Today I finally stopped changing shit up and dropped the hammer on getting my entertainment room finished off.

Decided instead of refinishing the floors I am going to go ahead and put in new subflooring and new hardwoods. After looking into it it just seemed the better choice so I have consistency throughout the house instead of two different woods upstairs and downstairs.

Also bought the curtains and rods, plywood subflooring, new skilsaw and other assorted goodies to get the job done. I figure once I clear out the room...again I will be set to begin laying the subfloor and racking the hardwood for install. Hoping to be started on it by Monday at the latest but possibly as early as sunday once the wood acclimates.

So begins the mess that I will createh:

 

finally!

 

Yeah well there were a lot of things to consider since I plan on living here for a while and want it to be both appealing to me as well as appealing in a resale market down the road a few years.

 

Hardwood floors > carpet nowadays

 

yea I hear ya john.

our living/dining room and foyer have 2 different wood styles ftl.

i want to re-do it.... but we plan on expanding later, and it would go to waste



take pics!

 

Once I clear it out again I will take some pics, right now things have kind of amassed in the room again h:

Three of the the walls and the ceiling are painted I need to repaint the back wall the tv will be mounted on because I don't like the grey I got at all (too much blue to it) so I will paint the room all one color instead.

 

no bamboo no care h:




























































:fawk:

 

Bamboo...harder than rock maple or oak...but you have to really like it.

 

Yeah not a fan personally so I will be putting in all oak floors with tile in the kitchen and bathrooms.

 

we've been waiting for pics for about 3 to 4 months already.
