I thought I would add a separate thread for posting house reno progress pics....and the eventual new shop...instead of clogging up the Benz build thread.
Pressured washed the deck on the old house - part of getting it ready to list for sale later this week:
My existing shop 20' x 30' - going to miss it.
We are going from that backyard to this....so there will be a bit of work to do..
New house kitchen redo..
Bye bye old kitchen - note the 7' high dropped ceiling - easy to see by the side window.
old floor out - tons of work
Getting pretty close to installing flooring and new cabinets finally. The majority of the ceiling is now at least 8' high.
Nice view from the eating area of the kitchen and of the vaulted roof in this space.
that 20x30 shop has only the one garage door that is in the photo?
holy cow removing that drop ceiling makes a large difference
tell all of your local car enthusiast friends where the best place is to meet other local enthusiasts!

Yeah - ceiling is waay better. Just one door 8' wide..kind of a pain but this is just the shop the house also has a garage attached that is for more daily in/out.
Some more old house pics...pretty sure these will not be to everyone's taste...

Nice, I love the old place. I know someone that's starting to collect vintage/70s teak furniture like some of that, trying to offload any? haha
That higher ceiling makes a world of difference, I'm sure.
Thanks - We have been collecting interesting mid century furniture for a while now - none for sale at this point.
dropped ceiling.. ugh

Den/kitchen/eating area floor was a mess - totally not level and flat. Spent most of the weekend replacing some of the plywood subfloor, pouring self leveler in place to smooth the transition and then "morter-ing" in Ditra-heat membrane in the whole space. The Ditra is not cheap at all but worth it - both a fantastic anti-cracking membrane and has "risers" for stringing your in floor heating cables. It allows for pretty much the thinnest buildup under tiles.
In floor heat wiring will be done on Wed and tiling should be all done next week end.
New sub-floor at the end of the room.

Getting there...
Ready for in floor heat and tiles
Yep, love love love Ditra. Can't wait till I get to re-do the tile in our bathrooms and kitchen to get some of that down

More ceiling scraping...I dislike this process...

Congrats!
That tile looks classy, I like it. I don't envy you on the ceiling scrapping, though... although it is in my future as well.
Looking great so far!

Living room and dining room floors in.
Coming up for air.....I've now got 1400sqft of flooring in and 3 rooms fully painted...OK back under again...
Holy Sh!t we had a lot of crap built up at the old place - 18 years of stuff.... just about all moved out. We have 2 days left before we hand over the house...
Can't even imagine! I couldn't believe that amount of stuff we had stuffed into our one bedroom apartment and to sheds after 11 years.
All moved Finally!! - My wife and I worked straight through from 6am Wed till 5:30pm Thursday to move the last of it and clean and fix all the fiddly little shit.... I think I will stay at this new place for a while.
Kitchen cabinets just about all leveled and screwed in place. Need to order all the filler panels, gable ends, door and drawer faces now.
Looking good.

Getting better!
