Fungal Invasion Eradication

Yeah, so the basement had a nasty bout of "fungal growth" aka it was moldy. Really moldy. The carpet, walls and ceiling tiles had to go. I figured the first thing to do to get rid of this nasty problem was to get a kick-butt team together. I enlisted the help of Sydney and Stacy- the most available hardcore girls I know!
You ladies have sledge-hammers and hatchets? You're hired! Look at those hardcore destruction faces!

Safety first in the Hatcher Household! We all wore super sweaty eye-pro and masks!

Thumbs-up for mold!

The carpet is gross, too.

Who needs walls or closets? Not when they are full of fungus!

Looking good. The hardest part was getting the wallpaper paste off the cement wall.
 
In this short video, Stacy kicks down the closet!
 
 
We had a great time. Tearing up floors and walls makes for good stress release. Maybe someday we will have a party where we re-finish the basement, but for now the Hatcher House is going to have an unfinished basement- which is fine by us. Thanks to these wonderful ladies for helping us get the house in livable condition!
