Can you install laminate flooring on stairs?
Morning.. I understand that laminate can’t go over the bends on stairs but I want to replace the carpet with something else such as laminate. Is it an easy enough task for a DIYer to end up with a good looking finished product?
Self Levelling Primer
Small DIY job seeking advice. I need to self level a small area (pantry) approx 1.5m2, to finish off a small patch of laminate flooring. What the best primer to use? Too many options out there. Current floor is concrete with a small amount of tile adhesive remains. Any pointers would be much appreciated.
Creeking Laminate Flooring
I got herringbone laminate flooring laid about six months ago on a concrete subfloor with polystyrene bubble underlay. I need to get the creeking sound fixed that I was told would settle by time but it hasn't settled at all. It was leveled as much as possible before laying it down. I don't know if it could be the underlay being too thin or the type of the underlay as it has good reviews online designed for uneven subfloor. Can this be fixed without damaging the laminate flooring?
Strengthen floor joists

Damaged scotia beading
Hello, I had new laminate flooring and scotia beading laid a couple of years ago. Recently I noticed that a small section of scotia beading has become damaged. This section is near where my dining table is and a chair has been scraping/pressing into the section when I sit down (space is tight in my flat). Some of the top layer of the scotia beading has been dented/torn. It is not very visible unless looking close up. I am wondering if there is something I can do to repair this section or do I have to replace the whole section of beading. I have looked into floor repair kits but I was not sure if this is the best way to fix this type of damage.
Laminate over parquet
