The Back Room

The goal was to replace the befouled and collapsing insulation in the main room, but first we had to deal with the collapsing floor in the back room. Because we needed someplace to put the furniture from the main room so we could get the insulation replaced. Some fool had put in a raised, insulated floor decked with that awful fiberboard made out of sawdust and formaldehyde. That stuff that melts when it gets wet. Well, guess what. The roof leaked and it got wet. *doh*

Oh, that's what somebody decided to shim the hardwood floor in the upstairs bathroom with at some point, so when the faucet malfunctioned and the fiberboard got wet, the floor started sinking slowly, until the toilet began to leak because the floor was no longer level.

Nobody should ever have used that stuff for anything.
