I have hard wood floors in our dining room to refinish, but the tricky part is that I have to first remove peel and stick laminate square tiles that were originally on top. I have been using pro-strength "Goo Glue" (orange oil), letting it set for 5-10 minutes, then scraping with a plastic putty knife. There's a lot of glue residue that is not coming up, it's just a grey squishy mess going into the wood cracks and crevices. I have small children, so I am hesitant to use a very strong chemical. The space is about 10' x 12'. Any suggestions about how to best remove the damage to the wood floors?

I own a home that was built in the late 1800's, and I have started updating the bathroom and the kitchen. The bathroom is very small, about 4 feet wide and 5 feet long. I want to put an insert in the cast iron tub, but the corners are shaped like a stop sign which is making it difficult. I also need to install new tile on the floor, since I had to replace the old floor due to water damage. I need to replace and install a cabinet for the new sink. In the kitchen, I also need to update the flooring. The kitchen needs a new sub-floor and tiles. I would like to build and install new kitchen cabinets. The current kitchen was added on around 1950, as I update, I would still like to keep the period look of the home. As contractors, do you have any thoughts on how I might be able to plan and execute all of my home improvement projects on my own? I would like to try and save money by doing most the work by myself. Any help you can give me would be great!
