Wednesday evening, spent 3 hours ripping up old laminate and baseboards in the living room, dining room, hallways, closets (400 sq/ft). Thursday evening, spent 4 hours installing new laminate flooring (with the mitre saw handy on the deck). Friday took the day off work, spent 5 hours finishing. Short 1.5 boxes to finish part of the hallway and closet!
Had a feeling I would be short after doing the upstairs last year, but didn't want to order more till I knew how many boxes. I also have to order matching color transition pieces. Took the old laminate, baseboards, a vanity, toilet, sink, some brick from the fireplace, a few garbage bags. Ended up being 425 kg (yes metric!) to the dump, cost me $67! It all fit in the van, and it was sitting a little low!
Handled fine, no noticeable power loss. Least the wife was happy, better than flowers! Happy Valentines day!
