Well I have been neglectful of keeping this updated. Mainly from working on the kitchen itself. I found the root cause of the entire situation. It is what I thought. A leaking drain pipe.  This pipe broke in two when I pulled it out. It was missing a bit on the bottom at the break. |

Here is a tip for any one that needs to pull up a hardwood floor for repairs and plans to relay the usable pieces. I have never see this anywhere but learned it the hard way. If your floor has ever been sanded when you relay it, you will need to sand it again. This is because when it was sanded the boards will not all be the same thickness. Actually they will vary significantly. In my project I was able to save 2/3 of the floor. Upon relaying it I can see major differences in the smoothness of the floor. There are many pieces that are thiner than the surronding ones. So if you tend to relay used foors remember you will have to resand and finish them. |

Kitchen demolition and floor reconstuction: Of course the kitchen has taken first priority here, even over updating the web site. You would understand if you've ever seen that look in your wife's eyes of panic when she looks at her kitchen, and see stuff (dirt) that should reside out side of the house, in the middle of the floor. This really translates to unwanted critters with/or without legs could get in the house. So now you understand the haste needed on this project. Well enough of my worries here is the picture progress so far. Last you saw I had taken a peak at the damage. Just removed one cabinet and part of the floor to revile the source. The drain pipe has had a small leak for a long time. It must have increased in the last few months to show there was a problem. I pealed back the floor and some more cabinets to see the extent of the damage.  |
