Almost everytime we have to do anything with the old house we find some unpleasant surprise. We've had to shore up places where there wasn't adequate foundations, replace window framing, search for sources of leaks and repair, etc. This requires opening up walls and ceilings and fishing around. These pics are from the 1928 portion of the house, gives you an idea of how it was built (lath and plaster etc), notice the absense of insulation...we're fixing that with a spray foam insulation (made out of soy amongst other things).
