Well I started this last fall and ran out of time.I have about 3/4's of the blueboard stripped out of it that was water damaged.Really only about 1/3 was water damaged.The bathroom wall by the shower (rear bathroom) between the shower and the bunkbeds is being replaced as well.I will add a skylight above the shower for more headroom.That will cover the current broken vent and I am going to find a new location for one of those fantastic vents.I am using only the bottom bunk and will leave the kitchen table up.During the ceiling/roof repair I will rebuild the frig stack to allow for a larger updated frig.The coating to be used on the roof is snow roof systems along with seal sealers.I need to make the cut-outs for the skylight/new vent before I can go ahead with the roof repair and remodleing of the inside.As I am sure you all know-leaks like these travel along way.From what I was able to see the water came from a broken vent and travel to the back of the roof a/c.While I wait for the weather to get better,I will complete stripping the remaining blue board and take down the front cabinet as I did with the rear one.I have considered moding the rear cabinet to allow for a hood/micowave about the stove and need to measure to see if I have enough room by cutting out the rear cabinet.I will update you as work goes along.

As you good folks saw,I am current looking for a Tiger XL to remodel as well.

 

Thanks,

 

Gary
