I wasn't quite sure what to get my grandmother for her birthday when I had the good and possibly a bit ambitious idea to put down new
flooring in her screened-in back porch. She had been complaining about her floor for some time, which was just peeling paint on concrete.
I used vinyl plank
flooring, which I love for many reasons: It's relatively cheap, it's a floating floor that can be installed over many surfaces, and it installs quickly. We surprised her with the
flooring one Friday evening after work, and were finished laying it by
sundown. Once the new floors were in, it was clear that it could use a
new coat of paint as well. I fully intended to paint the ceiling too,
but she's LOVING it all the same, so I figured I'd leave well enough
alone for now and go back to working on my own house.
