Keep me in the loop too. My wife is pushing for laminated in the upstairs halls. I have NO idea how to do it, so later in the year we should talk.

My advice on the laminated stuff:

DON'T

I have it in my place, my buddy has it in his place and his suite, the edges like to lift if it even THINKS there is moisture in the same country as you. There are real hardwood/engineered woods that are dang close in price.

Any moisture at all is no friend of any wood weather it be hardwood or laminate thats why befor you install any wood be sure if there are any moisture problems you get them dealt with asap befor any wood gets put on the floor! or your left with nothing but problems!

What a great idea, having a barter system setup on here.....

My advice after installing acres upon acres of solid-wood nail-down hardwood flooring, as well as laminate of all shapes and sizes:

"You get what you pay for"

This doesn't mean that solid hardwood is any better or advantageous over laminate. My advice is; if you are leaning towards laminate, which most homeowners are these days, be aware that there are many grades/thicknesses of laminate and you should be wary of the 99 cent specials. For any area of high traffic or visibility, stick to the heavier material which will standup better to uneven subflooring, moisture etc. I prefer a laminate with a very small beveled edge instead of a smooth flush finish.

I'm sure Coho-Killer will agree with some of this, and steer you on the right track. Good luck CK.

That is true you do get what you pay for period! There are a few laminate company's my fave is SHAW! i've installed house after house of the cheaper 99 cent laminate and some looks good and others not so good! Shaw i have never had a problem with but there laminate is a lil pricy! Now they have soundproof underpad for laminate that costs almost as much as the laminate itself! Its all about prefence IMO!

Thanks, Millsy

[coho_killer]
