Last weekend, Mike, Patrick (a new friend/work associate, who agreed to work for a 12-pack of PBR) and I managed to install OSB underlayment on most of the second floor. The floors are now mostly level and squeak-free, which means that we are soooo much closer to installing hardwood and carpet. (The carpet guy came out on Tuesday to measure.)
This week, Mark will paint the ceilings and trim, and hopefully by next weekend, we'll have light fixtures installed and felt floor covering put down. Mike and I have decided that we're going to do a floating floor for the hardwood, which means that we won't need to buy a flooring nailer, but we will need to buy felt and glue.
It turns out we don't have enough slate tile to complete the bathrooms as intended, so I'm also working on trying to find an inexpensive neutral to finish off the areas. If anyone has suggestions of where to find a marble-look beigy tile for under $2.50/sqft, please let me know.
