Where shall I begin?

Well, it looks like we need to do a bit more work than we originally thought in the twin room. Over the last few years, we had a rug covering this corner and I have to say we both had kind of forgotten about the hole under it. We realised however, once we removed the rug, that it was definitely in need of a bit of attention.

And so it begins

Brian, now enthusiastic by a floorboard challenge, soon went to collect his multi-saw. First of all though we discussed what needed to happen, and which of the floorboards needed to be removed to enable him to repair the damaged area. He then started to cut the relevant pieces of floorboard out. In total he ended up taking up 7 boards. But the good thing is that he has now been able to clean the area underneath, remove any rotten wood, and has treated it with a multi-purpose wood treatment. Tomorrow he will work on putting it back together.
