Daniel Troglin - Construction

New job - carpenter at GoldWing Construction in Edmonton, Alberta.

We had to relocate a toilet about 6” because of installing a new low step shower. Code requires 15” clearance between fixtures and center of toilet.

Asbestos abatement team opened the bulkhead. Plumber disconnected old toilet plumbing. Concrete core guys bored new hole. Plumber re-routed drain.

I added a steel plate to cover the hole, filled them both with fire resistant insulation, fire caulked the plate (2nd picture), then built a new bulkhead (3rd-5th pictures) and patched the floor from above.

Before and after.

Oftentimes in remodeling we know what we’re getting into.
Sometimes in remodeling we find unexpected problems.
Today was the later.
We were not planning on doing anything under the kitchen sink, but when we find something like this, it requires attention.
The old drain pipe was also nearly 100% clogged with debris and rust. Thing should work much better now.
With California Dream Construction

In the trenches with California Dream Construction.

We really dig our job!

Project progress. With California Dream Construction doing some heavy lifting.

First photo is outdoor kitchen. Second is roof tear off, preparing for new roof. Third and fourth are new-expanded dining room.

Today’s progress on the outdoor kitchen.

Quick tile floor install to change the foyer.

Photos backwards from final to design.

Projects look so much better when wrapped up. Today was a long day of grout, putting baseboards back, cleaning up, and putting the furniture back (no pictures of that).

Could not have done this all without the help of Jr.

It’s a work in progress, but here are some pictures of the tile floor I’ve been installing.

Grout and baseboards tomorrow, then time to move furniture back into the room.

Sometimes I get the pleasure of doing the fun and beautiful things.

Helped install these exotic hardwood floating shelves at World Traveler Coffee Roasters new Folsom location.

It’s a blessing being part of the California Dream Construction crew.

Custom remodel. New paint, baseboards, and flooring.
