Automated construction: boosting on-site productivity using a platform-based approach
Don’t ever feel bad if you need to ask for help around the house or with having someone watch the kids for you for a little bit.
So things like the wall paneling, multiple colors of peel n stick tile, and terrible paint colors, were all perfectly lovely at one time, I’m sure.. Here’s one spot where I’ve pulled up the peel n stick tile off the hardwood and then haven’t done anything about it since.Even I’m contributing to the madness!
Why did I do that?Even places where the previous owners did a quick and not-so-quality job are understandable, because who hasn’t done a little quick fix “just for now” and then left it for way too long?Well, now it’s up to us to deal with all these things, but that’s what we set out to do, so we only have ourselves to thank for that, really!
Old houses can build up quite the impressive smell.Cooking smells, pet smells, people smells, garbage, leaky roofs, all building up over 114 years… and yeah.
Luckily a good primer before painting, and good basic renovations do help a lot.. Sloping Floors and General Non-Levelness.
I don’t think “level” was really a thing back when this house was built.We used Patio Paints made by DecoArt because they’re made to go outside and be weather resistant.
You could always use regular paint though and cover them with some kind of a sealer too.The paint takes about 15 minutes to dry..
If you want to let your kids go wild with this, but don’t want your garden to look like a rainbow threw up in it, then do what I did!Only bring out a few colors of paint for this project.
