My obsession with the sun room continues. The hot tub is gone but there was an ugly carpet under it. Since it was in a hot tub room, the carpet was closer to astro-turf than carpet. I anguished over the type of floor to put in. The room is not climate controlled 100% of the time so my first choice of hardwood was out. Then I priced tile. Yikes. I settled for a Berber carpet and a thick carpet pad. Step 1 in my room redo was to get the tub out. Done. Step 2 was to get the carpet out. The damn thing was glued to the floor rather than tacked along the edges. I survived the ordeal and the carpet installation is next. I will conquer this room yet. giggle
