Will the real bathroom flooring please show up...
Today I started poking away at the flooring. I knew the floor was several inches too thick to account for the visible linoleum and the planks visible from the basement. As you can see in the pictures there are a number of layers. Several layers of 'plastic' floors including some contact paper I think. But the biggest surprise was hardwood floors. Yes, hardwood floors. The thick, tongue and groove kind. Not bad actually and Sara and I have wondered if we could salvage them or refinish them. Not sure yet. I do need to get up new sheetrock before winter.
So I think I'm just going to set the depth gauge on my Skilsaw and cut out a perimeter trench around the walls I want to sheetrock. Then I'll demo/excavate the materials and I'll be able to get in there and do a decent job. Pictures will follow. Three days left...
