The guts are almost 100% in the house! By guts, clearly I am referring to all the very important pipes, conduit, cords, insulation & ducts. Another way to say guts is to say, the incredibly important, expensive, but ultimately hidden bits of the house that make it work like a house should in 2016! We didn't necessarily know how far our house would be gutted.....but all of the old guts were taken out of the house. Or at least 99% of the guts. The 1% will stay hidden in place, but not be used.
So here are some photos of the guts. We are really looking forward to our inspection as passing it will signal a huge next phase of our project. Once the guts pass their inspection, the finishes begin being installed! Drywall, tile, hardwood, paint, trim finishes, cabinets, vanities; all the things we are excited about as they bit by bit pave the way for us to move in!

The SpacePak ducts for the family room hide inside the built in bench in the sunporch this room required some creativity :) Please note the pink/salmon paint on the bench lid leaning on the left wall! |

Also note the floor covering where I'm standing that was hidden inside the built in bench! So many funny things hide inside our house! |

Plumbing stuff in the trench in the basement floor. Yes there is still an open trench in the basement floor. I didn't say the guts were all the way there yet! |
