I'm Floored


Before...
During...

After.

Spending the weekend cleaning up, and discovering new dimensions in 150-year-old grime.

The floor will be polyurethane-d and all of the floors scraped, sanded and re-varnished. But first, there are new kitchen cabinets to be installed, and I want to swap the ceiling tiles a previous tenant put in. There are acoustic tiles you can get that look like tin. And the whole place needs to be repainted, because in spite of having put up tarps, the grime got sucked right into the walls.

The New Normal: One floor, one ceiling, one headache at a time.


Comments:
Heh, at first I thought the "before" picture was the "after" picture and was thinking either they did a really shitty job or the floor was in extremely bad shape before. But the new floor looks bee-yoo-tee-ful! Be sure to take lots of pics when you finish with the cabinets, etc.
