Room remodel

[Ramsker]

Thank you. A lot of beers were consumed over the course of the remodel.

Probably explains the floor shifting.

Probably explains the floor shifting.

The first time around I used as many shims as I could (like those drywall screws) and only had issues getting some out. This time around I only had them on two sides and didn't realize that a floating floor floats to where you don't want it after it's way too late.

I've never done flooring like that . . . only a couple fairly small areas of tile. But that's the kind of thing I could see myself struggling with is trying to get that crap square over a large area. Turned out nice. Always immensely satisfying to knock something like that out while saving some cash.

I did a refinish of the stair rails and put in iron balusters a few months ago. Looks nice and saved a bunch . . . but man, was it a pain to sand, stain, etc.
