First things first, we did finish the dining room to match our living room. Here's Zach working & the final product. Now all we need is a dining room set. Until then, Grandma's formica will do!
Zach worked on his floor in his office last week too. This is so exciting because the floor makes such a difference to the room. The original floor was cork tile, all brown and laid in a random pattern.
We stuck with a random pattern to be true to the house. Then chose composite vinyl tile made by Congoleum to keep with the feel. To liven things up a little though, we chose a contrasting color scheme to match our slate tiled entry.
Here's my dad replacing the floor boards once they'd been sanded & patched with matching wood filler. There was carpet installed when we moved in & a glue residue had remained.
And here it is all complete! This was midnight project for Zach. Greta & I awoke to a gorgeous new floor :) Again, she offered her paw of approval.

Floor looks great. Looked even better in person.

Great table and the floor looks awesome!
I am tempted to put in vinyl composition tile in my kitchen/dining room once the room is completed, but am fearful about constantly having to refinish this stuff. How many coats of finish did you put on this? How has it held up against dirt so far?
The floor looks amazing! Good job on laying the tile. I was happy to find your blog, another like-minded renovation couple excited to preserve the past!
I've done a couple floors in this material. Great pattern!
