Let's find out what's hiding under the plastic floor

This is the moment I've been the MOST excited about since it became certain that we were going to move in, we are going to remove the plastic floor and find out what's hiding underneath... I hope that you enjoy the first small project in the new house.

I'm so happy you found the floor you were hoping for. I'll just keep hoping that all the floors are wood, for you. Your home is going to be absolutely gorgeous!

Things are starting to shape up!! I am so happy you found the original flooring. It is going to be beautiful all shined up with your magical touch. The garden will be jumping for joy knowing you are the steward of it now. You are going to bring it to its full potential and I am sooo happy for you two♥️ I am also happy I get to see this project from. The beginning. Usually I come in after the fact or in the middle of.

Oh wow, I was so afraid the floors would be bad. I'm so happy they arent! You should sell the laminate flooring. Recoup some cash for the renovations!!

[@michellebyrom6551]

I was thinking the same. There's a lot of it in the same colour and it looks to be in a decent condition. The blue underlay with it will save someone a fair bit of money. I wonder if there's enough altogether for a single larger space in a community building?

[@phoebemichael2895]

I was thinking the same thing, looks to be in very good condition and I'm sure a lot of people would reeeeeally appreciate it as a donation/sold at a cheaper price

[@Rebelhomeland]

I wouldn't even touch those floors. It's kinda a waste. If she doesn't at least save them & sell them. A tiny floor like that would cost, 300.00$ And you could put a beautiful rug & move in.. accents would take care of the rest. You are gonna be much more sweaty. Thats alot of work, trust Mr. Yes irs gonna take along time to do the reclaim those floors.

Those are Ferns next to the rose, Ferns are shade loving plants, they burn in direct sunlight but thrive in full shade, they like damn moist soil but don’t like being waterlogged 😊 Absolutely love the flooring 🤩🥰

You can almost see that floor rubbing it’s eyes, yawning and stretching as it sees the first rays of sunshine after years of darkness.

I'm so glad that the plastic floor wasn't glued down! Looks great!

[@carolineholland4178]

This is a beautiful building you have found. The stair case, the round window, the lovely floors. It looks like she was constructed well during the Art's and Craft period. You will compliment this house so well and turn it into a beautiful home. I am so exited that you are sharing this journey, thank you so much. And the garden...it is going to be amazing!!!

removing the first piece of flooring is always the hardest. Cudos whoever did this linoleum for not using any glue on the hardwoodfloors! could be sanded down but ive seen that done once and it was so much work!

[@donnasheppard8703]

Hello from USA 🇺🇸, what a beautiful retro building. Lots of light from the windows. Will make a terrific home.

[@contactsuzi7096]

Hi Elise, When you were pulling out the nails and pins from the wood floor, I wondered about that. Our house is 100 years old with wood floors. In some rooms, the floor boards had come loose from the joists, over time, and were horribly noisy, making squeaky, cracking noises. Are you sure you will not need some of those nails? It is a wonderful house. I can't wait to see what you do to it! Suzi

[@chucky6367]

The nails Elise was pulling out were from the wood sheets.

[@sherrysarpu5647]

Hello moss is good luck! Many blessings honey!

Moss makes a really great lawn, low maintenance, much better for the environment than grass. I urge you not to kill the moss, but embrace it. You could even re-wild areas or plant meadow plants or grass alternatives if you you were up for it. Either way, moss is friend not foe! 💚

[@emilyrose9004]

Omg!! I feel like you lucked out so much!! As I’m watching this I am admiring how the previous owners put down the LVP flooring. They did such a good job at protecting the original wood underneath!! Congrats on getting a natural wood floor underneath. I’m genuinely excited for you 😊😊

[@dianehess3706]

Congratulations on your new home. May you have many years of happiness and love. Just some advice, make sure to wear appropriate protective clothes and gear (i.e. gloves, masks, goggles and boots or sneakers) and pace yourselves. As you said with the garden, patients is going to be key and getting burned out happens quickly. I wish you both luck and thank you for sharing your journey in this chapter of your life. Your friend Diane ❤️

[@allyirvine7537]

That’s a great start already Elise. I can imagine once you sand the floors and wax or varnish them they will be amazing. It will take awhile but there is no hurry. You have a lot of time ahead of you so enjoy the transformation. I also like what you’re doing to open up the lounge space. There is so much natural light and leafy views everywhere. 😍 I take it you checked this was not a supporting wall? Do you have fireplaces and would you attempt to reinstate them or not bother?

I have done this same project - tearing up flooring and sanding the original floors. It’s so crazy to think of how somebody spent all that money on laminate and installing it and then the next person reverses it. Lol. It’s kind of like my hair! I grow it out, I cut it off, I grow my bangs, cut them off, I dye it blonde, I grow out. Life is a never-ending cycle. Good luck Elise! 🤎

Best place for ferns is a northern exposure and/or under the tree line so they are shaded. Using rain barrels at the corners and using soaker hoses can keep them hydrated with the least amount of waste and work.

[@martinalemmerhofer6937]

Kudos to all the hard work. For easier work and clean up I do suggest a small container to collect the nails while pulling them up and a box or basket or tray to put down your tool to easily push them out off the way when pulling up the click floor and sheets covering the wood floors. So much safer to keep track off tools and lose nails to prevent stepping or kneeling on them.

[@denisemeredith2436]

I am so pleased that you found a beautiful woodfloor under all that hardboard and laminate. You.should be able to sell the laminate and the blue membrane to recoup some cash.

You have probably finished the job now but a small bucket or plastic container to put the nails in as you pull them out would have been a good idea. The room looks so muchg better as you open it up. It is very light and bright.

Elise you probably are doing this but be sure the wall you are removing is not load baring because if it is you have to add a means of support to replace it before you completely remove it or your house will cave in from above. Also hope you get help on redistribution of the electrical. That hardwood looks beautiful too.

[@iceeyes4478]

It's so exciting that you found the wood floors! They look way better than the laminate. This whole thing is going to be so interesting to see, all the progress you two will make. Please be careful when pulling out walls that they aren't load bearing walls, you don't want to weaken the foundation, and be careful with moving wiring in the wall you're pulling out. I wouldn't want to see either of you get hurt. Can't wait to see all the ideas you guys have with the renovations!
