New Kitchen Floor

Rob tearing up old laminate floor

This was the easy part as the laminate rested on top of a thin board.  However, the super geniuses way back when that installed the floor decided to put particle board on top of the subfloor. Well, after what looks like some leaking on the floor took place and other kitchen messes that inevitably happen, that was not an easy task to rip that all up. It just fell apart.

In the meantime our kitchen is in our living room.

And it spilled over onto our dining room table. That little cabinet space is my only working cooking space right now.  Needless to say, we are having a lot of sandwiches lately.

Hello stove and food storage in the living room.
Ahhh, the new tile floor
I must say it turned out well!  And the best part was we didn't have to do this part by ourselves!!  We had a great crew do this all in one day (about 12 hours). Now we just have to wait for it to dry, seal it and hopefully move back into the kitchen on Thursday!

It looks really great! Renovations are hard but worth it in the end.
