Unfortunately, the news isn't always good news when you tackle a house project. We knew we had some termites based on our kitchen, we just didn't know how bad. The room that is going to be our laundry room is off the back of the house and from the looks of it, I'm going to have to tear most of it down and start from scratch. The good news is, it looks like the termites showed up sometime in the past and all the sill plates and a few of the uprights have been replaced with treated lumber. Since termites usually stick to an organic diet free from chemicals, these additions made by the previous owners saved the room from literally falling off the house. The truest sense of the word, "literally".
All that to say, I know what I'm doing next weekend.
