			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you love the look, texture and warmth created with wood? What are your choices when it comes to hardwood floor types? <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/hardwood-flooring/" rel="nofollow" target="newwindow"><strong>Wood floor samples</strong></a> can help you to make that final buying choice, displaying the different finishes and species of wood. </p>
<p>Today&#8217;s hardwood floor types have to do with a whole spectrum of aspects, from wood species to floors with a distressed or antique appearance or engineered wood flooring, to name but a few. </p>
<p><strong>Differences In Hardwood Floor Types</strong> </p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow-blue-12.gif" width="20" height="15" alt=""> <strong>Hardwood Species</strong></p>
<p>Your choice of species will determine the hardness of the wood. For example, American Black Cherry is one of the softer woods, White Oak is in the middle more or less and Brazilian Walnut or Ebony would be some of the hardest woods according to the well-known Janka scale of hardness. This scale gives you a clear indication of whether a wood is soft or hard. The harder it is, the more difficult it usually is to work with. Some wood species are more resistant to abrasions than others. </p>
<p>The species can also be an indication of how the wood would age or react to light. Some woods are known to age from reddish brown to really rich burgundy in time. </p>

<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow-blue-12.gif" width="20" height="15" alt=""> <strong>Wood Finishes</strong></p>
<p>You can opt for either a pre-finished floor installation or for unfinished wood flooring. The pre-finished version is factory done and usually comes with a warranty covering the finish. If you choose to install unfinished flooring and do the finish during installation, you will be without this warranty. It also can be quite a job, but it gives you a truly custom finished look. The finish has to do with appearance, but also offers some level of moisture resistance. It is therefore a good idea to do your homework in this regard.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow-blue-12.gif" width="20" height="15" alt=""> <strong>Hardwood Texture</strong></p>
<p>One of the hardwood floor types is what is called a distressed floor or handscraped hardwood flooring. This can be a great way to get an aged, antique look, even though you have a new installation. If you have a rustic home, this option may suit you. One of the advantages of having a distressed texture, is that the ordinary bumps and scrapes that are part of family living, may blend into your hand scraped floor to a large extent. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow-blue-12.gif" width="20" height="15" alt=""> <strong>Engineered Wood Flooring</strong> </p>
<p>This may very well be a less expensive option, if your budget doesn&#8217;t allow for solid wood floors. These are layered planks, with a real wood appearance. The hardwood looks come from the top layer that is glued to the other layers. It can simulate almost any available wood species. A bonus is that you can even select a handscraped texture if you wish!  </p>
<p>Engineered wood floors can also be floated, meaning that you can choose a simple click-together installation that doesn&#8217;t have to be nailed or glued down.</p>
<p>These are just a few of the distinguishing characteristics of the different hardwood floor types. If you want to see and feel the different species for yourself, it is a good idea to start with <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/hardwood-flooring/" rel="nofollow" target="newwindow"><strong>wood floor samples</strong></a> you can easily order online.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Easy-to-maintain discount Konecto Flooring has turned out to be a favorite DIY choice when it comes to installing vinyl floor tiles. </p>

<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow.gif" width="12" height="12" alt=""> The planks are very DIY-friendly. You will find that they are easy to cut and fit.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow.gif" width="12" height="12" alt=""> Highly resistant to moisture and household chemicals</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, you want to give your home&#8217;s flooring a bit of a lift, but at the same time you care about the environment and want to use eco-friendly products? An Evora floating cork floor installation may be one option. </p>

<p>A discount Evora floating cork floor is easy to install, since it is a glueless click-together line. In addition, the cork underlayment has been integrated, so the price won&#8217;t be escalating due to an additional underlayment purchase.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at some of the features of Evora floating cork floors</p>

<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow.gif" width="12" height="12" alt=""> The HDF core of 6mm is highly moisture resistant according to reviews<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/bullet-arrow.gif" width="12" height="12" alt=""> 3 coats of high quality UV varnish protects the 3mm top layer<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/bamboo-flooring/" target="newwindow"><strong>Discount Yanchi Bamboo Flooring</strong></a> clearly conveys the message that this is a strand woven floor with authentic hardwood looks. </p>
<p>Traditional handscraped floors are already popular. But strand woven bamboo flooring is manufactured in such a way that the end result is even harder, denser and stronger. According to wholesale Yanchi Bamboo Flooring reviews, the strand woven range is strictly an A Grade line. And, of course, this is an eco-friendly or &#8216;green&#8217; floor covering.</p>
