ANOTHER amazing project!! It looks FANTASTIC, Kelsey!! ❤❤❤ (AND to think you're not even finished!) I would love love love to see you take out that pony wall and continue the black railings and white oak trim from downstairs! And remove the drywall from around the vertical beam and wrap that in white oak! Come on, Kelsey, we all know you can do it.. just knock it out... wham bam 😄 (easy for me to say, huh? 😘)

Thanks! I get caught up in details too. Took me a while to figure out exactly how I wanted the transitions.

It looks great! I'm impressed with all your skills. A number of years ago I ripped out the carpet in my living room and replaced it with laminate. I think removing the baseboards took me a full day. 😂Just an FYI: the flooring under the tile in the bathroom is vinyl, not linoleum. Linoleum is made from natural materials (mainly linseed oil, pine resin and sawdust) and is more expensive than vinyl. A fun fact is the builders of the Titanic used linoleum on the grand staircase instead of marble. Lino had just been introduced the year before and the builders wanted only the best!

Beautiful work! You makeit look easy. I, though, would have removed the baseboards and put the flooring from wall to wall, avoiding the use of quarter rounds. (I absolutely loath quarter rounds, to me it feels like they are there to cover up mistakes, and they usually don't match up well with doorjambs, because they stick out.) Anyway, all that aside - the floors look beautiful!

Question: I've heard you say in previous videos that you've DIY'd many other houses, so I was wondering what kinds of DIY projects you planned on working on once this house is "completed." Or at least the bigger renovations are complete. Was just curious because I found this video series about a month ago because I really enjoy people remodeling their homes and I love how you've transformed your house.

Hello there Kelsey, I have been enjoying watching and catching up on all your renovations. You have been doing an awesome job. I noticed the linoleum that you removed.

Great job. Very good video. I want to remove my carpet. Can you tell me how many underlayment you spend? How many box laminate did you buy ? My hallway is about the same size as yours. Total how many days will it take to complete? Thank you!

@KelseyRomitoDIY

Жыл бұрын

This hallway took about 6 boxes of flooring. The underlayment and flooring needed can be estimated by your square footage. So measure your hall and then you’ll know how much you need. Depending on your skill level level, this project will probably take 2-3 days.

How did you get that heavy saw upstairs??!!!

I'm curious why you didn't stagger the pattern of the floor for the boards leading to your room? Wouldn't it change the pattern?
