Everything including the kitchen sink

Our 1932 Farmhouse sink from west Mass. finally came in the other day. It was so gorgeous it launched us into a a full kitchen reno. Like anything other reno. When you open one can of worms and other quickly opens.

 Here you can see a row of drawers to the right of the sink. We will be demoing them to make space for a 18" dishwasher. With just the tow of us there is no need for a 24". Plus we just don't have the space. It's funny how a drawing looks so much bigger than the real thing. This is the case in many other areas.

Here with the help of our handyman, Manual we made quick work of demoing the old tile counter tops.

(Prepping the counters for soapstone.)

It fits right in as if it was always there.

While the walls were open we found that the galvanize pipes were rotted and leaking.

(No wonder we had no water presser.)

We since than changed them out for copper. This improved the water presser by30%. It's a good thing we caught it while the walls were open. Once the pipes were replaced we insulated the walls and put up (green board) drywall.
