Day 12 Floor Project - Tile and Hardwood Floor Installation Begins
posted by Webmaster
With much of the preparation work done, by this afternoon the new flooring installation was able to begin. Here is a view of the hardwood being installed in the choir loft:
Tile was installed in the sacristies. Here are some views of the priests' sacristy. The tile is in place but no grout yet.
One of the features in the main church in addition to the water jet medallions will be the word "SANCTUS" (Latin for "Holy") engraved in the risers of the three steps leading to the sanctuary, the holiest part of the church. Today a mock-up was viewed to check the sizing and look of the words.
Chalk lines were snapped to mark the borders around the pew banks, and the location of the medallions was marked on the cement backer board installation surface. The few remaining pews in church were used to help spot the location of the borders, then they were broken down to be taken off to Ohio and refinished like the rest of the pews.
The crew will work through the weekend, getting a good start on the tile installation in the main church.
