Wayne a trailer is definitely the way to go when renovating.
Even getting a used one. If you are lucky and have a friend with one than borrowing is always better than owning. :wink:
I rebuilt most of my home on and off over the last 12 years and should have purchased a trailer even before my RAV. But I did not know weather I was to live in Italy or CAN so I never did. :roll:
Hopefully this summer I will make simple aluminum one.
Because I am going to keep the RAV in great condition for many years, I regret packing it with large, sharp items. Even with towels and blankets she still gets abused.
I seen picks of your kitchen. Is part of your project to gut it and rebuid a new one?
My last project was re-building all the upper floor/ interior side of the exterior walls with R10 insulation. That and a few other things has brought my house over 60 % Gas saving over my neighbors home this winter. I still have to get some more data to get solid confirmation but I have no double I can reach 70% or more even without a high efficiency furnace. Plus there are the savings in air con., furnace motor, life of furn. & Air Con. units, better air quality, environment friendly, backup generator runs less, etc…..
The only insulation these old homes had was the actual cinder block, bricks, air space and plaster. But I was amazed in how inefficient many new homes are today. :shock:
My next project is to get a hospital type air purification system that I have been looking at for 5 months. That, added with what I am working on now, which is 2 fresh air intakes, 1 for breathing, 1 for combustion and fans.
Aren’t houses a joy? Even with time plus money consuming maintenance and re-modeling we still love them..
Cheers,
