Floor - Part 2

Finished the floor today and added trim along the baseboard. Still need to finish up the transition piece between the family room and the hallway. Also need to shave down the bottom of the bathroom and basement doors so they will close over the new transition pieces. That bottom trim will be painted up to match.

Floor - Part 1

Luis was here bright and early at 6:30am to start putting down the flooring. The part that's in so far looks awesome. Here is a sample - it's a laminate that's supposed to look like slate. This first picture is the actual color, some of the other photos are reddish.



Just about ready for the fridge.


Raul also came and finished the electric work for the stove.


This part's not quite done yet.



Not a new feature - they just pulled the doors off to get the floor in easier. This one's just hanging out here for a few days.

Floor Prep

The past few days, Luis and the guys have been busy ripping out the old linoleum from the kitchen/hallway/laundry room and the Pergo from the dining room. They're almost done prepping the sub-floor, laying down plywood where necessary to make it level. Eventually, there will be a gray slate-looking composite flooring, which should arrive next week, but won't actually be installed until the near end of construction.
