Farmhouse Renovation
Reflecting back on a home renovation that we did, got me thinking about how a little reno can change very quickly into something more.
This home was an old farmhouse with two bedrooms that were always cold, they just couldn’t keep them warm. Once the drywall was removed, it showed that there was little insulation in the walls just as everyone had suspected, they needed to be upgraded to current building code with an insulation value of R22. The new insulation was installed and re-drywalled. Then the rooms needed new baseboards and to be repainted.
The windows were also being updated to a new, modern, double-glazed low E windows so there would be less heat loss. Then those windows were re-trimmed as well. In the beginning, the idea was to just provide more insulation.
A seemingly simple job became more costly because of all the labour involved to put it all back together. But in the end, they had a much more energy efficient home and most importantly, a comfortable warm room to sleep in!
