As some of you may know, we are replacing the flooring throughout the majority of our house. It all started when we figured out part of our subfloor was basically rotting due to the French doors not being installed correctly and several years of having no gutters on our house for protection. So, simple, we get the subfloor fixed, right? But then we figured out the doors had mold in them and we needed new doors. And THEN I decided I didn't want to put our nasty carpet back down on the new subfloor. And so on and so on until Jamie decided we should replace the carpet in our living room/foyer with hard wood laminate...and he's laying it himself. :) This seemed like and o.k. idea to begin with...but after a week of the following, I'm getting a little concerned.
This is what our living room looked like on Monday when I got home from work...what you can't tell is that he had already pulled up half of the carpet and just laid it back down.
The rest are as the week progressed...he's pulling staples out of the floor.
Luckily we haven't had any "toolman" sized accidents or injuries. Just some minor bleeding. Ha! Jamie is finishing up the last of the extra layer of plywood (which we have to put down to even out the level of the floor from the foyer to the living room). So I guess tomorrow we will start installing the actual planks...Wahoo! (Whose idea was this again???) Hopefully soon you will be seeing pictures of our FINISHED floor! Yay!