<p><strong><i>(Note: <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/bamboo-flooring/" target="newwindow" rel="nofollow">You can view and order free bamboo flooring samples here &#8211; no shipping fees at the time of writing!</a>)</i></strong></p>
<p><strong>Features of Yanchi Strand Woven Bamboo Flooring</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> Long strips of bamboo are woven together. The second process involves binding these under immense pressure. This creates a dense, hard floor plank</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> For residential installations, you will get a lifetime structural warranty, with 25 years coverage given on the finish</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> Commercial use clients get a 10 year warranty</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> The finish consists of 6 coats of Klumpp semi-gloss UV cured aluminum oxide urethane. This gives the floor a terrific scratch resistant layer</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When working with laminates, the success of the <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/10/11/discount-laminate-flooring-installation/"><strong>DIY installation</strong></a> depends to a large extent on the quality of the laminate flooring underlayment you choose. </p>
<p>Many folks make the mistake of buying this as an afterthought and selecting a sub-standard product. </p>
<p>By opting for something like Quiet Walk laminate flooring underlayment, you can make sure that you will experience all the benefits that are part and parcel of a quality underlayment.</p>
<p><strong><i>(Note: <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/laminate-samples/" target="newwindow" rel="nofollow">You can view and order free laminate flooring samples here &#8211; no shipping fees at the time of writing!</a>)</i>
<p></strong></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at what you can expect when installing Quiet Walk laminate flooring underlayment:</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Sub-Floor Smoothing</strong></p>
<p>QuietWalk comes with such a degree of flexibility that it can help to smooth out sub-floor irregularities. This helps to prevent an uneven floor. At the same time the underlay is firm enough to offer superior support underneath the laminate layer.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Sound Absorption</strong></p>
<p>One of the most common complaints when it comes to laminates is the hollow sound that accompanies every step on the surface. With the right laminate floor underlay, the cushioning effect is sufficient to counteract this issue, creating a sound that is closer to walking on real hardwood. Quiet Walk has been designed with this effect in mind, and will also help to reduce floor to ceiling impact sound. Tests have proven it to be more effective than cork or rubber underlays in this regard.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Moisture Protection</strong></p>
<p>When installation the underlayment properly, Quiet Walk and its attached vapor barrier has the ability to wick and disperse moisture. So, as long as the source of the water has been taken care of, the moisture should evaporate. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Insulation</strong></p>
<p>QuietWalk laminate flooring underlayment has qualities that ensure warmer floors in the winter months and cooler floors in when temperatures are higher. This will help you to save on energy consumption.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Anti-Microbial</strong></p>
<p>The fibers are synthetic and are treated with an anti-microbial. Therefore bacterial and fungal growth tend to be inhibited. In addition, live organisms are eliminated as a result of the high temperatures reached during the manufacturing process.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Affordability</strong></p>
<p>At less than half the price of cork and rubber underlay, this laminate flooring underlayment is very cost-effective.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/tickmark-orange.gif" width="20" height="20" alt=""> <strong>Eco-Friendly</strong></p>
<p>Recycled materials are used during manufacture. According to claims, no formaldehyde off-gassing has been detected during tests.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/10/16/installing-laminate-floors/"><strong>Quiet Walk laminate flooring underlayment</strong></a> comes in handy 100 square foot rolls, ideal for use by DIY enthusiasts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Home Depot Stores have become known as the place to get wholesale Resilient Vinyl Corfu Traffic Master Allure tile flooring. Whereas the other <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/04/14/american-walnut-allure-trafficmaster-flooring/"><strong>Trafficmaster Allure flooring</strong></a> options come with a real hardwood look, this line has an authentic ceramic tile finish. </p>
<p>Corfu Traffic Master Allure tile flooring can be installed in virtually any interior environment, from bathrooms to basements.</p>
<p><strong><i>(Note: <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/vinyl/" target="newwindow" rel="nofollow">You can view and order free vinyl flooring samples of various brands here &#8211; no shipping fees at the time of writing!</a>)</i>
<p></strong></p>
