This house had an existing “select” red oak hardwood floor. We are going to add additional flooring in the rest of the house.
Scope: Remove old carpet in the living, halls and 3 bedrooms with closets.
The pile of wood flooring seen here has been in home for almost 2 weeks. This allows proper acclimation of the wood to its new environment.

Next to be removed is pad, tack strip, base trim and staples.
The floor had squeaks and so it was important to re-fasten the entire floor prior to the new wood installation.
