Hi

I've recently laid laminate flooring on the lower (open-plan) floor of
my house, which I'm very pleased with. I need to cover the expansion
gap around the walls, but I'm not too keen on paying over £3.50 per
2m strip which B&Q charge (especially as I need about 30m of it).

Is there anywhere cheaper I could get some? The floor is beech
coloured. I know wooden quadrant would be cheaper, but I lso need to
factor in the hassle of varnishing and trying to match the colour to
the floor.

Cheers,

Mark


Yes, you cover it with the skirting board which you removed before laying
the flooring!

So you didn't remove the skirting? If this is the case, there isn't a
solution which looks half-way decent. The best bodge is probably to fill the
gap with cork strip which will compress as the flooring expands.
