The house is bought. The ideas are brewing, but before a single wall can be painted or a cabinet can be hung all of the unwanted must go.
For demo day, we utilized a 15 yard dumpster which turned out to be too small. We ordered a second 15 yard dumpster and filled up just as fast as the first.
This particular house came with many “bonuses”: a couch, sofa, all of the appliances, and a garage full of more unwanted items. We demolished both bathrooms and the kitchen due to obvious moisture issues. Not to mention an overwhelming need of an upgrade.
Here is a slide deck of before and after demo photos.
The inside was cluttered as well as the outside. The outside of the house was surrounded by 5 tall Oak trees that grew within 5 feet of the house. The proximity created concerns with roots invading the foundation, abundance of moisture from all of the shade and even moss growth on the roof. We gathered estimates for tree removal as early as the due diligence period knowing the trees had to go. As an added bonus, our tree service is milling the oak logs into board for future projects.
