Flooring - Flooring Questions
1.10What type of flooring would look best in a room with yellow walls?
Q.Im getting new flooring in my room and the walls are yellow. What color of carpet would look best in it or would hard wood flooring look best and if so what type? And its a small room if that has anything to do with it
i was thinging of bamboo flooring, would that look good to if i picked that
A.Bamboo flooring is not only a beautiful choice, available in many stain colours (light to dark), IT is also an environmentally friendly and sustainable product. Great Choice.
-stain colour : light
1.00How can I make wood flooring with different colors and gains look the same?
Q.I am looking for a cheap flooring job in a room in my house, and it has to be wooden floors. I am friends with a guy that is a flooring contractor and he gets to keep all extra pieces that do not fit in the house. So he has all of the flooring that I need, they all fit each other, but not all of them have the same texture/gain and color. Is there any way to get them all to be the same? I was thinking that I would be able to sand them down and maybe stain them, but I'm not too sure.
A.Probably not. All woods accept stains differently. The only way to have uniformity with differing species and grains is paint.
1.00How do I get Black Wood Flooring?
Q.I want to get Black wood flooring but the problem is it's really expensive it ranges to 4.00 to 6.00 a square foot but people were telling me if I bought unfinished wood flooring and stain it black but see im not a craftsman and personally I don't want the paint fumes and all of that but my ? is Can I go to someone and can they stain it for me? if so can you suggest a company? or give me ideas who to go to for this and also if you find Black wood flooring less than 2.00 a square foot please notify me Thank You So Much.
A.You can sometimes get discounted wood flooring for as low as $2 a square foot (see the link I have provided), but it will cost you at least another $3 a square foot to have someone install it and finish it black for you. Hardwood flooring is a luxury, and add alot of value to your home. Remember, the money you spend doesn't go away; you keep it as in investment in your home.
1.00How long do you have to leave concrete floors to dry before laying hardwood flooring in a new house?
Q.We are considering laying hardwood flooring in the living/dining room of our new house. The floor is concrete and we have been told we need to wait for a period of time before laying wood flooring.
The time period varies with who we ask, but we've been told anything from 3 months to 2 years!
Does anyone have any direct experience of this? Is it a load of rubbish or is it genuine?
A.Would have thought that after a week or so when the concrete was set it would be ok to lay flooring. Maybe the flooring contractors are trying to put you off until they can fit in the job!!
1.00What area of california is having massive buildig grroth in need of flooring contractors?
Q.Im a flooring contractor looking for massive commercial flooring accounts
A.Lodi - Tracy - Stockton - Manteca area has tons of home building going on
1.00What to use as underlay under vinyl flooring on a concrete floor?
Q.I am about to have some vinyl flooring fitted in my kitchen and would grateful for any suggestions as to what I can use for cushioning and to try and keep the floor as warm as possible under foot. I have had vinyl flooring before and it is still hard and cold when standing on the flooring. I have even tried cork tiles and this did not seem to make a huge difference. Would a laminate and wood flooring underlay be suitable or would this be a waste of time?
I should add that I am in the UK.
A.An idea, There is a product by DRIcore subfloor which is designed to be put over concrete floors in basements, playrooms etc, this may be something you would want to look into, it would serve all your needs. Lowes carries this by the way, here's a link to the DRIcore website

What have others did for their flooring that is easy and not too expensive. We have a good solid wood surface under (1) layer of vinyl flooring to work with. Thanks for any help and answers......
A.Dont go too cheap.....home depot or lowes has closeout tile (usually less than 1$ a sq.) really east to install and will last forever, and when you do a project like that yourself you will be proud!
1.00Can someone help me with stone pebble flooring?
Q.On a recent episode of Greenovate, a television programme aired on Planet Green - episode title Eric R. The contractors used a stone pebble flooring throughout his home.
They used the tool you'd normally use to spread concrete around, to spread this mixture of a epoxy and stone pebbles. It hardened and looked beautiful.
I've searched the internet and seem to come up with results geared towards stone TILE flooring. Can someone shed some light into this type of flooring, where I can get more information about it, etc ?
I'd appreciate it!
Thanks!
A.You may be referring to Epoxy River Rock. A common flooring used in Florida around a pool. Here is a link to get you started http://mckinnonmaterials.com/our_products/epoxy_stone.html
