2nd Floor Reno - Week 6

This week, the electrical was done.  Here's a photo of the junction box where all of the bathroom switches will go.  Here we'll be able to control the in-floor heating, vanity sconces, exhaust fan, chandelier, recessed lights and the hallway light.



Recessed Lighting AND copper for the shower head.

Exhaust fan and wiring for speakers.  On a side note, we are running wire room by room so that, eventually, the whole house will have speakers. 



Closet light switch and pocket door frame


Vanity electrical - three outlets and three sconces


This photo was taken from inside the master bedroom.  The whole in the wall is for the cables and power that we'll run into the master closet for the TV that will go on this wall.    The plan is to have the cable box and dvd player run on RF (radio frequency) so we'll hide them both in the closet on a shelf. No need to have ugly TV equipment in the bedroom!



This is a photo of the 2nd floor hallway. Previously, there were two entrances into the bathroom.  One was by way of the master bedroom, and the second was through this door in the hallway, which made no sense.  It was probably fine with the previous owners because they had their laundry in there, but it made no sense to us, so we had it taken out.  Now the en suite is only accessible from the master bedroom, the way it should be.  We also removed the sconce (since it's now off-center with the door taken out), and moved the thermostat into master bedroom to completely clear the wall.


We needed another switch for the hallway light since there was only one at the top of the stairs, so we put this one in over by the bedrooms. This will be SUPER helpful trying to navigate the hallway/stairs at night :) Electricians were nice enough to add an outlet at the bottom as well.

We also needed another hallway switch for the BACK hallway (second staircase).  This is temporary though because this wall will turn into a closet in the future.
