V8 Beast Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I'm going to be redoing my dining room and kitchen floor in the next two weeks. I was wondering if anyone on here is in that line of work before I start getting estimates from stores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8 Beast Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Laminate, wood floor look, natural wood color, and quarter rounds. I can pull up the current linoleum, carpet, and move the appliances out of the way myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to contact everyone, check their past work, price, and make a decision based on that. Another question is who has the hook up on laminate?

88lx5oh Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 brian check out lumber liquidator. i layed about 800 sq ft in my house, its really not hard to do. i have no seems in any door ways unless it was transitioning to tile. if your using it anywhere were there might get water on it, make sure that it is glued where it clicks together.

Linc5.0 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 also dont be a cheap skate, add value to your house and put something better than laminate down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I'm interested. I'm going to contact everyone, check their past work, price, and make a decision based on that. Another question is who has the hook up on laminate? Bargain Outlet has the best prices on that shit. Seriously though, you could tackle a project like this with help from a buddy or two. I recently did this in my living and dining rooms and it's not hard at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do this method, keep in mind that areas such as bathrooms may need pulled up for repairs. Things such as wax rings, worn out flanges, and leaks are all such reasons. Using a filler piece or transition piece leading into these rooms, can make removing this section of floor much much easier. Also try to buy at least 1 extra box for such instances.

Bam Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 also dont be a cheap skate, add value to your house and put something better than laminate down +11ty billion. Laminate blows. Do it right or not at all. That's how you treat your car right? Plus your house is an actual investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Beast Posted November 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I thought the same thing when I was looking at marble floors... but after comparing them laminate came out on top. Mostly because I'm not going to do my floors based on what someone may like 10 years from now when I sell it. Kids, upkeep, comfort, efficiency, etc all went into deciding on it.
