Hello friends! As promised, I am bringing you updates on our BIG move. Here is the first instalment of a series of posts showing off our progress.
How in the world will I ever get you caught up on our last 2 months? It will be a process, but we've got to start somewhere... Floors!

The white ceramic tiles in the hallway HAD to go! Forget the aesthetics- I have a toddler running around! We get enough bumps and bruises as it is. Rock hard floors are not an option! |
|
A different version of the accident-waiting-to-happen, cold, white floors were lurking in the living room- dining room. |
|
Demolition time!

|
Bye bye tiles!

So it turns out that we are very lucky. After ripping up the tiles, removing the glue and cement that was holding them in place, and a layer of plywood, the original hardwood floors from 1956 were still mostly intact below!

Next step: sanding... |
|
...and staining... |
|
... and sealing... |
Stay tuned for more updates and a look at the finished product!
|
Until next time... stay cool, dudes! |
Your floors look amazing, Jord!
