Pandemic Projects - 1st Floor
Ok, in general this is not "our project" un that we did nothing but move the furniture around and pay for it.
But we just got the floor redone at Ashland and they look greta!
The kitchen is a maple flooring. When I bought the house, there were 7 layers of flooring on top of the hardwood, including carpet and a layer of plywood top-nailed every 8". You can still see the nail holes. I had the floor redone about 25 years ago, but dogs and life in general had really worn it down.
Before:
During:
After:
On the rest of the first floor, the floors are a very thin layer of wood that was topnailed in. It probably could not take another sanding without earring it down, but again the finish was wearing off; I did not mind the footsoil so much but was worried about damage. So he did a buff-and-coat.

Finally, Patrick took the opportunity to organize the cables behind our media center as part of this as well!
