The Bridge | Part 3 |

Tuesday: Our goals today were to finish taking down the burnt wood paneling in the kitchen. Also, we thought we would be productive and tackle the bathrooms while we were at it. The goal for the Hall Bath was to remove the cabinet since it was rotten.


| To finish Day 1 work, we took off the burnt paneling. The wood paneling was literally holding the pipe together in the laundry room. Once the pressure was removed, the pipe popped apart. Water spewed everywhere. Come to find out the only way to turn off the main water line is by turning off the church building's water. Go figure. This little surprise was also a God thing. We were not planning on removing the paneling from this wall but obviously we need to fix the pipe and the wood was rotted inside the wall. Are you catching on to a theme here? |

| Here's what the Hall Bath looked like when we began. |

| Since the cabinet was rotten and surrounded by tile and concrete, the tile on the wall had to be removed too. |

| Once we got the cabinet out, this was the wall beside the cabinet. Not good. More investigating to be done. |

| Looking productive!!! |

| Ok, not so much. When we got the cabinet out, the floor was also concrete. When we removed the concrete on the floor, we found out there wasn't a floor at all. |

| The tub was sitting on a rotten floor joist and no wood support. It's a God thing that we found it before it fell through the floor. |

| As if the Hall Bath wasn't enough, here's the Master Bath wall. More work to be done. |

| This was the shower wall. The reason the other bathroom wall was missing is because the Master Bath shower was leaking. |
