Two years ago I had wall to wall carpet torn up in the family room, back hall and master bedroom. Then a few months ago I opened a wall between the family room and the master bedroom and added a double door. When I opened the wall I noticed the floors matched up almost perfect so instead of having a cross board added I am having them laced together.

The two extra bedrooms are having new hardwood floors also and they will be laced in.

The two walk-in closets in the master bathroom will be hardwood.

The bathroom had carpet in it which will be replaced with heated tile. But that will be in about three months.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Looking good. After my Fantasia incident a couple years ago, I spent most of the following year in my wheelchair, and still use it in the house on my worst days. Our carpet was old, and needed replaced, we went hardwood, and never regret it, unless I get up barefoot at 4am to go to the bathroom. :shock: That's a wake up call. :lol:

Don't really have to wait for him to install it, I can tell you right now that he will love it. I've installed it in a few different houses I've worked on and its sweet. I wish I would have put heat mats under the tile in my house when I remodeled it 10 years ago...warm floors are the best, especially here in MN...well anywhere it gets cold.

Those floors are looking great! Always a nice surprise to find old hardwood under carpet.

New installation not found under the carpet (I wish).

I've had heated tile in a master bath, and it's great. Well worth the wait, time and money!

The before picture of how they are lacing the two rooms together.

It still needs to be sanded and stained but it is really looking great. I watched him do one piece and it took him forever. He could have put down twenty other pieces in the same time.
