This is the MIGHTY team that went to Dyersburg, TN this winter for our FIRST visit to that city.. It had been flooded last May when Nashville, TN got all those rains and flooded something awful... almost 450 homes were heavily damaged in 'backup' waters from that flood.

This was the shower house that was available to us. It was the same shower house that was at Greensburg following their tornado. IT WORKED VERY WELL.

This is the house where we did all our work on this team. ALL the sheetrock had to be hung and all the insulation had to be installed. The temperature was a bit low several of the days but we had a good heater..

Considerable work had to be done on several of the walls in preparation for insulation, plumbing, and sheetrock..

All the walls had to have
insulation installed, both
for comfort AND for
noise reduction.

Each and every hole in the walls had to be mudded, sanded, mudded, sanded to prepare them for vacuuming and painting..
