Home Up Bathroom rehab Kitchen rehab Living room window Exterior paint Basement Slab Front Door Bathroom tile

We started working on the house immediately when we moved in December 2003.  We had a toilet and a sink in the upstairs half-bath, but no shower or bath.  Also, all the drain lines were clogged with rust since the house had been unoccupied for 20 years before we moved in.  Our two big projects were the main bathroom and the kitchen in 2004.  Time only allowed for the living room window restoration in 2005.  For 2006, we began to tackle the exterior paint and did some basement slab painting.  And in 2007, we were a bit more ambitious and attacked the front of the house with some long overdue repairs and paint.  We got started early in 2008, and finally put up some tile in the bathroom.