<p>If your budget is limited, this is one of the more affordable ways of updating your interior design and adding value to your property. It can create a whole new ambience in your home, virtually overnight. The planks come with the unique GripStrip design that promises a firm interlocking edge installation. The GripStrips give you tight-fitting joints. You lay the overlapping GripStrip of one plank on that of the next plank and simply press the edges together. Each box of Corfu TrafficMaster Allure tile flooring covers around 24 square feet.</p>
<p>According to reviews, this floor covering gives you a comfortable walking surface. It is also warmer underfoot than ceramic tiles. Many folks prefer a tiled look, rather than a real wood appearance. This option may be for you if that is your requirement. A major benefit is that it can even be used in high moisture areas such as basements and kitchens. The 25 year warranty (for residential use) is reassuring.</p>
<p>There is a lot you can do to protect the good looks of your new vinyl flooring installation. Using mats in entryways and area rugs in doorways right from the start, is sensible. This will ensure that grit and dirt don&#8217;t reach your floors. Gritty sand can lead to unsightly scratches if you don&#8217;t take this precaution. </p>
<p>Felt pads under furniture feet will also help to prevent scratches. You will be able to move furniture more easily. Also make sure that you use safe casters if you have something like an office chair or a crib in the room. Rubber casters usually aren&#8217;t suitable for use on laminates or vinyl.</p>
<p>Your Corfu <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2007/08/29/hickory-trafficmaster-allure-flooring/"><strong>Traffic Master Allure tile flooring</strong></a> also doesn&#8217;t appreciate pets with unclipped nails. This is yet another possible cause of scratches. Sharp, spiked heels are another no-no. </p>
<p>Dust mop the floor, sweep it with a soft broom, or give it a light vacuum once or twice a week. Be careful not to use the wrong kinds of cleaners. Abrasive cleaners are not allowed and use of these may void your warranty. Ask your supplier to explain exactly how you should clean and maintain your floor.</p>
<p>Although these Traffic Master Allure tile floors are fade-resistant, prolonged direct sunlight will cause color changes. Move <a href="http://www.awnings-and-blinds.com/natural-area-rugs-coupon-inexpensive-area-rug-online.php" target="newwindow">area rugs</a> around and use blind or drapes to minimize this effect and to keep the shading even.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the main benefits of a <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/10/17/wholesale-bamboo-flooring-installation/"><strong>Yanchi discount bamboo floor installation</strong></a>, is that it gives you an easy-to-clean, low maintenance home. This environmentally friendly flooring product is also easy to install. You can choose from a whole range of color and design options.</p>
<p><strong><i>(Note: <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/bamboo-flooring/" target="newwindow" rel="nofollow">You can view and order free bamboo flooring samples here &#8211; no shipping fees at the time of writing!</a>)</i></strong></p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Engineered Bamboo Flooring</strong></p>
<p>In the engineered range, a top layer of bamboo is bound to a backing layer. These floors are highly moisture resistant. Thanks to the glueless click-together locking system, installation can be an easy DIY job.</p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Strand-Woven Bamboo Flooring</strong></p>
<p>Strand-woven floors also simulate real hardwood quite accurately. Tough strands of bamboo are woven together. The binding process is completed under immense pressure. These floors do well under all kinds of circumstances and can even be used in restaurants. The finished product is very dense, hard and tough. You can choose from shades such as Natural, Russet, Ebony, Equinox, Tiger, Wine or Sepia.</p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Vertical Bamboo Flooring</strong></p>
<p>Here you get another tough, hard-wearing floor. The look that is created, is more tropical with less obvious rings. With this style, a more uniform grain direction can be expected.</p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Horizontal Bamboo Flooring</strong></p>
<p>Long strips of bamboo are joined in a way that displays the growth rings and joints optimally. This option comes closest to real hardwood floors.</p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Carbonized Bamboo Floors</strong></p>
<p>The carbonized planks come in deep, rich colors. Through a boiling process, a caramelizing effect is created. This changes the naturally light shades into darker hues. Choose from lighter browns to rich mocha.</p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Stained Bamboo Floors</strong></p>
<p>This is a newer option that gives you access to a whole range of previously unavailable shades. Choose from Honey, Wine, Sepia, Equinox, Ebony, Vanilla, Gunstock, Merlot, Russet and Espresso. The staining process succeeds in highlighting the unique grain of the bamboo. </p>
<p><strong>Yanchi Handscraped Bamboo Floors</strong></p>
<p>If you love an antique-look with a rustic or old-world feel, you will fall in love with a <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/07/07/installing-yanchi-handscraped-bamboo-flooring/"><strong>hand scraped Yanchi floor installation</strong></a>. Each plank gets a unique look, thanks to being antiqued by hand. Available shades include Java, Cabernet and Merlot. So, if you have older furniture, you can create a wonderfully coordinated look with planks that seem to have a story to tell&#8230;</p>
<table width="350" cellpadding="8">

