If you’re tearing down a wall between tile and laminate would you have to replace all of one or the other or could you match one side. Which would be easier to match? I want to tear out the wall but I would hate to have to replace flooring. Options?

How do I get blood stains off a hardwood floor?

I have a hardwood gunstock oak floor (not engineering grade) and a few pieces have been damaged. Is there anywhere to buy just a few pieces without buying an entire box?
Just take a sample and look for the closest match. Good luck.

If you have any extra you could finish the flooring and use a t-molding.

I had coretec installed in bedrooms of a house after carpet was removed. Guy said it would hold up to kids and pets (we have neither). Husband slid nightstand over a few inches and now the floor has a scratch. Is that normal? I bought enough for another house we own that is being installed now that will have more traffic. Felt under all furniture? Anything else we can do?

Treat it like hardwood. Dont put any plastic sliders under furnitire because moving it will cause a friction burn.
Its new on the market but its still vinyl.

Good laminate is still tough as balls. Just not water proof.

This is a BIG note to new home owners or people that are redoing their floors. Always order extra. Rap in paper and put it away were it will be dry. You never know if you will bust a tile, or something and need to have a replacement piece. All flooring has a Lot number. Any time you buy, always look at the lot number to match.

When I redo flooring on the main level of my house, what do I do to ensure that the floor doesn't develop any squeaks for at least the next 30-40 years?

I see like maybe 2 legit H-joints. As long as the joints are off-centered by a few inches its all good..

Yes moisture could be an issue but the majority of the time its expansion and contraction that causes the issues. But yes, I keep a moisture meter on me. You can't do anything about the change in temperature.
If you only knew, podnuh. If you don't know the answers you shouldn't tout yourself as an expert. I could expound on the reasons for moisture failures in flooring for hours, and it would blow your 5 year experienced mind.

Yeah. It is a house we are buying. I guess I need to ask if they have extra. What would I do if they don't?

The lengths are short.
I guess that's the reason the joints are so darn close everywhere. It's a nice looking wood, but the lengths suck in that first photo you posted. Make the best of it.

I’m building a house and I am considering doing the floor by myself. Engineered hardwood in the living areas and tile in the wet areas.
What concerns should I have about installing the engineered hardwood on concrete? I’ve had a engineered wood floor floated on a pad before and didn’t the fit and it freaked.

Will epoxy on my garage floors stop water seepage or should I use a moisture barrier then apply epoxy ?
