Then I know 100% that any lead based paint is encapsulated under at least once fresh coat of new paint.

Wood floors need to be sanded down to eliminate the existing finish and stain,  Then stained, then at least 2-3 coats of finish.  

Tracy Coats, Sorry Peter Conti's training did not work out for you...

And I don't sugar coat things.

I'm super keen on recommendations from folks that have used a PM in the area and like working with them; I travel a fair bit, and so someone who is trustworthy, and can even handle the occasional odd request (like I need someone to meet a delivery co. at the property to put a new appliance in) would be superb.Thanks so much!

We put a tile floor in throughout the home and a fresh coat of paint.

I did buy the nicer stuff with the hope that in the long run the extra $$ will pay off...thicker, has underlayment on it already and hopefully will last a lifetime....we shall see

Also the pictures don’t show anything besides a outdated kitchen and bathrooms, the nice looking hardwood floor needs some sanding and nice coat of poly.       

We hired a painter to come in and coat every paintable surface with BIN to embalm the smoke in a lacquer tomb and then paint over it.  

The flooring guy can sand the top coat and apply another coat of poly to reduce/eliminate the bubbling.
