I need help before I potentially destroy my basement
So I am helping out a friend with restoring their basement. They want the floors to be redone, walls painted, ceiling painted, and sink and drain replaced. I want to make sure my order of operation here to be correct. So that and any advice would be appreciated. Currently my plan is to do this room in this order: Remove the drain and sink. Grind down the floors with a floor grinder. Seal the gaps between the walls and floor with caulk/urethane. Paint the floors with a primer and a latex paint for basements. Install the new drain and sink. Paint the walls. Paint the ceiling Please let me know if that is the best course of action. My main concern is the sink being disconnected for that long. Logically I feel that should be fine but I am not certain. Any advice here would be greatly appreciate. submitted by /u/Huffy173 [link] [comments]
