erniee Report post Posted September 30, 2018 I don't know what the owners are going to do. They pretty much have it in top condition. I have another Newell that arrived yesterday. Someone did a terrible job on the flooring- I'll post photos to show later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Great job! I hope the owner cleans the steps! I would have it replaced, by you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Carl, those are some non-skid pieces that the factory added. They like the marble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 1, 2018 The marble is dirty looking, is what I meant. Can take of the old non skid and put on new, after cleaning!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Ge Carl, that is the problem with using real marble, it may not be as perfectly white as the fake stuff. I Like it just the way it is. Great job Ernie. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Entries are a tough one. Tough to decide what to do, especially with a carpet entry like ours. I have no wood on any flooring elsewhere so what do you do in a case like that. We currently have black rubber treads and carpeted sides, at the top of the staircase is carpet also. Ernie, thoughts?

manholt Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Gee Bill, I have a whole master bath room in my house & it's real Italian marble, that includes the floor. Same with my fire place surround. Even the Italians clean their bathrooms! Joe. I also, have your problem....ugly entry! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Ge Carl, I don't care what you have at home, I am talking about the marble in this entry. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Picture worth a thousand words.... I'm guessing Herman has the same issue, our interiors are almost identical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 1, 2018 Joe. I don't have a rug, but my steps don't look any better! You have been up them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted October 1, 2018 we have had a ton of rain while I was doing this coach, plus the pecan trees are sweating all over everything. I believe the owner is going to wash the outside and the entry after he gets to a dry area. That pecan sweat is a mess. I would get new treads and throw that old carpet away on the sides and add wood and new rubber treads with circles instead of lines- easier to keep this photo is in A Newmar- the hinges make it impossible to add wood on the risers, like I usually do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted October 2, 2018 Thanks Ernie! This is one of my winter projects Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted October 2, 2018 I have another Newell here. This one has cork laminate "installed" I say that as this is how they cut against the walls: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted October 2, 2018 Get close and Caulk. PeeeUee. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 3, 2018 Ugh. What are you replacing it with? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted October 3, 2018 will be going back with some acacia- next week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 3, 2018 Looking forward to more photos! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rsbilledwards Report post Posted October 3, 2018 The ACACIA will spice this one up very nicely for sure. The cork is a real duh makes no statement at all and the caulk...a hack's icing. Not everybody has great taste. As Carl said waiting for more pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted October 9, 2018 Very nice! Look at that old floor underneath Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 10, 2018 That makes a statement. Newell & Prevost Conversions, all have curves...must be a PIA to redo floors & ceiling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted October 10, 2018 it is slow go, but looks great Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 11, 2018 Does it have slide's and if so, how do you prevent marks on the wood floor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
