Basement Renovation: Day 1

They arrived early Monday morning and made quick work of the demolition. The half of the wall between the utility room and the pole were the first to go. Next was the wall separating the storage room from the back closet
The light in the back was also taken down. The walls were apparently not secured very well to the existing framing so a lot of work was done to get that done. You can see all the joint compound along the dark grey walls in the post-electrician pictures.

The electricians didn't arrive until nearly 4:00 and weren't done for 3 hours. The ducts caused some issues. In the front room, one pair is not aligned and in the back room we had to go from 4 to 3. We were able to add an outlet along the new wall so we'll have an option for a floor or table lamp if it's not quite bright enough.
