The Reno Story- June 2024
So I am continuing to document the process.
Moving more dirt.
Holes were dug for the footers
for the upper level deck and stairway.
We are loving how the "crawl space"
actually became a usable storage room.
A pile of stone was delivered.
Lots of wood was stacked in the driveway.
The roof trellises were unloaded on the lawn.
The lower patio extension was poured.
They pulled out the non-working for a long time
dishwasher and cut a hole in the side of the house
to do a temporary move of plumbing.
You could see the original burnt orange vinyl flooring
under the white 1990's update.
Great for hearing the chirping birdies better.
Some walls started to go up.
The floors and walls happened very quickly.
Windows were cut out and
they started to feel like rooms.
We were at the beach for our family vacation
and our contractor Aldo Rizo texted us more updates.
Was pretty amazing to see the little house now
flanked by the tall spaces.
You can't see any of this new space
from the front of the house.
So our little rambler will have a surprise out back.
The architect was able to do the addition
and not lose any of the windows for sunlight
in the original back of the house.
How fun to see this really start to look like
"something."
