House Remodel - Demolition Phase

I stopped by the house to drop off some things and all I heard was jack hammering inside and outside at the pool. Our poor neighbors! The bathrooms have been ripped up and here's a look at some other parts of the progress below.


Before


After
The wall on the right will be moved over, too, to open the walkway space, making the living room and dining room more connected. This stone work will be drywalled over and some tile will go around the frame of the fireplace.


This is looking from the living room toward the kitchen.
