It was a 13 day process but totally worth it! Here's a picture log of the work. It turned out to be a lot more work than we expected.
The Living Room... We took out the carpet and found the original floor of the house.
Kait wanted a picture of her swinging her pig tails like Tiny does on Donkey Kong (we actually call them Tiny tails).
We decided it would be best to get rid of the original floor (to help the height of the kitchen floor match up better with the living room height) and found this. Unsupported floor joists resting unanchored on the rock foundation. You can't tell from the pictures but standing down in this the bottom of the door was at my waist. 
Bracing and supporting the joists.
The new subfloor.
Beginning the hardwood.
The finished product!
Here's the kitchen. This happened two years ago when the dishwasher leaked.
Tearing out the linoleum so we can apply a self leveling compound.
The finished product!
That seriously looks beautiful, Karen. Great job!
ReplyDeleteMissed you at book club tonight.
Beautiful floors! Must be so much nicer!
ReplyDeleteThose look awesome! I was hoping for pictures, since mom was telling me how good they were looking. Hope you have warm weather soon so you can enjoy your presents from us!
