Floor Repair & Plans
Well Saturday Brian had to jack up the house to fix a spot where the previous owner had let a beam rot away because of a leak, and when they fixed it they didn?t properly. So the floor sloped down at that point and was very unstable area. Brian added a beam to the area and gave it a proper fix and now my floor is more even there. Now we can finish painting the kitchen and get a floor laid down. The flooring we will be using is 1 inch planks. I really am looking forward to getting them down. We will have to pry up the 60's tiles along with the layers of paneling and wood they have used over the years, in order to get to the original sub-floor. The flooring that we will be putting down could be used as a sub-floor so our floor will be very sturdy after this. The wood is hardwood planks that Brian has gotten for free from his company. I think it will give the rooms a kind of colonial feel.
