Roofer Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Here's a little project I have been working on. Added almost 1000 sq ft to our rambler and a second walkout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach1310 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Looks good. What kind of space are you adding? Is that some toungue and groove for the walls/ceiling in one of the pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roofer Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Thanks Coach. It will be a living room and Rec. room. The basement will be storage for the time being.I just picked up half the load of knotty pine 6" T&G. Will be doing the walls and ceiling with that.

Surface Tension Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Looks good Roofer. Having a walk out is definitely worth the extra time and money for drop footings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roofer Posted November 28, 2008 Author Share Posted November 28, 2008 Gotta be some money in roofing??? Something to keep you busy until Spring. Ha, you would know more than I do about that. I will be busy working and working on this for awhile. Will have the inside finished in a few weeks, if I ever have some time to work on it. Did 12 square off and on today and will be working on the addition tonight. It's getting close to the ends of my wits, but it's better than sitting on the couch with a case of beer I guess.

Roofer Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Thanks. I have about 3/4 of the pine done now, and will be picking up the rest this week. I will have some more pics soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmboy1 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Looks good! It will be great when it is all done.Do I see a brick ledge on the outside or am I seeing things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roofer Posted December 2, 2008 Author Share Posted December 2, 2008 The ledge is for a concrete slab in the future. The retaining wall will continue to the new addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmboy1 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 The ledge is for a concrete slab in the future. The retaining wall will continue to the new addition. I was wondering since I did not see brick on the rest of the house. Way to think forward enough to plan for the future. The costs now is minimal, but would cost a lot in the future, and we will not have any heaving to deal with on the new slab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roofer Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 A few updated pics. I am finished with the woodwork for the most part. I made all of the extension jambs and trim out of the knotty pine left over from the walls. Applying a few coats of polycrylic now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxMN Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Looks great Roofer! What you putting on the floor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roofer Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 There will be just regular carpet on the floor. Thought about wood because my neighbor does it for living, but too much wood echoes. It pretty loud in there now with nothing to absorb the sounds.
