Friday, Apr 12 through Thursday, Apr 18, 2013, Week two of the floor renovation, Cumming, GA

Week two of the floor renovation:

Removing the hardwood flooring turned out to be more trouble than the ceramic tile - As we got towards the front of the coach the adhesive seemed to be different - either they had changed it or there was some water damage. I had not expected that to be the case. The flooring shredded or it pulled up the sub-floor with it - either way, it was a struggle to the bitter end. 


Another fun fact - sub-flooring that used to be 1/4 inch has been replaced by 5mm sub-floor. Not a lot of difference, but enough to notice. Joani had to do some shimming to even things out.



While we were reworking the floor, we decided it would be nice to open up the vents a little. Changed the 2 x 10 inch vents into 4 x 10 inch vents in three locations. Checked the air-flow and it all seemed well. Joani was happy to have more choices for the vent grilles. With the new sub-flooring cut and set in place, we took a break, set the lounge back in place and cleaned up for a party.

  1. I can't wait to see the finished tiling. I hope you'll post some of your original "before" pictures sometime. You had already updated so much before tackling the flooring. I'd love to see some then-and-nows.
