What started with a leaky pipe in the wall, turned into tearing up two layers of flooring and then a total renovation. The water from the pipe had actually gotten under the top layer of flooring (laminate) so I was glad to have that torn up so that we didn't end up with mold and mildew under there. Underneath the laminate was a layer of linoleum and underneath that was hardwood floor. Yusaku pulled up everything himself including all of the many staples in the hardwood (a process that involved lots of bloody knuckles).
The work continued as Yusaku eventually pulled out all of the cabinets and countertops and then assembled and installed new cabinets from Ikea. We also painted the walls. Still need to have countertops and sink installed, put up backsplash, wait on out-of-stock cabinets and door fronts to come in and build/install them, and put down new flooring by back door. It's a long process but Yusaku has been working hard on it every chance he gets. Can't wait to see it when it's all done!
