In the midst of installing solid hardwood flooring. Have done 3 rooms now, those were about 120 sq ft each.
I dont know how longvit ahould take, but yesterday was 11 hour day, couple short breaks, and probably an hour to prep and clean up.
Feels it is taking longer than it should, but it is tedious, yet rewarding.

Looks awesome! Never installed flooring before. Did you have to do a lot of prep work beforehand?

Thanks.

Removing baseboards, carpet and underlay.
Underlay, the number of staples used is crazy, but probably not a big deal when installing it :) and the pieces that hold the carpet down. Just tedious.
Thats what i meant by the prep work. Also closet doors, removing them... last room my son packed his closet, so indidnt touch it, other rooms i put tile in the closets.

@Steve K Ive removed my baseboards a few times and whenever I do I always find I crack them. Might not help that they're 100 years old
