<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The wood floor looks to be in very good condition. I think you made the right call.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Very nice...and great decision. Why anyone would ever cover such a floor with carpet is beyond me.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have no idea! They sure used enough staples to secure that pad though. Worst part by far!

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I think the hardwood definitely looks better. Ripping out carpet is tough and dirty work, but it looks like it paid off in the end.

What do you say? There are only 18 of them......

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I love the hardwood. Why would someone cover it up? And it looks in great condition!

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Looks Great. Shame to have hid it for so long.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>That is a score!<br /><br />In Chicago, they used to do put things over hard wood all the time. The old way they built the flats made the floors above you creaky. I'd take the noise and the wood over anything else.
