Raising the Ground Floor Ceiling





After 90 years the ground floor ceiling had sagged, cracked, and needed to be replaced. I tore out the old ceiling of lath and plaster knowing that the replacement would be drywall. Ed Grove and I were joined by Mike Ford for a fun-filled day of drywall hanging. I rented a rolling scaffold and a drywall lift. The next day I taped and mudded the ceiling before taking the scaffold back. Final touches had to be handled by step ladder. Before sealing the ceiling, I took the opportunity to add light and wiring for sound.
