Oh well next time just hit me up!! Im sure you see our commercials all the time!!! That also goes for anyone else in the area looking for flooring!!!!

BTW Fast everything is looking great!!! I also like working on the house when Im not doing something to the car. Just recently I painted one accent wall in my MBR with a some extra paint my GF had leftover, I liked it so much I redid the entire first floor, bought all new furn and 2 flat screens to make the rooms complete. LOL! Once you start its hard to stop!!

About four hours south of Chi-Town or else I'd hit you up as I need to recarpet the rest of the house.

Sadly, I have a feeling I'm going to HATE the carpet going in (Frieze). I'm much more of a cut pile type of person.

Sweet! Can't wait for that kind of thing.

I paid about that for my mini fridge. I can't remember if it's 3.4cf or 4.3cf though.

good stuff! looks like things are coming along nicely for you.just don't kill yourself.sit back,have a couple of brewskies and relax.it'll all get done in time.

Yeah thats alittle far for us. But you will prob be happy with the frieze. 99% are it just takes alittle getting use to and looks alot less shaggy when its installed. It also wears better because it has a tighter twist than a texture/plush and springs back longer. Only thing is on stairs and heavy traffic areas it shows layover(matting down) but comes back up after you vacuum.
Anyways its a smart choice for most people and Im sure your wife loves how stylish it is!LOL!

Looks good! It takes time but once its done, it deff. pays off..

and good choice doin it now b4 your kid is born, you deff. wont have much free time for a while to do projects!

I agree 100%, thats why I love doing constuction for a living, but with the economy the way it is, and the whole northeast side of GA having enough houses sitting to last for 5 years, I gotta look into doing something different.

Well, Carpet is ripped up save for the closet and stairs, and the pad that was half GLUED to the foundation is also about 80% up. I freaking STABBED my index finger on a staple when I started ripping the carpet off the stairs so I took that as a hint to take a break.
