Hello,

Not sure which wooden floor to go for. It is in a south facing conservatory,
so will get hot in the summer and cold in those winter nights. For this
reason, I have been told than engineered is better (more layers, more
flexible). Is engineered better given these temperature fluctuations?

At a close flooring shop I was told that you shouldn't use ANY underlay
apart from a plastic sheet thing for stopping damp (because this will void
the warranty). I spoke to a specialist who said that I SHOULD use an
underlay with either type of floor. Who is correct?

Should both types be "floating"? We have a screed on concrete floor at the
moment.

Should the wooden pieces be "glued" together?

Also, I can still see damp areas in the screed. It has been down for about a
month (perhaps a month and a half).

Is there much of a difference in terms of difficulty to lay?

Thanks for any advice and tips.

Even today I am willing to volunteer to do the dirty work for Israel, to
kill as many Arabs as necessary, to deport them, to expel and burn them, to
have everyone hate us, to pull the rug from underneath the feet of the
Diaspora Jews, so that they will be forced to run to us crying. Even if it
means blowing up one or two synagogues here and there, I don't care.
