Finishing Up This Week (We Hope)

Last week the back ordered wood flooring came in and was installed on Friday. The new dishwasher was delivered and will be installed as well as the rest of the plumbing fixtures in the middle of this week. The counters are scheduled for installation on Tuesday and the remaining electrical, exhaust fan, carpentry, wall priming and tiled walls in the kitchen will be completed at the end of the week.

Squaring off the existing floor


The existing wood flooring is being cut and prepared
for the new prefinished floor planks





The floor is started on the patio side glued and nailed

All cutting was done outside on the patio


The floor is installed over flooring paper and blind
nailed into the plywood underlayment


The blind nail unit could only be used at the refrig.
open area opening when finishing the remaining floor




Installing the last pieces along the base cabinets
on the sink side only was a little tricky and had
to be done with glue and surface nailing using a very
thin nail set gun



The floor is finally finished
