What's wrong with vinyl flooring in the kitchen?
Comments (47)I thought I might add to the discussion a photo of the floors we put in our kitchen, entry, bathrooms. I tried to capture a reflection to show the texture. This little bathroom has only been used as storage for our remodeling materials. Sweet husband is installing a toilet today . Please note that this floor is filthy; I've not cleans it since it was installed 3 months ago. I promise to clean the floors today now that it'll actually be used as a bath and not a closet :-) It's mannington luxury sheet vinyl in woods towne natural, a maple look....See MoreAnyone familiar with Calypso Laminate?
Comments (115)I am about to install Atroguard Southern Trail in my entire downstairs. I had a water leak which damaged all of my engineered hardwoods, which I hated. I've looked at other engineered hardwood, Coretec, luxury vinyl, and now the water-resistant laminate. The water-resistant laminate looks and feels so much more like real hardwood. I brought a piece of hardwood home and actually liked the look and feel of the laminate much better than the vinyl, Coretec, or engineered hardwood. It is 7.7" wide and about as thick as real hardwood. I certainly hope I don't have any of the problems described above....See Morecontractor bid question
Comments (32)I'm not saying I'll kick him off the job at all. but if he doesn't act in a reasonable manner when I tell him that he can't charge me for airspace and provide a good reason why he needs more money, I have options. honestly I don't know anyone who is patient enough to wait 9-12 months past promised end date ... I'm very understanding and reasonable. but I think I've had enough BS and if he can't put the finishing touches on the house, which has been in this finishing phase for 9 months, I have got to get somebody else who can....See MoreBathroom flooring choices for elderly
Comments (29)Another suggestion for when the time comes. If anyone falls but is uninjured have your local fire station or fire department non-emergency telephone number so you can call for what is called "Lift Assist". Fire department will send someone to help get them on their feet without sending police and full fire equipment with sirens blasting. They will always ask if the person hit their head. If you think they need to go and they are refusing simply state they may have hit their head. They will take the person to the emergency room immediately. However if they are bleeding or appear to have broken something call the 911 number. Some areas have a fee service where for a monthly or yearly charge if a person needs to go to the hospital the charges are covered. Most insurance may cover one trip if medically necessary but no more than that. Last time my husband needed transport I called a medical transport company rather than the ambulance. $150 vs. $780 and that was three years ago....See Moreelcieg
