New photos show the renovation of the White House is almost complete after two weeks
The Oval Office has new wallpaper and the Roosevelt Room and West Wing lobby new carpeting
The South Portico steps have also been renovated for the first time in more than 60 years
And much work was done to replace the White House's HVAC system, which was installed 27 years ago
Because it has run constantly since then, it had had the equivalent of 81 years of regular usage
There were also IT upgrades and general paint jobs - the latter of which continued Tuesday
Trump reportedly called the White House 'a real dump' to golfers at his New Jersey course this summer
However, he has strongly denied those claims after they emerged in the press
Donald Trump reportedly called the White House 'a real dump' this summer - that's a claim he later denied, but either way he'd be hard pressed to make such a remark now that a two-week-long renovation has wrapped up.
As seen in these photos, the exterior of the building, along with the Oval Office, Roosevelt Room and other areas of the West Wing have been given an overhaul.
But the real work went on beneath the building's floors and in its walls, as the ailing HVAC system was replaced, the heating system upgraded and IT infrastructure given a boost.
Despite the considerable work performed on the building, however, it's now a shining white as ever - and ready for the president to get back behind the Resolute Desk.

I don't think so.
the oval office is nice, but ALL the furnishing, drapes, carpet, ect are AWFUL !
Every single piece not part of the building in that room I would throw in the trash.
they did a great job on the renovation... then filled it with crap.

What’s worse than making up fake news? Repeating it. Twice. Just in case somebody missed it.
Liberal scum.
You mean, like with a broom?
Oh look, it’s lucifer sitting on a desk.
Somebody had the good sense to wait until barky and clan finished with it to clean the place up.
Re:equal to 81 years or regular use.
You don’t believe it?
Consider that 16 of Clinton and Obama hangers on smoking dope and what not took a helluva filtering running 24/7/365.
Which leads to the question, “What was the bill for Fabreeze over that period?”
Hasn’t been a leak since it started.
Haven’t removed the portrait of the slaver Andrew Jackson.
The Daily Mail gets the BEST pictures.
.
I’ll admit I called it a filthy dump when Melania and Moo had tea in the Yellow Room. Absolutely disgusting. Stains on the blue couch. Rug thread bare. Candle sticks weren’t straight in their holders and ugly floral arrangements. There was also a picture of filthy doors of the press room.
Trump knows how to class things up and he’s done a great job. Hope all the Kenyan crap was thrown in the dumpsters.
Now, about those bugs...
People just vape it now. No smell, easier on the lungs too
Would that be rat or RAT infestation or both?
both.....they come in big and smaller sizes
Bet they had to refinish the Resolute Desk after Soetoro’s feet and backside were all over it.
Hopefully, they removed the life sized portrait of Hellary.
It was reported that the renovations also included “computer IT infrastructure” replacements. Although reported as the last item, IMO, it was the main reason for the reno. Remember, the Kenyan took his computers and software and had established what was called “back channels” for his minions to communicate with him. At least this is what was reported way back around January.
Remember the Periscope used to spy on the Russian Embassy in one of the old James Bond Movies?
The gold colored couches and chairs and curtains need to go.
They look cheap.
