Some detail pics of the sub floor. This floor will add some much needed insulation value, Because it was put down all in one piece it will help protect the sub floor from getting wet and then rotting, the vinyl needs a flat surface to lay on and the original floor was grooved rubber over, and it's gonna be much easier to keep clean.

We did time lapse to record some of the process because a video would be long and boring. Plus I think time lapses are cool :)
