    I'm converting a car port which has a concrete base; the base isn't exactly flat, am thinking of putting engineered click over 3/4" structural ply, on batten/decking pedestals. I thought that pedestals would take the faff out of getting it level. There will be a damp course. I thought that...

    Which rigid mat under washing machine, under vinyl flooring

    1st floor galley kitchen with vinyl flooring. Kitchen is not 'fitted'. I'd like to put some sort of fairly rigid mat under the washing machine to prevent the point loaded washing machine feet from damaging the click vinyl as the machine tries to go walkabout. I read that rubber mats, or...

    Washing machine on click vinyl? Bad idea?

    My kitchen is upstairs so the floor is a mix of t&g chipboard and ply; it doesn't have gaps and I levelled it. Is it a bad idea to put click vinyl flooring in there with a washing machine? B&Q colours slate tile 5mm. Will the washing machine destroy the click? Thanks..

    Selco - massive problem with click & collect

    The Selco system is pants; it only recognises 'in stock' and 'not in stock': so if a depot only has 1 of an item in stock at your chosen depot it will let you buy 22 if that's the amount required. There is no '21 of this item only available for next day delivery' message option in their online...

    Click vinyl - is it easy to put down etc

    I don't mind removing the door architraves etc to put it down. Is an underlay of some kind always necessary (am trying not to raise finished surface up too much). How much expansion space needed along edges of a 3x2m room? (room is currently without skirting) Once down, if I remove a...

    Vinyl click flooring etc for kitchen - can anyone recommend any?

    Glued down lino is definitely not an option, hateful stuff to change. B&Q do click vinyl, but it only clicks properly along it's length, quite a few poor reviews too. Does anyone know of a good brand, maybe that uses HDF, fits together well, and won't chip if a kid drops a Tonka on it? Of a...

    18mm click flooring for kitchen.

    I have an upstairs galley kitchen, sadly the stud wall between it and the lounge is mid-wayish between floor joists - you should just be able to make out staggered lost-heads to the left of the door frame. Some 18mm click flooring to continue floor level from top of t&g, with maybe a recessed in...
