Concrete will remain cold. If floor is level, can use laminate flooring then throw rugs for foot comfort. Or carpet with extra padding under it.

Can do it yourself and give comfort.

Im installing hardwood floor planks. How do I repair a unlevel section of flooring?

You will not have good luck stapling/nailing through the cement leveling compound. You are going to have to either fix what is causing the unlevel spot or shim the hardwood. You can use 1/4" plywood and or layers of 15LB roofing felt. to shim. You might need to use longer nails in the low spots to be sure they penetrate the subfloor. This is what my buddy who owns a flooring business told me when I did my floors.

what's a wood-like flooring that you can apply on uneven flooring?

I find that hard to believe. I mean if the basic floor is uneven how could anything just "level" out the floor. What I suggest- as I had done in my kitchen- is to have a thin layer of "underlayment" put down first to level it out. Then put the actual floor on top of that.

Should I self-install or hire a pro to install cork flooring?

Do it your self .. Save money.. Getting started straight is the key. Start 3/4/5 rows and let set several hours or all night.. Clean flooring of any extra glue. After is is set up you ll be able to do any more amount of wood you need since pushing it together and or having to "tap" it together can be !! having it all move around on you. Have 2 trowels, one to use and the other soaking at times to be ready to clean. This way glue won t build up as much and you ll get proper spread.Get proper trowel too.It ll take a special trowel for adhesive.. GL

allure vinyl flooring wood look planks look like wood feel like wood new at home depot.any information?

The technology for vinyl plank flooring has been around for quite awhile. They are very durable and suitable for many homes on the market today. You should compare prices and make a decision based on a reasonable budget. You need to figure out the TOTAL cost for each option. Hardwood is expensive and labor intensive. Sanding is a mess. Stain and urethane can be a very powerful odor, enough to make you nausea and have severe headaches. Odor subsides within a couple of days though. Vinyl floors or floating floors typically need a thick membrane between it and the sub floor. Not much of an expense but it should be factored in when making your decision. They both will need shoe mold or quarter round. The hardwood process will span several days, the laminate should take 1 day, depending on the specific job. Although I can not say for certain, I would expect hardwood to be several times more expensive.

A friend from work sold us flooring and helped us install. How much should I pay him for installation?

If you think he really needs cash $20 per hour. If you think he is not in a money crunch the same amount $20 x hours worked, but a gift card at his favorite restaurant. It is always better to overcompensate a friend than to create any hard feelings. Find out how much the flooring cost and pay him that amount also. Many people forget you are paying for more than labor, you owe him for organizing the work, instructing the other workers, probably delivering the materials. Plus the time he was away from his family. Sometimes the best of friends will suddenly become overbooked should you ask them to help an a project, or to help you move, borrow their car,etc. This guy stepped up and helped you out. Do not short him on compensation.

Look in the yellow pages of your area to see if you have a local chapter of Habitat for Humanity. They take donate building supplies. If they can not use it, they may be able to tell you who could use it. If you can not find a number, try contacting Home Depot or Lowe s, they both do work with Habitat. You can also try your local high school shop class. They might have use for the flooring. There are places springing up all over the country that take used/new building materials and then resell it to their customers. It a good way to recycle without filling our landfills.

I am looking to cover some old parquet flooring .........?

Carpet tiles are a good choice. Do not make work for yourself. If the parquet is in fair shape just go over it. If its over a plywood subfloor, you can nail down any loose pieces or staple them down with a crown stapler. If the parquet is crappy and layed over a cement slab, you have to pull it up. (Stay away from snap together laminate flooring unless you are planning to sell.)
