The New Floor

We just finished (about a month ago that is) redoing the entire hallway and kitchen floor. I'm so excited about it! It looks wonderful; much better than the yucky flooring that was under the tile removed tile. Unfortunately, the hardwood that should have been beautiful could not be restored due to the cheap stick-down tile that had been placed on top of it (3 layers!) Some of that wood had to be replaced where a previous tenant had let water pool and it warped and rotted. (Yuck!)

What has been placed down is a stick on vinyl flooring but looks much better than the yucky brown "tile." The new flooring is imitation wood in a walnut color. I'm so excited about it! It was purchased by the owners over a year ago. Since I had never installed flooring before one of them showed me how. It's actually much easier than I had envisioned and I'm ready to tackle it by myself next time.

The next floor to be redone is the secondary bathroom. Oi, it needs a lot of work tiles need to be reset in the bathing area, flooring needs to be put down, and the whole thing needs a general remodel.

Wondering why all the remodeling on a rented house? Check my post on saving on rent: HERE.

Pictures will follow but my camera is dead!

Stay green,
