She also kept yelling that she does not have time to deal with these problems, nor is she feeling well enough to walk up and down the stairs to look at the fuse box in the basement.

It's cheaper than rent and there are no stairs!

Tile (and baseboards) was removed from the bedroom floors, due to mold and/or water damage, so there is just cement floors there right now.

The framing consists of pressure treated 2 x 6 lumber 12" on center that will sit on cement blocks.

If it was in NM or TX, I'd make that a Crepe Myrtle.Could build a wood stair rail that ties into the new columns that I mentioned earlier.

Can you convert the attic and add stairs?

The banks and government are just putting cement on the carcass instead of breathing a new life into it with rehab and sensible pricing. -- Dawn

I don't know what the floor plan is like but I've designed W/D under stairs, in the kitchen, in the garage, stacked in the master closet as well as the standard mudroom/laundry area.What's the plan like?

Took 2 hours to drain enough before I could pull it up the stairs.

My husband says it's nice and clean (cement floor).
