Laminate Wood Flooring

Pickers · 22-06-2010, 19:48

I am looking for support, advice, guidance peoples - if you can spare any!

Some of you may know that in a few weeks my new kitchen is going to be installed, and before that happens, I need to get the flooring sorted.

I have opted for laminate wood tongue and groove stuff
Here

What are people's experience on laying this stuff? Easy? Waste of money?
Im so unsure, but HAVE to get this done with minimal time availible to me.

The floor does have a slight raise around an old fireplace which I am a little concerned about as I dont want the wood to bend and break (obviously) so may have to back some underlay type stuff in certain areas.

The alternative will be vinyl I guess - cheaper, easier, but altogether not as good (but then, I could mess up the laminate making it utter crap)
