Flooring follies

The neutral flooring was chosen to be attractive, durable, and easy to clean with two big dogs running in and out.  It’s a laminate product that is cut to fit.  Designs by Cyndi pointed out the inlay option available with this pattern.  It is eye-catching and different.  I do like it.  Had I known how much work this would be to the father and son team that normally do ceramic tile I would have left that out.  They have worked so hard and are such perfectionist that this has been a labor intensive process for them.

They put down a wood base over my original wood floors and screwed down any squeaky boards as best they could in the process.  A good part of the first day was prep.  Day two got back to the back door.  It would have been completed all today except the fridge arrived and they lost a lot of time while it was brought in and set up.  They had to stay out of the way.

They have in front of sink and middle of floor left that they will do Saturday morning.

The granite template was to be done today.  When the granite person showed it was when they were bringing in my massive refrigerator in and he couldn’t even get to the kitchen.  We’ve rescheduled for Monday morning.  Granite install will be Wednesday and he says that’s enough time.
