Here We Go

Here we go ~ off with the first bits of sheet rock and we can see the very thin plastic used for vapor barrier and the moldy and poorly installed insulation.  

 

Around the outlet the vapor barrier was just hacked out allowing warm inside air to get into the walls and form ice and in the spring melt and mold, 40 years of this and insulation is shot.  The ice behind the outlet was an inch thick and covered most of the lower wall

  

 

Josh started the work of sheet rock removed, and then we formulated a shopping list for the home repair store and put Bear to work on removing the rest of the sheet rock.  By the time we returned one hour later ~ val-la ~ the job was done! Way to go Bear! You sheet rock!
