Knocking Down a Wall
We had a wall knocked down recently, and we are really happy about the result.
Previously, as you walked into our front door, you were immediately met with a small front room and an awckward wall. Now, when you walk in, there is a big wide and long room, perfect for wrestling in, entertaining, and just lounging in.

Lessons Learned
- Hire some help
- Master Electricians are too expensive; get a normal, “non-master” electrician.

That looks great Peter! That looks like it was just a random wall. I think that open spaces are more conducive to “livability” in a home.
When I was introduced the the random wall only a couple of months ago, I did not realize how serious you were about its demolition. Good work! It looks like you guys got just the results you were hoping for.

Wow looks great! When I moved into my home last year, I hired an independent contractor to knock down a few walls too. (I know what I’m capable of and knocking down walls is not one of those things…) Really makes a big difference to open up rooms.
