The Next Home Project

So somewhere we had this crazy idea to put a new wood floor in the sunroom. I knew it was poorly insulated as I could see the insulation falling down underneath from outside.















So I tore up the carpet and the first thing I found is that the addition was simply built on an existing deck, no flashing out on the deck so we had moisture coming in under the wall.















We put Dad to work :)















Here's the crummy insulation job, it was held up with thin foam on the bottom and was falling in several places.
















Also the floor drops about 1" in the corner, so my plan to address that is to double up all the joists as they are 24" centers anyways, and just make up the difference in that corner with those new joists. Then nail some strips on the side of each joist and lay plywood down and reinsulate. I also have to put a few footers in the middle to support.

We're putting a new door in, that will be in about 2 weeks from Lowes. And the flooring is going to be bamboo
