The second phase of our attic project was completed this past week when a local contractor came in and put in new steps into the attic. The old steps required you to duck under the roofline to get into the attic and we wanted to bring the steps up the center of the room-to-be. At the same time, they installed a roof cap which was needed to vent hot air since we have insulated the entire third floor.
The framing for the new stairway took a chunk out of the corner of the boys' current room but was a lot less intrusive than we imagined. We're not sure if we're going to make it a closet or a desk area, but we have a lot more space remaining than we expected.
Next up is more drywalling and wiring and heating and cooling and insulating... point being, still a long ways to go.
