Our whole house is carpeted and it too stinks. Carpet is just filthy, filthy, filthy. I've ripped it out of two rooms, and despite that the wood floors underneath are going to need extensive work ( the wood floor in the living room and all the way up the stairs is covered in ancient, black, carpet glue.....) it still looks way better than icky, stinky carpet. Having never refinished wood floors before, I would love your thoughts and solutions to the glue situation. Its not a project I'm looking forward to.......... :-( I effing HATE carpet!

I love arches... I'm even thinking about putting one INTO our house instead of the open space between kitchen and living room! And... it's probably structural... The green carpet DID have to go... you are lucky there were no tack strips under it!! The floor looks great underneath, too... shouldn't be too big of a refinishing job. But I like the arch!
