Q:I want to put laminate flooring in my room and its in a walk-out basement and it has the concrete showing! so I want to know if its going to be hot/cold in winter or in the summer? Thanks

As stated earlier the Laminate floor will be colder than carpet however it might not be as cold as you think. The foam underlayment installed under most laminate floors not only deadens sound but acts as a thermal break between the cold concrete and the laminate. It's science -Cold goes to hot. Sit on a concrete slab and sense how cold your bottom gets and this is what in essence will happen with your flooring choice. In the summer your flooring choice will likely feel good under foot. Keeping in mind that cold goes to hot the concrete floor's chill will cool the laminate floor to a level below the ambient temperature of the room. Good luck!

Q:I play floor hockey in a gym recreationally. What is the difference between floor and field hockey?

floor hockey uses sticks that are verymuch like ice hockey sticks. Field hockey is a sport with a curved stick, and is played more aggressively then floor hockey. Also, in floor hockey I'm pretty sure you wear more pads, am i right? In fieldhockey you wear goggles and shin guards. Field hockey is played indoor and outdoor, and ages 8 and up have to have goalies. Hope this answers your quetion!!!

Q:I need to replace the floor in my shed. I'm thinking of raising the walls and replacing the floor with the walls raised.Any ideas on how to do this?

1. Empty the shed. 2. Disconnect the walls from the floor. 3. Use a floor jack and a 4X4 to jack up one side of the shed. You will need someone to hold the 4X4 vertically with one end on the jack so that the other end can be jacked up to reach a structural part of the roof or a rafter. Jack the side up about 3 inches. 4. Place a 2X6 board under the raised side with the flat sides of the board parallel to the ground and placed so that the board extends about 3 feet beyond the shed on both sides and so that the wall will sit on the 2X6 when you finish step 5. 5. Lift the 2X6 up until it touches the underside of the shed edge. Prop the board up on other boards so that there will be about 2 inches available under the board 6. Repeat steps 3, 4, 5 on the other side of the shed. 7. Continue lifting the same two sides 3 inches at a time until you have the shed sitting on 2X6 boards and the boards on cinder blocks about 8 inches above the ground. Don't lift one side all at once because some sheds are flimsy and would collapse unless you alternate lifting the two opposite walls. 8. Replace the floor. 9. Use the floor jack and the 4X4 to take one side of the shed at a time off the boards and remove the 2X6 boards and cinder blocks. Do the lowering a couple of inches at a time alternating between the two walls that are on the boards. 10. Connect the walls to the floor. 11. Take lots of pictures before, during and after. 12. Brag until everyone is tired of hearing about it. Mayan

Q:How to quickly remove the glue on the floor

Q:The flat above mine has squeaky floors and it is, at times, unbearable. The problem is that the floors are 'floating floors' and they haven't been laid properly. My flats are 5 years old and I have a 10 year warranty, although the builder says the floors only have a 2 year warranty. Can anyone shine light on this situation??

It isn't exactly the floor that's squeaking. It's the nails that were used to put down the plywood and sub-flooring. The nails were either too short, not driven in hard enough, or there were too few nails used, so when someone is walking around the wood flexes and the squeak you hear are the nails moving up and down. There isn't much of a practical cure for that other than driving new and longer nails into the floor and plenty of them. So, a floating floor system can be pulled up rather easily and since you have a 10 year warranty I would demand the builder fix the problem. It is NOT the wood squeaking, but the nails, and the carpenter that installed the plywood did an inferior job. The builder is going to contend that you're (I'm) wrong in an effort to get out of correcting the problem. I would sue him and challenge him to provide you with a set of blueprints along with a copy of the manufacturers specs on requirements for installing the plywood and sub-flooring. Once again, it would be easy to pull up a section of the floating floor to inspect the integrity of what's underneath it. I hope that helps.

Q:which is easier? i have done some on on the floor but never on the trampoline.

Floor most definitely!!! The trampoline is too soft and you can't get any block or support off of it. You are also most likely to get hurt doing a cartwheel on the trampoline that you are on the floor.

Q:I have ceramic tile floors throughout my entire house. I mop them every 2-3 days, but I feel like they never get clean! I just bought a brand new pack of white socks, and now I have to throw them all out.. the bottoms are discusting! They are black! I dont get it..even RIGHT after I mop, I will walk and my socks turn black. I have used many different floor cleaners and am out of options. I wonder if it makes a difference that my floors were not sealed when installed?

It may be that they are porous and have absorbed a lot of dirt. It could also be that you aren't using enough rinse water and are just spreading dirty water around. Listen, if you can afford it, do yourself a favor and get a Hoover Floormate for your floors. It puts down soapy water and sucks it back up while it scrubs. I have all tile floors and have used one for years, they work great and the floors are not only clean but dry right away too. If you can't swing buying one right now, get old towels and dry the floors right after you mop ( kind of skate along with your feet on them ) and this will also take up a lot of the dirt that is being left behind.
