69) Paint, clean, recycle … Wait, something new

sound insulation sm

In between talking to subtrades and the regional district and shopping forĀ  building materials, I usually just spend all my time on site painting, cleaning, painting, cleaning, making trips to the recycle depot, and more cleaning. Today, a break in the routine: Aaron and I installed Roxul “Safe and Sound” insulation (sound barrier and fire-proof, made of rock (??!)) between the main floor and the basement. It’s a messy damn job. This investment of about $500 will give us or guests or our nanny in old age peace and quiet. Our last home had this insulation between the two floors, and it was very quiet both upstairs and down.

Awwwww yeah, that’ll be nice when we crash the place and pump up the jams! It’ll be like 2003 again, minus the jello.
