getting ready for the tile!
we decided to use tile in the laundry room. we came across a great deal at the habitat restore and found several cases of tile. or we may use some tile leftover from other homes we have rehabbed. which ever we decide to use, we know we need a sturdy sub floor! nick spent a long time painstakingly leveling a previously very un-level floor. he then put down a layer of heavy duty sub floor. the floor already has never felt so sturdy. go nick! now, for the tile backer board.
(sorry for the not so stellar picture, i took it this morning after we had dragged the refrigerator into the room friday night and then back out again today).
you may remember that when we replaced the roof on the house we also raised the roof in this room to be as tall as the rest of the house. with the room empty, we decided now would also be a good idea to go ahead and rip out that low ceiling. here are some pictures of the roof lines, before and after:
