I'm finally going to finish decorating the house after 10 years (although I will probably need to redo the living room soon) and want to put karndean in our Hall because we had a dog and toddler with pram so carpet would just get wrecked.
I've previously installed the loose lay product in our dining room and the glue down in our bathroom and I much preferred the glue down but I have some questions I need help with:
Our hall is a suspended timber floor and can get a bit cold due to a nearby airbrick. I've laid ply over all the other downstairs floors to stop draughts but wondered if there is an underlay that I could use with the glue down stuff on top or should I just stick to ply? Also thinking about it from a noise perspective because I'm worried about it being a bit echoey.
The hall is 3mx2m and the dining room comes off it. Would it look odd if the planks in the hall were laid at 90 degrees to the ones in the hall or should I keep the same orientation? The floors will be different colours.
Thanks!
