We are right in the middle of more renovations. We had taken a break after the furnace was installed but we wanted to get some more stuff done before Christmas was upon us. We decided to hire a crackfiller/painter to do some minor wall repair and major painting, as well as a carpenter to put up some new drywall in the basement where the wallpaper refused to come off easily. We also picked out some new laminate flooring for the carpenter to install.
Here is our living room before. The walls were a light grey colour that was long overdue for a paint job.
Here is the living room after with it's warmer beige walls that match the dining room and kitchen.
This is the hallway with the light grey again.
Now with beige.
Here is the before picture of the foyer. You can't really tell because of the lighting in the picture but the top part is light grey while the bottom part under the chair rail is where I removed pink wallpaper.
Now the foyer is completely painted in beige.
Here is the basement family room. The brownish bottom part is wallpaper which was put right on after one coat of primer. It pulled off the sheetrock paper as I tried to remove it. No crackfiller would have been able to smooth that wall out properly.
You can see the job on the wallpaper removal that I did.
The is the family room with the new sheetrock installed and the carpet removed.
The flooring will be installed today and the painter should be able to get back in there by Tuesday.
We also had our bedroom painted. I guess I didn't take any before or after pictures of that but it looks very nice now.
