Today we gave the go-ahead for the flooring guys to purchase 1500 square feet of Acacia wood flooring for our house.
It will do the entire down stairs and the upstairs landing; we'll keep the carpets in the bedrooms. We're still probably 2 months out from having wood floors in our home though.
Its got to be ordered, then delivered, then its got to sit in the house for 2-3 weeks while it acclimatizes to this environment. Then we'll set an install date & it will take 2-3 days to get it installed.
We're having the flooring guys do it all because then it will be done, not partially done for the next 5 years or longer.
Updated photos will be provided as they come.
Whats going to be a bugger is moving all our furniture and stuff out of the way. We also still need to remove the existing flooring and get it entirely flat and sealed with Kilz or equivalent.
I'm also going to do some painting on the big walls before these are installed so I don't get any paint on them. I really want to try this with light brown/tan paint going up the stairs because the dogs have it all brown now, might as well use a color that might hide it.
