DIY floor project




After a rough end to the week I needed something to do to keep me occupied. I wanted to check out this flooring to see how it went down and to see if it will stand up to 2 kids and 4 dogs. I prepped the area on Saturday and then put the flooring down today. It was a real easy project and the flooring was inexpensive. If I don't like it I can replace it and not feel too bad about it. This flooring is a peel backing strips that look and feel like wood. The only concern that I have is where the floor base is not even. The flooring strips are 4 inches wide and may have a tendency to lift. If that is the case I will need to go with a laminate flooring for more than double the cost. I have the before and after pictures. The carpet is now 8 years old and in need of serious help. I will keep my eye on this flooring and make a decision to replace all of the flooring upstairs. That will be my summer project this year.
