Not only did we live through the mess we had to replace the hot water heater due to sludge because of local water/ new kitchen sink( sunk it into my farmhouse table)/ new bathroom sink ( I fought to get them to put in plywood triangle to put the sink in!)/ new shower and new stool ( never had a reg bathroom because it was my dad' auto repair shop)and then on top of replacing or adding all these appliances - flames sprang out under our side by side refrigerator and we had to replace it and my stove quit and we had to replace it all in the same week!!!

It was a mess and I am glad that was long ago now!! We built new walls during the renovation and put a new furnace in just 10 months before all this happened!
Insurance paid for most of it because of all the storm damage due to the ice. We had water running down through the walls in almost every room and we replace three doors and one of those doors was moved a few feet over on the same wall.

It would have been easier if it hadn't been all winter but we managed!
