An Improvement!
We had this old church nursery type of carpet that made it impossible to clean out dust and old cat pee-type smells in the extra room downstairs. When we pulled it up, of course we were hoping for some decent hardwoods that we could enjoy with some minimal sprucing up. As usual, it was much worse under there than we'd expected. The wood was in terrible shape, and it looked like at some point, someone let their kid go to town on them with a hammer and a bucket of nails. We quickly changed course and pulled the nails, patched the cracks with wood putty, scraped some linoleum up and painted them with porch paint. In spite of that extra work it was a very doable project that cost under $50, and we are loving the difference!
I love the way white floors (and rug) brighten all of the colors in the room!

Looks great! Amazing how much brighter it makes the room. You're making me want to take the dark carpet out of our kitchen (!) sooner rather than later.
Good job! Looks so crisp and clean! Love Grandma
