This weekend we worked on putting the ceiling plaster board up in the guest bathroom. We first filled the cavities with soundproofing insulation. That way if Jeff is up in the loft tap dancing, I won’t hear him while I soak in the tub. The walls will get the same treatment.
Speaking of sound insulation, we also put it in the kitchen counter walls around where the dishwasher will be. This product is called Roxul Safe & Sound rock wool insulation.
Things are shaping up in the kitchen. It will be a bit of a mishmash of used cabinets, plywood countertops and simple 2X4 framing. But we hope to have it functional in a month or two.
We are a weekend or two away from laying the bathroom floor. The toilet will go on top of that. After that, we’ll hook up the water lines to the toilet and bathtub, and VOILA! indoor plumbing!
