The Floors are Dry!

Yesterday after work, I stopped by the flip house to open up the windows and let some fresh air in...and some stinky air out. The floors are dry to the touch now, so we are safe to walk on them in stocking'd feet. The strong smell in the house is starting to dissipate finally, which is good, because before it was hard to be in there for long without your eyes burning. As we get some nicer days, we will be able to open the windows more and let the fresh air in!

While I was there, I decided to go explore the bedrooms and take some pictures. Here you go!

As you can see in the pictures, there is blue tape along the baseboard on some of the bedroom walls. This is because while the floor guy was trying to apply the polyurethane to the floors, there was insulation coming through the gap between the sheetrock and the floor, and it was getting stuck in the poly. He was nice enough to tape off these troublesome spots for us so that we didn't end up with bits of insulation fuzz stuck in our brand new floors!

Soon, we will get trim, baseboard, and doors put on, and then we will be about ready to clean clean clean. We are still planning to tackle the bathroom in the basement before we put the house up for sale, but our plan of attack is still being refined. That will be the last project, aside from some minor landscaping outside, such as cutting back some overgrown trees and brush and planting some bushes.

Thanks everyone!
