The garage after it's old floor was removed.

Once upon time, in a quiet village, stood a small bungalow, which suffered from neglect because its owners didn't have any money to maintain it properly. A sign "for sale" had been standing in the front garden for a very long time, but nobody was interested since the bungalow was of very modern design, which was a sharp contrast to the rest of the historic village. Day after day the wood rotted away and nature slowly took over the garden, until only a complete make-over could help the bungalow to survive...

This is what remains of a nearly unusable flower bed at our front door. The surrounding stone and some of the concrete had been removed a year or so ago. What remains is nearly solid concrete and other methods of removal were useless. Finally we rented a jackhammer to rid our house of this.

We got half the room done before we called it quits.

Rule says: each stairway should have light dedicated to stairs. Said light should be controlled by a 3-way switch, one positioned at the top of the stairs, one at the bottom of stairs. Except for stairs to an unfinished basement.. in that case a single switch at the top of the stairs suffice.

 

So now I have to change that one-pole switch to a 3-way. that means ripping out the old 2-conductor and replacing it with a 3-conductor NMD.

 

Well and that I'm moving the light itself from the base of the stairs to the top.. So off to cutting up drywall again.
