Let the Work Begin…. :-)
Remember how I “took my own advice” and purchased some real estate??? (See: http://fabulousportland.com/2009/08/10/soi-took-my-own-adviceit-is-a-good-time-to-buy/Well ), now my partner and I are deep into the “world of remodeling”! Portland Oregon investment properties have been holding their own in a “challenged” housing market. Decisions, decisions, decisions plus the unknown elements that will surface in any remodeling project are “in yo’ face”! Ugly vinyl tiles had been glued over hardwood floors on both levels of our duplex. What an amazing project to get that glue off the floors. In the photo you can see the sanded floors adjacent to the floors with MOST of the glue removed by a strong solvent!! With 4 people attempting to release the glue, it set us back several days on the sanding (you just can’t find anyone who will or can sand up that glue)! We did find two products: a Jasco product and this Klean-Strip (less expensive) that managed to dislodge the black-gluey mess.
So, now another little “glitch”. There were institutional ribbed vinyl stairtreads on the stairways in both units (again, glued over hardwood). However, upon taking off the vinyl, the wooden treads beneath were damaged. Hummmm! So, now Lowe’s comes to the rescue with inexpensive pine treads (that we will stain to match the refinished hardwood flooring)…but, tearing up the damaged original wooden treads has also broken most of the original wooden risers. Ok, again we will “make-do” with a less-expensive MDF product and paint the risers. It will still look very nice (I hope). I was involved several years ago with the remodel of a vacation property in Bend, so I should not be surprised….but, remodeling is like Christmas every day….you never know what you’re going to get!!!
