Stairs!

This week brought Scott Bradford of Bradford Construction out to the Flip house to help Brain and Mike remove & replace the stairs from the main floor to the second as well as relocate the existing stairs to the basement from one location to another!  This was fascinating to me! Check out some of the stages below.

Old stairs are out and stringers are up. “Stringers” are the 3 foundational pieces of wood that form the height and length of the stairs. 

The new stairs will come out into the kitchen 5 more inches than Brian was hoping.  The stairs they took out fit the space but had been jimmied to do so and were not evenly spaced. Below, Will is standing in the old stairway to the basement.  If you look at the picture above these are located to the right of Mike ( in gray) behind the studs by the white door.  Where will they get moved too?…

Lunch break! On my days off I am the food truck!

New staircase going down!  Under the ones going up!  Love Brian’s design!

Two down one to go!

With the new stairs in place the house is beginning to take on a new look.  A very satisfying week.
