Even though the
house isn't that old, the previous owners had small children and a
dog so the carpet was beyond repair. I decided to install tile in
the heavy traffic areas.
This is how the dining room looked before
I ripped out the carpet. I decided to install tile in the entry,
hallways, bathrooms, kitchen and the Master bedroom entry.
The Tile
Saw. MK 380
7" Diamond tipped blade. Bought online.
The first thing I
did was remove the half wall that was nothing but a junk
collector. I relocated the electric box to the location shown.
This made it easier to install the tile.
My dad and
brother helping me get started. I tried different patterns and
decided on a running bond. Thanks dad for suggesting it.
The room looks
much larger now that the wall has been removed.
The front entry
once the tile was finished. Next job is paint and molding.
The hallway towards
the garage. Bedrooms on each side as well as the Master bedroom
and living room will be re-carpeted.
Another shot of
the dining room after light gray paint and molding have been
installed.
The kitchen is
much nicer tiled than the linoleum before.
