I am considering hardwood flooring to replace the carpet in my living
room. Is this a fairly doable project for the untrained, or should I
bite the bullet and hire someone to install it?

And a design question: one wall at the end of the room is covered with
wood panelling, while the rest is painted a light blue. Is it generally
considered a good idea to make the floor match the wall as much as
possible?
