    Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update

    Hi Everyone! Did you see the kitchen idea & inspiration photos from our trip to IKEA?

    If you haven't you can check them out here.

    Today, I have 45 photos (!!) documenting the past 2 weeks of work on our Kitchen Renovation Project!

    So much to catch up on!?

    All kitchen renovation related posts are HERE

    Be sure to follow along my Snapchat and Instagram stories because I will post regular updates there as they happen.

    These past 2 weeks, Eric installed the corrugated metal ceiling that I discussed in my previous Kitchen Renovation Update Electrical and Ceiling post.

    Let's jump right into the tour!

    Week of April 10th

    If you haven't seen Our Home Before Photos, be sure to check those out to see where we started.

    New Metal Ceiling! | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!).
    Our new luminescent corrugated metal ceiling; it really brings light so well into the space and keeps with the industrial vibe.
    New Corrugated Metal Ceiling | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!).
    This corrugated metal ceiling actually was easy to install, I helped Eric by passing him the metal pieces and he secured them.
    Patched Wall | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!).
    Eric had to do a lot of patching to the concrete walls in the kitchen area.

    Eric repaired an area of the ceiling that had water damage from years ago.
    Partially patched wall | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!).
    This is the refrigerator wall. Eric patched the area where he removed a wall that used to make up a broom closet.
    Attic access | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com

    I just want to say thank goodness we have an electrician who likes our project and understands our vision in doing on non-conventional, industrial style, modern kitchen (Thank you Jason!)

    Wood beams | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    This photo shows how well the corrugated metal ceiling brings the light in from the windows. This was an intentional design detail that Eric and I came up with together so that the middle of the room would feel like it has a lot of light as the ends do.
    Metal ceiling with wood beams | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    The juxtaposition of the newly sanded wood beams and the corrugated metal ceiling is really cool.
    Patching the long wall | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    The "devil is in the details," as they say, Eric did a lot of sealing, patching and repairing during the week to get the walls in good shape.
    Wall repair | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    Repair work through patching along the edges of the wall; this long wall will be the counter wall and where most of the appliances will be: sink, dishwasher, stove, exhaust vent and microwave.

    1950's existing wall metal exhaust fan (which we are keeping because it's an original unique detail to the house and we like it!)

    Week of April 17th

    This week was really all about getting ready and paving the way for lighting.

    Temporary track lighting | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    Temporary track lighting to light the work space and you can see the clean edge where the wall meets the beam after Eric patched, sealed and painted the wall
    Electrical pipe | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    Electrical pipe and it's so nice to see some light on those walls; it slowly seems less like a construction site.
    Repaired Concrete Wall | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    The wall on the left side was repaired and later painted

    This photo (above) shows the floor, there were 2 trenches and this past week Eric relocated the plumbing for the sink to go along the wall.

    That was actually a HUGE step because before the sink was in the middle of the floor.

    See how there's a temporary sink along the wall right in the middle of the window where the future permanent sink will be (and next to it the dishwasher!) 🙂

    Before electrical pipe | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com

    Temporary sink to test out the new plumbing

    There you go, there's Eric's plumbing work.

    This was a huge problem that we had to resolve so that we could do our long "counter wall" idea where most of the kitchen is along one wall.

    The refrigerator will be on the opposite wall.

    Installing electrical pipe and wall fixture

    There will be another nautical-style, outdoor light on this wall near the door with switches.

    Hopefully, that will go in next weekend.

    Eric working in the attic space

    Eric has been working everyday after work and through the weekend on this Kitchen Renovation Project.

    If he needs to discuss something he calls me over (I'm usually just on the other side of the plastic) and I take photos when he's done a phase of work.

    Patching from above | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com

    This project, though it is big and at first a little stressful, we have both gotten into the groove and it's flowing now.

    New paint in between beams | Kitchen Renovation Ceiling Walls and Plumbing Update - Here's our latest update on the last 2 weeks for our modern, industrial Kitchen Renovation Project Series (45 photos!). www.LifesLittleSweets.com
    Newly painted wall in between beams

    I love how with a little light to test out, the kitchen space feels a little like a gallery space where one would hang art.

    Having lights to highlight the walls and beams adds so much to space and makes you appreciate the architectural elements of this Mid-Century Modern 1955 custom-designed and built family home.

    Wall with some light wash - testing out 2 different, low-profile, LED light bulbs

    I'm so glad that Eric ripped out the lowered ceiling exposing the beautiful beams in the first part of the kitchen, I think they really add to the space and it's a nod to the original house.

    Testing the light bulbs on the wall

    This wall light fixture has a nautical feel and there will be a switch under it so when you enter the kitchen space from the living room you can turn on the lights.

    This is the same light that will be installed by the door and we will have another in the family room to keep the theme consistent throughout the house.

    The ceiling in this area had been patched and painted

    Our homework for this week is to figure out the floor.

    We think we will just continue the tile since the house has an open plan but we have had several ideas come up in the last couple of weeks as flooring possibilities.

    I think the tile will be fine but you never know what we are going to do, this project has evolved - you will just have to wait and see!

    Already the kitchen space has been so transformed and barely looks recognizable from where we started when we first moved into this house.

    I love that brushed nickel, it goes with everything and looks so clean and fresh!

    I still can't get over how good the beams look after Eric sanded them.

    The sanding really brought out the beauty of the wood. Eric wants to do the beams in the rest of the house, that will be amazing since they are really dark in the rest of the house.

      Hey Sara...congrats on the post and of course on the project. It took a while to do an update ... 1955 till now:) I guess it's better than never.

      Great result anyway, congrats!
