Vents = CHECK!

BEFORE:


AFTER:

Yes, there's still a hole, but the metal component is completely gone!!!! The hole is probably 12-14 inches worth of hole, but in a few weeks, it'll be covered w/ a new floor and so it won't matter anyway!!!!!


I circled the area where it was before ... it's hard to imagine, but it was there. I was completely impressed the guys could get it out of there. I had a bit of a runaround getting their quote formally/in writing and getting them nailed down for a time to do the work, but they did a fantastic job ... I'm seriously and insanely pleased!


This is now in our laundry room. Seriously, I had NO IDEA how huge this would be .... but it carries our air over to under the sink. There's a vent that comes out in the 'toe-kick' area under the sink. I forgot to take a photo of it, sorry. We've both noticed the air blowing, though, and think it was a great call!

There is a slight 'T' off to the right ... eventually we'll finish off about 100 more square feet of the basement into a more 'formal' office for me to work in. It doesn't have a vent, and we had them put it in while they were doing the other vent work anyway. Even though that project is 12-18 months off, it should be easier when it's time!

Now to sand and prep the walls, then prime + paint.

In other home projects, the hinges for the orange room have arrived. They aren't a 100% perfect fit, but they're close enough. I've put a few on and have about 4 more doors to go. I can hardly wait for this room to be finished!!!!
