John Schwarz, our contractor helping us with the first floor project, stopped by yesterday as we were doing electrical demo to take a look at our progress. I showed him what we had done with removing the wall, and we talked about the next steps. I'll be redoing the electric and heating, but we'll be needing John's help on several of the tasks.
One of my concerns with the project is existing sag in the floors, both getting rid of it as much as is practical, and preventing future problems. All of the floors in the house have the same design, with joists running from one side of the house to the other, interrupted by the opening for the staircases. Running parallel to the staircase is a single joist, which is toe nailed into the main joists in either end.
