The Kitchen Floor

One drawback of the house upon moving in was the poor layout of the kitchen, virtually no wall space with SIX doorways entering it. So with the help of Charlie and Papa McLane we decided to take out the wall below and merge the pantry and bathroom into the kitchen space.


Some demolition took place...


We ended up with this after the walls, were gone. Notice the wiring now dangling...


Which leads to the project of late, restringing wires, which leaves a floor full of holes....


The old wood floors of the kitchen are well beyond salvaging, so the plan has been to cover it with luann and lay linoleum. I had to cut out around a few holes...


being careful not to cut thru the subflooring below the original tongue and groove boards...


and finally filling in with plywood subflooring and using the good ol' liquid nails to hold it in place.
