I have my electrian coming in the morning to take a look at what we need. I am going to do the bulk of the work myself with him overseeing. I will be going with all GFCI plugs. Thanks for the input everyone.

As stated before going all GFI plugs is redundant and a waste of cash. In addition to where you plug a device in, on the back the GFI receptacle has terminals for source (to breaker) and load. You connect standard $0.99 receptacles to the load side and they in turn are GFI protected.

Hey Gools,

who is your electrician? I used to work for a firm in town (on the computer side of their business -- NOT the electrical) and know a little bit about the outfits in town.

My next door neighbor is J&L handyman in town, so his electrician who he gets for reno's and whatever else. He's coming over in the morning, so I'll find out his name and let you know.
