Third Floor
Home Up Kitchen Wing Wing - Part 2 Wing - Final Push Dining Room Front Hall Half Bath Parlor Porch Music Room Second Floor Third Floor

 

December 1999

The third floor was totally opened up in preparation for the new HVAC system to be installed in the attic above.

March 2000

The third floor is finally ready for close-in.  HVAC in, new electrical, plumbing, and for the first time in the house – INSULATION!

Next comes rock lath and plaster…

(No, we are not going to keep the brick open; it all gets new, real plaster.)

March 28, 2000

Finally the close-in with rock lath.  Next comes the mud.

 

Almost ready for plaster...

Two coats of brown coat come first (gypsum & Purlite).

Mid May 2000

Finally the white coat (which is lime mixed with molding plaster).  What a transition!

The third floor is a real hideaway.

This is where the master bedroom, closet room (yes, I said "room"), and extended master bath.
