The tale of two floors! days 2, 3 & 4

The bedroom and closet look wonderful, but there is an entire house full of awful carpet and tile to remove, so that was next!

Day 2 & 3.... All 6 of the guys showed up on time and away they went. 

They were efficient and quick!  It took them about 6 1/2 hrs to take up all the old flooring.  It was very noisy and dusty.  I sat in my bedroom with my sewing machine set up and started a couple of new projects. 

I'll show you more later...

Chipping out all the old tile was not easy.  I am so glad that it's gone.  They chipped out the tile in front of the fireplace too.  I wanted the new floors to butt up next to that ugly decorative tile on the wall around the fireplace.  There were cracks in the concrete that had to be filled with a compound, sanded and then vacuumed up.

They actually had time to start installing the floors that same day.  I tell you, these young men were fast!

Day three....Mr H needed a place to eat breakfast.  I will admit, I laughed when I walked around the corner and saw him sitting there, trying to eat a bowl of cereal.

Day 4....Base boards back and all is ready for the furniture to be moved back in.  See what I mean about consistent flooring?  I am VERY pleased with my new floors.

Now it's time to paint.  I just hate this wall color with the new floors.  It used to look yellow/gold....now it looks pee green!  Yuck!!!
