Walls, Doors, Floors and Cabinets and Fixtures Phase 1

When generating dust from demo, drywall etc., seal the HVAC indoor unit to protect heat exchanger.

Walls

  1. We're planning to do interior painting ourselves, so any drywall work, etc. should leave the walls primer ready. Please leave the floor covered with protective paper.

  2. Please include baseboard trim, as appropriate, in the rooms where the floor is replaced.

  3. Remove wall sconces and gang boxes in BR#1 and BR#2. Patch and finish holes.

  4. Add backsplash above counter and stove throughout kitchen. Backsplash should not extend into Living Room—i.e., around the corner from the kitchen.

    American Oleon Visual Impressions Beige V111 – Quadrangle is available at Great Floors for $6.12 / sf.

    Edge trim will be needed for the exposed ends in the living room and by the pantry window.

  5. Remove stub wall beside refrigerator.

  6. Move refrigerator cubicle back to front door. Leave room for front door-knob.

  7. Remove and patch dryer vent in kitchen.

  8. Remove penetration, seal and finish wall.

  9. Remove and seal current stove exhaust vent. Repair roof at vent location or should we retain the roof exhaust as an attic vent and minimize roof repairs?

  10. Add stove vent above new stove location. Small rectangular vent pipe to minimize cupboard impact desired. \label{zephyr-breeze}

    We have already purchased Zephyr Breeze II Model AK1200W 30 inch, hood vent.

  11. Two magnetic knife strips are mounted on the existing cabinet. Please mount one each side on the upper cabinets, to either side of the sink.

  12. Replace drywall in kitchen.

  13. Remove wire raceway in ceiling between kitchen and living room and between bathroom and hall. Bathroom ceiling remain unfinished in Phase 1.

  14. Fill patch and tape kitchen and living room walls as needed.

  15. In living room and BR#2, tape, mud and finish ceiling. Semi-smooth finish.

  16. Do we need to cover kitchen, living room and BR#2 ceiling with drywall? Currently WW2 era plywood.

  17. Do we need to drywall BR#2 walls? Currently WW2 era plywood.

Except for replacing bathroom door with pocket door and removing the raceway, bathroom changes are Phase 2.

Water Heater Relocation

The water heater is behind a truss, which is 7'4" from attic door and the door is 12 ft. from the front of the house to the nearest edge of attic door. Dimensions are from the exterior of the house. The approximate location has been added to the View Home button.

Since there is adequate clearance for the hood vent over the stove, the water heater does not need to be relocated.

Crawl Space Plumbing

  1. Replace heat tape and insulate pipes as needed. Add additional heat tape to unprotected sections if any. Heat tape in crawl space is old, so replace with new. Let me know if the lifetime is less than 5 years.
  2. Do we need to replace the cast-iron drain? I assume ABS is recommended for the drains. Please advise.
  3. I assume PEX is the best choice for supply plumbing. Please don't re-use existing copper pipe.

Doors

Bathroom Door

  1. Raise door jamb close to ceiling.
  2. Replace door with pocket door. Similar to Simpson Door Company 8020 PRIMED FLAT PANEL bottom, with a pantry/closet.

Floors

Remove tile floor:

  • Kitchen
  • Living Room
  • Hallway
  • Bedroom #2

Do not remove floor in Bathroom, which is deferred to Phase 2.

Add water-resistant flooring similar to BR#1 bamboo to living room and kitchen. Bamboo flooring is acceptable for living room and hall. Include insulating underlayment.

TAS Bourbon Street Applewood LOLG1039 matches well with BR#1 and current counter, backsplash and cabinet selections.

Cabinets and Fixtures

Kitchen Cabinets and Fixtures

  1. For the kitchen counter, we like Latte Quartz from SBN Marble Granite & Tile, Inc.

  2. Relocate washer water supply to refrigerator cubicle. Remove washer drain.

  3. We have purchased the NORRSJÖN Sink, stainless steel.

    Please return to owner, the assembly tools provided with the NORRSJÖN.

    The sink includes fittings necessary for top mounting. Top mounting is needed to be compatible with drawer height in the sink cabinet. The drawers will include horse-shoe shaped shelves to accommodate plumbing.

    Coordinate with cabinet maker and plumber. The sink also includes the drain fittings but does not include pipe and fittings needed to connect the drain line. The existing piping is setup for two sink drains and a dishwasher drain; the new sink has only one.

    Assembly instructions:

    Manuals:

  4. VIMMERN Kitchen faucet with handspray, stainless steel color is installed in the existing kitchen sink. Please re-use the faucet.

    Please return to owner, the assembly tools provided with the VIMMERN.

  5. Add faucet and drain for stove. Drain should be capped for future use by a steam injecting oven. Faucet should have a pull-out nozzle that reaches front of stove for filling large pressure canner (13 inch height). Only cold water plumbing is needed.

  6. Lower and upper corner cupboards should have super susan (no pole) shelving so that maximum space can be accessed.

  7. Double lower cupboards should have pull out shelves, adjustable height if practical. Sink cupboard should have pull out shelves that work around the plumbing.

  8. Dovetail drawer fronts are desired.

  9. Installation cutout drawings are available for the dishwasher, stove and refrigerator.

    Size refrigerator cubicle for standard 36 inch; actual refrigerator is smaller.

    TODO: <21-11-18, John D. Fisher> Decide how to conceal the empty space. Work with cabinet maker to design a door that could be removed if we end up with a larger refrigerator later.

    Dishwasher:

  10. Relocate dishwasher and sink per drawing. Update plumbing accordingly. Add vent through counter top; the sink does not have mounting holes.

  11. Minimize sink drain obstruction in cabinet; pullout depth is 18 inches. The IKEA plumbing fittings work well. Also, the drain guard should be removable: IKEA has a threaded one, which is included with the NORRSJÖN Sink, already purchased.

  12. Relocate and replace irrigation control, outside, near the crawl space access. It should plug into the crawl space heat tape outlet.

  13. Kitchen cabinet doors should be Tahoe door, BEECH – Clear & Rustic, Natural Finish Hand Wipe Stain. Door panel should be rounded bevel, so it doesn't collect dust.

  14. Rev-a-Shelf Items:

    2 x Cut-To-Size Insert Peg System for Drawers 4DPS-3921 Includes 16 pegs each.

    1 x Accessories Peg Board Stainless Steel Lid Organizer for Drawers 5DCD-1-CR

    2 x Accessories Peg Board Stainless Steel Pot/Pan Organizer for Drawers 5DLD-1-CR

  15. Drawer and Cabinet pulls:

    AME-BP29355ORB Amerock Candler 3-3/4" (96mm) c.c. Cabinet Pull (Oil Rubbed Bronze) 5.99 ea.

Bedroom #2 Cabinets and Fixtures

  1. BR#2 will be used as a laundry room and smoking lounge.
  2. Add a high flow, very low noise ceiling exhaust fan for controlling humidity and exhausting smoke.
  3. Add dryer vent
  4. Add washer water supply and drain.
  5. Installation drawings for washer and dryer are available showing recommended water supply, drain and dryer vent locations.
