Another Floor

I put another floor in another Motor Home.  It was for a member of our Good Sam Chapter.  Her name is Mary.  Mary lost her husband last year.  That wasn’t the reason I did it for her.  I would have done it if John was still living.  They’re just really good people.  Mary’s job was bigger than the floor I put in our Motor Home.  She wanted to replace the floor from the front of the MH to the bedroom which included the bathroom and shower area.  The bathroom and shower area had linoleum, the living room had carpet, and there was a small area in the kitchen that had a laminate tile on it.  I started in the front taking the carpet out just behind the two front seats.  This was a much harder job than mine.  She has a dinette which of course is attached to the floor and the carpet was under it.  I left the linoleum in the bathroom and shower area since it was very thin and the wood laminate flooring would go over it without causing a problem.  I didn’t take any before pictures but I do have some of the finished job.  This is the front of the MH where I started.  The front couch is on the left side.  It also had to be removed so I could lay the floor under the front of the couch.  The slide area where the couch is attached is still carpeted.

This is looking from the front of the coach to the back.  You can see the dinette on the left side.

I am through with floors this year.  I may do 1 or 2 next year for other friends down here.  It is hard work but I do enjoy doing it.  Doing a floor in a stick house would be much easier.  RVs have so many nooks and crannies which makes the trim work really hard but when it’s done it is pretty.
