Well, I didn't do a build thread on my truck, this time I'll do it right and start a thread from the beginning.

Here it goes. The grown up build thread. House mods v1.0

Paint has already been done, so I done messed up already, but I'll document the rest of the projects.

Tomorrow starts flooring. All of this jacked up carpet is gone. The entire House will get dark wood floors, minus the bathrooms and kitchen.

I'll update the thread as it goes on.

I have some USB integrated wall outlets on the way, and the cable jacks are in the center of the walls for wall mounted TV's, that was done today. Tomorrow I'll finish the outlets in the center of the walls.
New carriage/porch lights are on the way, and the current recessed lights will be updated with new as soon as we pick some.

I'll get some good pics the next few days.





Started on the stair railing. Spindles will get white paint like the rest of the trim. Rail will get dark stain that will be used on cabinets.

Here's a few more pics of the rooms we are starting with.
Dining room, formal living room, entry way and office.
Carpet is being ripped up in the office first, paint is also being finished

Can't wait for this nasty ass tile to go in the entry way

Another view


Hallway to the garage
 
Thanks fellas!
I hate carpet. Can always throw a rug down beneath the bed so you step on carpet when you wake up lol.
I'll never have carpet in another house again if it's up to me

We ditched carpet everywhere but the basement and living room. Best move we made with the house.

I didn't think I would like it either, but we have it now and I like it.

House will look good J.Mo!
