Saying Goodbye to the Old: Attic Insulation Removal
As we approach the construction site seen in the video above, it’s hard to miss the mountain of trash bags nearby. Would you believe there are over 40 bags? That’s right, we’ve been busy removing layers of attic insulation. Why, you ask? We’re about to convert this attic space into something truly remarkable. But before we can do that, we need a clean slate.

Sistering Beams for Structural Integrity
The next challenge on our list involves enhancing the structural integrity of the building. We’re in the process of sistering beams, a technique that reinforces existing beams with new ones. It’s a crucial step to ensure the stability of the property for years to come. However, this task comes with its own set of challenges. The attic insulation we removed earlier added complexity, making it essential to clear it all out before proceeding.
From Wallpaper to Wonders: Demolition Highlights
Amidst the hustle and bustle of the construction site, you’ll notice the remnants of wallpaper clinging to the walls. The space is amid a thorough demo, and the transformation is underway. Every nook and cranny of this two-family home is being revitalized, from the kitchen to the bathrooms. And that’s not all—imagine the comfort of central AC and heat gracing this space, making it a haven of modern living.
