Q:I'd like to know as the question states the average height of an office building 50 stories tall, from ground floor floor to the roof. TY :)

A 50 floor office building will always have a basement for parking or if not, it will be having a podium which might be around 4 to 5 levels. The ground floor also should be higher than the typical floor. Say: 1. Ground floor averages around 4.5 to 6m level 2. Podium averages from 3.1 to 4m level 3. Typical floors from 2.7 to 3.1m level Hence: GF = 4.5 Podium 3.1 x 5 = 15.5m typical floors = 2.7 x 44 = 138.8m say 140m from the Ground floor level (minimum)

Floor Joists. They are like jacks. There are several websites out there that can give you more info.

Q:My living area is a little bit wavy in some areas. Will I be able to install laminate flooring or would a pliable floor cover, like carpet or linoleum, be my only option?

You could probs make it work so long as its not to extreme

Q:Ok, I'm trying to persuade my mom to pull up our (gross) carpet and stain the concrete floors.We have lots of indoor pets, and carpet just isn't working. So i'm wondering how much does it cost to get the concrete stained. Our if possible can we do it ourselves. If anyone has had this done to their floors, does it look bad? Thanks

So, you're looking for some hard work, huh? Tear up all of the tile and remove all of the adhesive. Now if this is ceramic tile, you'll really have fun removing all of that thinset mortar. If it's vinyl, it'll still be plenty of hard work with floor scrapers/grinders. All the old adhesive has to come up -- all of it! Then you'll have to start with the staining and polishing process, which costs $3 per foot on a new construction job in Texas. Smaller jobs cost a whole lot more. Good luck!

Q:Ok so my stupid friend which i really like and are best friends was trying cocaine and some dropped on the dirty floor and there was like cigarette ash and everything and it was a granite tile floor type and he chose to sniff it off of there can he get diseases like aids/hiv from there? im scared for him but hes just crazy and stupid,

The dirty floor won't cause as much damage as the cocaine. However, there could be a higher incidence of bacteria and virus germs on the floor. E. coli O157:H7, Shigella, Listeria, Salmonella, etc. These bugs have incubaton times from a few hours (E. coli) to weeks (hepatitis). Cigarette ashes should not be a concern.

Q:I have dark wood colored laminate floors and I can NOT find a streak free cleaner. HELP!

Laminate floors are very low maintenance. Ironically, if you use a lot of cleaning products on them, they will actually look worse...they will get smudges and streaks, like you're experiencing. And never use steam...steam can absolutely ruin laminate floors. It can cause warping and even cause the veneer to peel right off. Having said this, exactly how do you maintain a laminate floor? Mostly just by vacuuming it. When you need more than a vacuuming, use a microfiber mop and plain old water. No cleanser, no vinegar, no nothing...just water. Let the mop do the work. Microfiber is fantastic at removing dirt and streaks and doesn't need a cleanser to help. In your case, I would definitely vacuum and then mop with a microfiber mop. Wet the mop and use it. No need to dry the floor, but also don't let water pool on the floor. You want a good damp mop, but not puddles of water. (Streaks of water are ok.) If you don't already have a microfiber mop, you can buy them at Walmart, Target, Kmart, Home Depot, and even Dollar General. I've never used anything but a vacuum and a microfiber mop (plus water) on our laminate floors and they still look fantastic after all these years. Hope this helps. -

Q:I have cold concrete floors that we had to remove the carpet & padding from because of water damage. Thinking of replacing with Cork Flooring. Can any one give me feedback as to how you clean it, durability to wear and tear of two large dogs (toe nails) and insulation specs? Thanks, Shany

If you are using it in a room that is prone to water damage, it is not a good idea. If the concrete slab is in the basement it is also not a good idea. Concrete is porous, water from the ground seeps in through capillary action. You should not use cork, bamboo, hardwood or wooden floors over humid slabs, in humid environments or rooms that are prone to water damage. They are organic materials, they soak in water and favor mold growth. They are not very different from carpet. I recommend you pick inorganic and waterproof flooring options, if you don't want to be replacing it several times over the years.

Q:I have linoleum floor in my kitchen and restroom, and i'm getting ready to lay down self stick tile over it as a part of the home renovation. Is there any special way I need to prepare the old floor before i stick the new tile to it?

You should also use a contact cement to help hold the self stick tiles to the old floor. Just spread a small area at a time and lay the tiles.
