Tearing out the old

I’m finally getting the wood floor i have wanted for over 2 yrs now! The carpet in our camper was most likely as old as the camper as it appears to be the original carpet and even though it wasn’t completely stained up it was getting harder and harder to clean and this year i made the statement the one thing i wanted done this summer was the old carpet pulled up and some type of wood or linoleum flooring put in. Well my constant complaining has paid off and today is the day!

Hubby and I worked on tearing out the old carpet and what a job that has been. Man oh man they didn’t go sparely on the nails they used! After the carpet was removed and man am i ever so glad we did it by ourselves. I am embarrassed to say the dirt and sand under that carpet was so embarrassing even for me to see. After sweeping and then scrubbing the wood under the carpet.

A tip to anyone who uses the sprinkle carpet cleaner. When you vacuum and you think your getting it all up … think again you will be shocked how much stays hidden in under your carpet!

Sorry guys, no pictures and i glad i didn’t it was just to embarrassing to see the dirt under there. It’s been a long day and were both exhausted and calling it a night.

After a long shower were going to go sit outside and visit with friends.
