Carpeting…Day 6

Rick Armstrong’s crew from Interior Design Carpet was back this morning installing carpet in the “L” Shaped House. The first two photos show the carpet runner installed on the front stairs after the edges were bound over the weekend. The first shows the runner from the cork flooring and the molding at the bottom flight. The second shows the details of the runner at the landing.

The Interior Design Carpet guys also went to work on the carpet in the bonus room. The first photo shows Jimmy spreading adhesive on the plywood flooring before they lay out the carpeting. We decided to use an 80 lb. commercial carpet without a pad in the bonus room because the dancers (Helen and Anna) and the Karate guy (Sam) don’t want a “spongy” surface as they work out.

The next photo shows the bonus room as the guys worked to fit the carpet to the room. They hauled two 12’ wide pieces up the steps from the garage that run the entire length of the room so that there will be only one seam (down the middle).

Bonus Room 2

The last photo shows the door leading to the upstairs hall from the bonus room with the new carpet installed.
