Getting the Floor Fixed

Note from Barry

As many of you know, our kitchen floor has been wonky for awhile. With the help of Mason’s dad, Barry, we’re finally getting it fixed.

Here’s the photos so far.

The funny thing — but I guess expected in an old house like ours — is the totally shitty job previous owners did with the floor. For Example, there’s still two different layers of tile on the concrete slab under the floor. The first layer under our current floor was seperated by plywood, the second layer by 4 inches of concrete:

The Floor Under the Floor Under the Floor

And the silly thing about the concrete is that our house is a pier and beam house, so there’s not supposed to be any concrete slabs underneath it.

The theory is that this slab used to be the back-poarch, and “they” just left it here instead of removing it.

Yay home-ownership!
