Just a quick tip

We wanted to redo the kitchen and all of the estimates were way out of sight so me and Google are doing the labor stuff. We're going with hard wood floors which is 3/4" thick, and if we laid it on our current sub-floor, the doors wouldn't open. That meant the sub-floor had to come up. We pried and pulled nails, and pried, and drove wedges, and pried. Last night at "dark-thirty" I had an epiphany. I have a low profile hydraulic floor jack for the truck, why not...........so, we pried up one corner about 3" stuck the jack under the ply and shazaam! All we have to do is go around the edges with the prybar and it pops right up.
Now all my wife has to worry about is that I don't take up the floor throughout the house!