<p>So, if you want to go green inside and be kind to the environment, you may do well with a discount bamboo floor installation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/07/07/installing-yanchi-handscraped-bamboo-flooring/"><strong>wholesale bamboo flooring installation</strong></a> gives you an easy to maintain floor that may even help to reduce family allergies. Compared to carpeting, a discount bamboo flooring installation is a much &#8216;cleaner&#8217; option. The hard, smooth surface of engineered, hand scraped or carbonized bamboo isn&#8217;t likely to become a dust-trap in time.</p>

<p><strong>1. Doorways</strong></p>
<p>A bit of planning ahead of time, will equip you to protect your new floor right from the start. It is crucial to keep grit and gravel off the floor covering. If you don&#8217;t do this, unsightly scratches will soon make an unwelcome appearance. Mats in entryways will help to catch this kind of dirt before it gets on the floors. Also make provision for area rugs in doorways and other higher traffic areas.</p>
<p><strong>2. Pets</strong></p>
<p>It is a good idea to keep nails trimmed to prevent scratches. </p>
<p><strong>3. Shoes</strong></p>
<p>Sharp, spiked heels and bamboo aren&#8217;t a good match! Having a bamboo flooring installation is one of the best excuses for kicking off those uncomfortable shoes indoors! Your tootsies will also love you for it.</p>
<p><strong>4. Furniture</strong></p>
<p>Place protective felt pads underneath furniture feet. Don&#8217;t drag heavy furniture over the floor. Make sure you place a mat or rug underneath furniture, before moving it. </p>
<p><strong>5. Dirt and Dust</strong></p>
<p>Sweeping with a soft broom or a quick vacuum with a padded cleaning head, will easily take care of day to day dust. </p>
<p><strong>6. Spots and Spills</strong></p>
<p>For tougher spots, a (very slightly) damp mop should do the job. But, remember, your floor doesn&#8217;t like moisture, so never, ever give it a wet wash. Any spills should be wiped dry immediately. It may also help to have a humidifier, as it will keep moisture levels at an even level. This can reduce the seasonal shrinking and swelling of the floor planks. Never use abrasive cleaners on your bamboo floor installation. Your supplier will be able to tell you exactly which products you should use.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The DIY crowd loves installing laminate floors. This is clear from the phenomenal growth in this industry. This type of flooring is not just a fashion statement. It is also a budget interior design solution. Compared to real hardwood, installing a laminate floor is an affordable option.</p>
<p><strong><i>(Note: <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/laminate-samples/" target="newwindow" rel="nofollow">You can view and order free laminate flooring samples here &#8211; no shipping fees at the time of writing!</a>)</i>
<p></strong></p>
<p>While quality ranges such as <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/09/26/cherry-toklo-laminate-flooring-review/"><strong>Toklo</strong></a>,  <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/pergo-laminate-flooring-ebook/"><strong>Pergo</strong></a> and <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2007/08/27/maintaining-swiftlock-armstrong-laminate-floorings-luster-after-installation/"><strong>Armstrong</strong></a> promise to be resistant to scratching, staining and fading, a number of nasty eyesores may show themselves if the DIY enthusiast isn&#8217;t careful during installation. Luckily many of these mistakes can be avoided or reversed. </p>
<p><strong>Mistake 1 &#8211; Buckling</strong> </p>
<p>This is one of the most common problems seen after <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/10/11/discount-laminate-flooring-installation/"><strong>laminate flooring installations</strong></a>. Warping and buckling are most often caused by excessive moisture, for example when spills are not cleaned up immediately. This can also happen if an installation in a bathroom or kitchen wasn&#8217;t done properly, or if an inferior, discount product was used. Some of the cheap lines don&#8217;t use the required water-repellant substances in the core or joints of the floor covering. Study consumer ratings and reviews carefully to make sure that you avoid this trap.</p>
<p>When cleaning these floors, it is important never to use a really wet mop. Some brands don&#8217;t even allow the use of a damp mop. Be sure to read the cleaning instructions very carefully. It can also be that the dampness came via the sub-floor. </p>
<p><strong>Mistake 2 &#8211; Chipping</strong> </p>
<p>So, you are raring to go and eager to show off your DIY skills. The boxes are lined up and the planks look just about ready to jump into position in their new home. With gusto you begin to hammer away with the good old tapping block. Before you know it, you are confronted with ugly chipped corners, marks and indentations. </p>
<p>Whoa! The latest glueless, click-together planks have been designed in such a way that you don&#8217;t really need to use a tapping block. Or, when you do, you need to use a gentle touch. Chipping can&#8217;t be undone. Go a bit slower and work with care. The same applies to general maintenance after installing the laminate floor. </p>
<p><strong>Mistake 3 &#8211; Peaking</strong></p>
<p>Peaking occurs when expansion spaces aren&#8217;t handled correctly. The planks may be installed too close to the walls or cupboards. These floating floors expand and contract over time, most often due to changes in temperature. If inadequate expansion spaces are left, the planks will push up against each other over time. The result is peaking or joints that become raised and unsightly. </p>
