Today, I decided to pull up the carpet in the office. I didn't immediately think of doing before and after pictures. Shortly after starting, it hit me, and I ran off to grab the camera. The batteries were dying, and honestly, I just wanted to get back to ripping things apart/up to bother with something like batteries.....
Yes, that is greenish/brown shag carpet. That has probably been down on this floor for 30-40 years. So, what do you think was underneath??
Here ya go!
The carpet apparently did a FABULOUS job of protecting these hardwood floors. Really makes a HUGE difference in this room.
We will put some kind of rug down, to protect the floors a bit, since it's an office, with a rolling chair, and all, but for the moment, I'm enjoying walking in and seeing these beautiful wood slats all aligned perfectly....
I'm sore as hell, and would love to get in the hot tub to relieve the pain, but I'm too tired to lift the lid! But it's worth it... I think......

Oh my giddy aunt , what a difference removing the carpet made. That looks fabulous!
I'd be pretty pleased with that effort for the results.
The floor looks great. Now you need to paint over the paneling to lighten up the room and show off the floors even more. It never ends....................
