    Moving along again, finally!

    Den is sand color (wood stove insert behind bookshelf)

    other two are bath walls, medicine cabinet and new flooring.

    Fill hose, no doubt :rolleyes:, another surface for all the tiny dust particles that come off and float way when one uses tp.

    Flooring was from home depot, Allure Simplefit, vinyl instead of laminate.

    just joking about the hose;)

    was the flooring in rolls? or planks, just wondering about the joints lining up/ no staggering - I like the color pattern

    I agree staggering would look better. This is almost like vinyl plank, except click lock like laminate flooring. As well as the guy did not center when he laid the floor, just started with full planks on the side that is not visible and ended up with a bunch of shortie ends infront of the tub that is very visible. Oh well, I will put my bath rugs back down, and just happy not to be on the 1952 roll laminate.

    So installer had no idea what they were doing (assuming not WWW)
    all the joints in front of the wettest place may come back to bite you but old linoleum underneath will mask it for 10-20yrs

    Exactly. He did not center the floor and did not cut the door jams, and too many joints infront of the tub. No way, not WWW, he would have done both, he finally relinquished the job for me to hire out... I am just glad its done, correctly or not. And the trim work he did in the living room is laughable. Again, this is no show house and just glad to have it done, correctly or not.

    I think I made a mistake letting lil one pick her own colors. Carpenter that painted will touch up the edging this week.