<p>With proper care while installing laminate floors, peaking can be prevented. However, this is one mistake that can be rectified. It is possible to remove the baseboard or molding and cut the plank closest to it in order to get the required expansion space. The molding can then be replaced.</p>
<p><strong>Mistake 4 &#8211; Gapping</strong></p>
<p>Gapping may occur if there is a marked shift in temperature between the area where the planks were kept in storage and the room in which they are to be installed. During gapping, the planks pull away from each other. Many of the manufacturers require you to acclimate the planks in the room in which they are to be used, before installing your laminate floor. This is very wise and may save you many a headache later on. </p>
<p><strong>Mistake 5 &#8211; Mildew</strong> </p>
<p>This is also caused by issues related to excess moisture. If mold or mildew occurs, you will probably need to call in an expert in order to identify the source of the problem and to come up with a solution. The worst case scenario is that it comes from a structural problem. Mildew can lead to health issues, so it can&#8217;t be ignored. </p>
<p>You can avoid the most common mistakes by asking lots of questions and taking careful notes when speaking to your supplier. Alternatively, try to get a friend who has done this job successfully in the past, to give you a hand during your first try. </p>
<p>Once you get the hang of installing laminate floors, you are likely to go from one room to the next, giving your home a complete face-lift, or perhaps it is more of a floor-lift&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/2008/04/16/toklo-laminate-free-flooring-samples/"><strong>Toklo flooring</strong></a> is one of the discount laminate flooring options that seem to be pulling the DIY crowds. </p>
<p><strong><i>(Note: <a href="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/laminate-samples/" target="newwindow" rel="nofollow">You can view and order free laminate flooring samples here &#8211; no shipping fees at the time of writing!</a>)</i>
<p></strong></p>
<p>Home remodeling fans have discovered that these glueless floor coverings are easy to install and quite affordable, compared to real hardwood. Best of all, most of them come with excellent warranty periods. These may stretch from 30 years to a lifetime. Not bad for a discount laminate flooring installation!</p>
<p>So, how can you ensure DIY success? How can you make sure that your installation doesn&#8217;t turn into a flooring fiasco? Let&#8217;s take a look at some of the tricks of the trade.</p>
<p><strong>1. Acquaint Yourself With The AC Rating</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> The AC Rating refers to the Abrasion Class of the flooring line.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> This rating offers an easy-to-understand system that helps you determine to robustness of each line.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> The AC Rating has to do with the level of traffic a particular floor can tolerate, as well as its resistance to fading, staining, impact and burns.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> For the low traffic level in a bedroom, you could choose an AC1 rating floor.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> For medium traffic in a living or dining room, an AC2 rating should be fine.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> In higher traffic residential areas, as well as light commercial settings, AC3 would be the line of choice.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> A higher rating can also be used in your home, but the planks will be rougher on your feet and may necessitate some extra sock darning!<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> You are taking a risk if you buy discount laminate flooring without an AC rating.</p>
<p><strong>2. To Glue Or Not To Glue</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> These floating floors usually don&#8217;t require the use of adhesives.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> The exceptions to this rule may be in bathrooms and kitchens where moisture is more of an issue.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> Some experts recommend applying glue in the grooves of the planks to be on the safe side. This gives you more of a sealed joint, which protects the floor core from moisture.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> If you are unsure if this is necessary, ask your supplier when making the purchase.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> If you are advised to use glue, don&#8217;t overdue it and wipe any excess away with a damp cloth.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> Most manufacturers offer clear instructions on their websites for installing laminate floors. Check these to be safe.</p>
<p><strong>3. Understanding Light Flow</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> Before beginning your DIY project, check the direction of the natural light source. Your discount laminate flooring installation will give a much more pleasing effect, if the planks are installed parallel to the flow of light from this source.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> By doing this, the joints will less noticeable.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> At the same time, you need to make sure that the walls are really straight. Don&#8217;t just assume this.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> To be on the safe side, do two or three rows and let these stand for a little while. Then use these as a base to continue the installation from.<br />
<img src="http://www.home-improvement-time.com/images/orange-x-24.gif" width="24" height="24" alt=""> The wall of the hallway can also be used as a guide.</p>
