Seems to me that foundation repair should be first on that list. Seriously, I wouldn't do anything until I had that thing leveled.

I've got two proposals. Just waiting for the green light from the owner. Just clearing and demo till it's fixed.

What do you bet those appliances are 50 years old and still work? Not like the craptastic stuff we buy today.

I would say 50 years old is a safe bet. And yeah, they were working. Pretty crazy.

Do you mind if I ask how you handle the kitchen and bath cabinets?

Asking because I am thinking of starting up a Kitchen and Bath cabinet design service firm with my son. As an architect, I have done my share of custom home design. While always learning, I understand the layout and specifications side of this part of the project. We are evaluating some software, 20/20 Design Flex, that looks like a much better way to specify cabinets, finishes, and fixtures. Just trying to figure out where to go from there.

Appreciate any insight.

This 1000%! They are both hideous and beautiful at the same time.

Are the AC lines running into the house via a gutter downspout?

Yes, but it is a downspout that is not connected to the gutter. It just goes up through the gable into the attic. I will try and get a pic today.

That's interesting

I was just asking because on ac's where the lines are run externally up the wall and into the soffit, sometimes they get pretty close to the bottom of the roof decking and can be a problem during reroof.

But if they ran into the gable end like that then you're all good.

Incredible. When I saw the early pics I was thinking that the best approach involved gasoline and a match.
