Real quick update, I demo’d the little half wall in the office area. As simple as that. Was nice that the guys used screws to assemble it so I was able to pry off the drywall and then unscrew everything will little mess.
- I first cut the drywall with a jab saw, cutting up from the drain pipe hole, all the way up to the cap trim.
- here I’ve carefully pried half the drywall off.
- I’ll remove this last drywall piece and to create a crawl space to fix the HVAC vent, and for future access in case pipes or wires need to be fixed or run.
- Yay! I’ve removed the half wall. I can start laying out where the new walls will go and extend the platform to support the cabinets.
- This floor vent is hidden under my office floor, they never cut a hole in the floor for it. I plan on going in and rescuing it as part of this project.
