we have a 1950s house. We got it renovated a few years ago. At the time budget didn't stretch to flooring in the bedrooms, or wardrobes. So we sanded and varnished the very rough, gappy floorboards and left the beige tiled fireplaces. Am now thinking of getting a builder into to take out the fireplaces, put in flooring and getting fitted wardrobes in the two double bedrooms. I'm going to leave the two smaller bedrooms as we might build over the garage and extend them in coming years.

So, any tips? Any suggestions on what type of wood to use on the floors? What'd be the rough cost of getting rid of two fireplaces?
