Attic Project

[deerfield]

Since moving into our house ten years ago, the attic has been nothing but dark, dusty, dangerous, unused space with a mangle of cloth wrapped wiring draped over joists. House was built in the 30s. Three weeks ago with guidance from a journeyman electrician we began the process of rewiring the second floor to clean up the attic. Biggest challenge was pulling wire up from the service panel in the basement. Second biggest challenge was hauling plywood sheathing from Home Depot up to the attic. Project was completed yesterday with installation of an attic ladder. Take a look. We now have lots of lighting, 600 square feet of storage space, and an exhaust fan to help moderate temperature in the summer. Even put electrical outlets up there for future convenience. Looking forward to gathering up clutter from around the house and putting it up in the attic!
