Here is an addition I’m doing now.
It comes out to about 4,500 SF under roof.
3 stories. Big project for a one-man-show. 😮
….And this one is a little commercial remodel.
It’s going to be a wine bar.
I really enjoy commercial work. It’s more demanding, more regulations and such.
Unfortunately, I don’t get the chance to do a ton of it. Maybe that’ll change. 🙂
First pic is how it looked when I started.
When the kitchen is done, I’ll post some better before-and-after pics.
Thanks for sharing the pictures. Do you get involved in the design versus following the client’s plans. The design part would be a lot of fun I would think.
I do.
I can save the client a lot of money and potential headaches, by getting involved early.
On that commercial remodel, I’ve done all the demo and framing, plumbing, electrical, low voltage/data, drywall, paint, tile, trim, fixtures.
Only thing I’m subbing is vinyl-plank flooring, and a couple roof penetrations.
Gets kind of crazy bouncing between all those different trades, especially on a relatively smaller sized project. 😆
Bigger projects I’ll sub out drywall. I really hate sanding the stuff. 😮

Nice looking work.
That is a big one for one man. I’m in the same boat working solo most all the time.Ron

I did the block on that myself.
One reason I went with block is because of the scale. It’s easier to lay up a block foundation solo, rather than setting and bracing forms by yourself.
Price-wise, it was almost the same, probably a little cheaper with block.
That was my biggest block job I’d ever done. I’m happy with how it came out. Less than an 1/8″ in level, and about a 1/4″ out of square in a 36’x42′ basement.
After 6 1/2 months, I finally got the permit for the Wine Bar. 😮
Unbelievable.
I did some of the work while I was waiting, buy still had to keep stuff open. Now I can really get rolling.
Fortunately, I have a really good inspector. He complained a little about the work being done before the permit was issued. I just said, don’t spend so long on plan check then.

That seems ridculously long. What was the hold-up?

You are right that is unbelievable. Too bad it took a winter project and moved into summer.

Evidently, they have only 2 people doing plan check and inspections in the City. One is in training. 😮
They ended up borrowing a part-time inspector from the County.
There’s a lot of folks pissed at the City right now.
