Re: Does anyone on here have Laminate Flooring?

We've got Karndean down in our hall, kitchen and conservatory and it's very good but you do need to make sure the floor is as even as possible before it's laid (we had ours screeded) which might not be an issue for you if you've had a refit after a flood.

No. I keep repeating myself, but an alcoholic needs alcohol to function - to live and get through the day. They need it upon waking up. They cannot go a few hours and then think they'll have a pint. They need it every waking hour. So no - someone who has 8 cans a day has a problem that could do wit...
