Laminate - scotias etc
Hi,
I've just bought packs of laminate & accessories to do my living room. I have several questions: Scotia: what is the best way to attach these to a painted skirting board? Pins? Glue? If so, what type? Will the scotia ever expand? If I cut it with a mitre to fit around the room, will it ever expand and pop out? End profile: I'm going from laminate to carpet - both on concrete. I'll have to cut the carpet and attach it to one of those bits of wood with nails in it (gripper?). Will this look messy if I cut the carpet with a stanley knife up to the end profile? Are there any tricks to getting it to look right? It's a standard cheap nylon (polyester?) carpet that was put into the flat when they were built. I bough Quick stepp 800. I have a sofa in the room, that won't move out easily. Is it ok to move it onto the 1/2 that's already layed, and finish the laminate off? Or is that a bit dodgy? |
