Need help: 500 sq ft master bedroom on concrete subfloor. Help!
Comments (5)Because your slab is suspended above a basement, you could float a plywood subfloor or adhere a subfloor to the slab. When we float a subfloor, it is usually two 1/2" or 5/8" plywood layers installed on a diagonal layout to the room with each layer staggered so no seams line up. The layers are attached to each other only. The plywood needs to be dry and reasonably flat. Garbage sheathing will not suffice. Since yours is such a large space, I would suggest you do a lot of research on different install options and consult with installers who have done solid over concrete slabs. One important thing to note is the fact that even though your slab is suspended construction does not mean it is entirely safe to assume it is dry enough to install wood flooring over without providing for some sort of moisture barrier or retarder. Concrete can take up moisture and emit moisture depending upon the temperature and moisture vapor content in surrounding air at any given time period. There have been remarkable advancements in adhesive technology with some adhesive manufacturers making the claim that now you can install a solid to concrete directly when using their product designed to do just that. I have not done that. Engineered wood flooring construction is basically a quality plywood with a veneer face that is the specie of choice. The veneers differ from product to product; some have a thin peeled veneer and others have a sliced (sawn) veneer. The unfinished Owens engineered is of the sawn type with a veneer that is almost a full 1/4" thick. I did an Owens unfinished over sheet cork over a slab where the product married to an existing 3/4" solid wood floor attached over a portion of the house that had a basement. You could not tell the solid from the engineered. Good luck with your searches....See MoreNeed help with nightstands for master bedroom. Please help!
Comments (7)Beautiful headboard! You have a lot of options to choose from! It appears from the photo that the bedroom may be on the smaller side. In that case, I suggest either a small pedestal table, or nesting tables in lieu of nightstands. It would also look stunning (and save space) to hang pendants on the side of your bed, instead of the traditional table lamp. Good luck!

Comments (25)Yes, I think pink is a beautiful color for a master bedroom! The trick is picking the right pink and then balancing it with other elements that are not overly feminine. I love pink and brown together, or black. When choosing a grownup ink go to the brown section in your color deck. As you move up to the lighter colors you will see what I refer to as dirty pinks. These are softer, more pleasing pinks that men can love....See Morefinishing master bedroom - need advice
Comments (13)I really appreciate the input for everyone - clock is gone ;) now I wonder if I can use the very heavy marble bases on either side of the bed Thinking the piece on the right needs to be the same height as the one on the left - which is fine because I can use that chest in another room Main question is does the color work - what type of shade to use? I can use some old books to bulk up as needed These were my husbands parents who have both passed away so I would like to find a place for them in the home if possible Thanks again for all the help!!...See Moreeverdebz
