new floors :)

we had are hard wood floors redo a few years ago......a few weeks ago my 110 gallon fish tank broke. yes it was a HUGE mess and headache but for once my homeowners actually came through. got the check last week to sand down and re-stain both living room and dining room floor !!!! had a few people come out to give estimates and my wonderful husband finally gave in and said remove the crapet from the stairs and landing. this makes my extremely happy. we have 2 kids and 4 dogs carpet just doesn't work and i loathe vacuum stairs

  • Yay for something crappy being a harbinger of something good!

    What kind of dogs do  you have? We removed carpet from our stairs and ended up having to put treads down, our dogs could not navigate the stairs.

  • YAY for new floors!

    I've always wanted wood floors. Someday when we build our dream home I will have them. I agree with the stairs though, I know my dogs (lab mixes) would tear up the wood on the stairs without some type of grip for thier nails.

  • we have a Pit bull,2 Chihuahuas and a Boston Terrier. they are going to do 3 coats of poly so it shouldn't be an issue. that's what they recommended for stairs and animals
  • My pugs were sliding down the stairs, unable to grip to get down. I felt bad. hahah.

  • Hardwood floors are the best.  I detest carpet.  Mostly it because I don't clean enough to keep up with them.  Hardwood so so much more manageable. 

    What kind of fish did you have.   I used to be nutso about aquariums in college.  I had salt and african chiclid tanks.  wow..that was a lifetime ago.

  • diablesse, right now i just have a mix of fresh water fish. i used to have a chiclid tank before my kids but once they got older they like to pick the fish. when the tank busted we lost a few of the older larger ones i had :( i let my daughter pick the new ones, so now we have a lot of small ones with bright colors.its kinda of nice for a change something new
  • That's very cool.  I keep meaning to start up a new tank.  It's a lot of work and money though.  but oh so pretty.
