This morning, the remaining studs were put up for the walls, and it’s starting to look like a room!

The next thing to do is the electrical, s while the guys took their lunch break I mapped approximately where we would need outlets, light switches and overhead lighting for the laundry, studio and garage.

They discovered that some of the electrical had been routed in a very shoddy and dangerous way. Our house was a flip, and the wiring was not at all to code, and actually a pretty serious fire hazard.

They pulled down a light fixture and where the bulb plugged into the fixture, you could see a bunch of black burn marks. Yikes! Thank goodness we decided to do this now.
