Ripping up linoleum - Small project



Although we've been over to the house every day this week and will probably continue this trend, there are only so many hours (after work) left in the day for renovating. So during the week we're keeping it to small projects, saving the big ones for the weekend. 


Our first small project was to rip up the ugly linoleum in the front entry way.




Note : Crow bar at the ready



Unsure of how it was attached to the floor and hoping that it wasn't glued to the hardwoods, we began to chip away at the corners. As luck would have it, it came up fairly easily.

After prying up many nails and ripping out lots of old smelly linoleum the entry way was finally cleared out! (And yes, it did smell pretty awful)


Ta - Da!

Final Results
