We Finally Pulled Up The Carpet!

My co-worker Heidi would be so proud. Well, with installing new wood floors in our new master bedroom, we decided to take the carpets out of the hallway and.... living room. Since we are replacing much of the baseboards on most of the house, our contractor recommeded pulling up the carpets and let the flooring refinishers do their job before installing the new baseboards. Keep in mind that the floors have not seen the light of day since the 70's so there are a few water stains and a couple warped boards but overall not bad shape. The flooring company will sand down a few layers, seal then coat with about 4 coats of scratch resistant urethane. Can't wait. So here's a before and after.
