fnkysknky   10 #28 Posted November 15, 2005 B&Q do not sell high quality laminate flooring, never have and never will. Most of their stuff is made by Floormaster and they are by no means one of the best manufacturers.  2 brands that are worth checking out are Quick Step and Pergo - Doors & Floors Galore on Attercliffe Road do both but Quick Step is available all over the place. They're the only 2 brands I'll recommend - fitted loads and most are naff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

max   13 #30 Posted November 17, 2005 Try Harrison Flooring who fitted our wooden flooring but also fits laminates.  07951561910  Personally, I'd avoid the laminates and go for a solid wood floor. A bit more expensive but the difference is well worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
parcher   10 #31 Posted April 12, 2006 I want to put in laminate flooring in the hall and on the landing but I want to keep carpet on the stairs. (My German relatives have bare stairs and it always sounds like a herd of elephants tramping up and down) Tacking carpet down on the bottom stair is no problem, but what do you do at the top of the stairs, where the landing starts?

pinklady   10 #32 Posted April 12, 2006 (edited) I have laminate all over the house, but have kept carpet on the stairs and landing because i couldnt think of how to stop carpet and start laminate at the top of the stairs. I suppose you could have carpet going up the upper part of yr last stair and have the laminate over the top of yr first step? ________ Health Shop Edited February 13, 2011 by pinklady Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

surfinjim   10 #35 Posted April 12, 2006 Ive got a double edged door plate with carpet into one side, and laminate from the other side. Its like an elongated H shape. I think it came from Glyn Webbs at Wadsley Bridge and makes the job look really tidy.  Cheers  Jim:thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mathom   10 #36 Posted April 12, 2006 I'd just keep the carpet running across the landing as laminate can be slippy and I'd be afraid of flying down the stairs! Or you could run the carpet up to a suitable point, say where there is an L shape, end it with a good carpet gripper thingie (can't think what they are called, the brass things!), and then continue with laminate away from the top of the steps.  Could stair rods help too?
