Howdy, I’m about to install a click and lock, floating laminate floor in my son’s room. I never did such a thing before, although I have installed a glue down, engineered floor. That gives me a little knowledge on the remedial subjects. I’m planning on using a foam underlayment to make it serve for noise reduction and as a vapor barrier. One thing I do know is this laminate is pretty cheap and It won’t do well with moisture but I only need it to do the job until he moves out of the house. That should be a max of 10 years for a doctorate. (Like I’m made of money – I’m using cheap laminate for heavens sake! If he wants to be called doctor, he can pay for my retirement.) I’ll ask a goofy question. Do I install the baseboard touching the top of the floating floor or do I give it a little gap. Second Goofy question – are there any common mistakes I can avoid? Thanks Very much for looking. -- Working on my home for 2 years and counting. |
