Tempe Home Remodel

Have you ever started one little project that somehow explodes into a much bigger project?  Well that’s what happened to our home remodel.  We were just going to remove the popcorn ceilings, paint all the walls, and replace the bedroom carpets.  However, after two different renters, it needed a little more help.  So, we ended up redoing virtually everything except replacing the tile floors in the remainder of the house.  Every interior surface of the house was repainted.  Newly textured ceilings (previously popcorn) required three coats of paint!
 
Vast amounts of paint were used.

Finished Master Bedroom
Almost complete Living Room accent wall










Everything we ordered delivered and stacked in Living Room

 New lights, mirrors, cabinets, counter tops, and toilets in the two bathrooms.

Still waiting for custom molded counter top and sink
Completely new cabinets in the pantry/laundry room.  

Kitchen Demolition
 New everything (appliances, cabinets, counters, and sink) in the kitchen.  

New Kitchen
At Xmas we treated ourselves to a matching SS Refrigerator
It’s like an entirely different house and I have to say we love it!  I also have to say it was two long exhausting months.  All we did, day after day, was get up, drive to the house, work on the house until dark (without our household lamps, there were only lights in the bathrooms and kitchen), drive back to “the 5th”, eat dinner (and have a glass of wine), and go to bed.  Then start all over the next day.  After 18 months of vacationing “on the road”, this was really, really hard…but worth it.
