Flooring Finally

Finally it feels like I'm getting somewhere in my house. Me and my dad put the flooring down over the weekend in the living room, we did a good job even if I say so. Its laid better than most of the floors I've seen done by proper fitters. Maybe coz we like stuff done properly. The Fire is still covered up from the plastering (must remove it). Forgot those shitty curtains are still up as well.

We had a slight problem when my radiator leaked all over my new flooring about an hour after we had finished laying it. Hopefully it will be OK (or I might cry, lol).


Started laying the flooring in my bathroom tonight as well, its only Vinyl planks. Looks like wood, was gonna put laminate down but down but just about everyone said theirs had warped. This looks almost as good and should be fine after I have my bathroom like a Sauna fromt he shower. Still got a few bits to do to it, then the skirting needs putting on. Then the toilet can be put back in and the basin.

Tomorrow night I will finish off the flooring in the bathroom and hopefully put the carpet back down in the main bedroom (old one for now).

I'm hoping in the next 2 1/2 weeks it will be nearly finished (or enough to move in). Can't move in at the moment with the toilet being out. That should be sorted at the weekend.

I wasn't gonna set a date, but think I better or will never move in. I WILL be in by the 21st May (2006, before anyone makes any comments). Only 6-7 weeks after the original date I set. The only reason this is so far in the future is because I will be out quite a bit over the next 2 weeks. Sponsored walk, Boxing, old work get together, etc...
