Huge Respect to you laminate flooring guys

You are a savage breed of human beings!!!

Took me all weekend to lay my underlay/flooring/beading and i am a broken man.

I can hardly move this morning.

Ive got aches and pains in places i didnt know you could get.

How you guys do it all day everyday is beyond me...

I tip my hat.

**When i say all weekend, i mean all - 6.15am-8.45pm Sat and 8.15am-9pm last night.

 

Haha, luv it!

 

Haha! I need to ask.....how many square metres did you put down?

 

@SandyFloor - 28m2

Go on laugh......

 

What type of laminate was it ?

I fitted some cheap and nasty on saturday and it makes the job 10x harder.

Well done for giving it a go

 

Krono Vario Light Varnished Oak 9748

The actual laying of the planks was lovely - great click system, eben the mrs helped!

Cutting around obstacles and working out how to snap a board in a row while also trying to get it under the door architrave was my biggest headache and took me sooooo long!

And then cutting the beading was the final nail in the coffin (but i was aching so much i could hardly move so thats probably also a factor that slowed me down yesterday afternoon).....I mean who takes 5 hours to cut and fit 14 lengths of beading????? Well your talking to him!

 

he he we fit approx 40/60 sm per day 3/5 days per week

 

As i said - Savage!!!! haha

 

4000 sq metres next month with another 6500 end of year you dont want to volunteer to help then

 

If you pay for me to go bupa!!!!!

 

Lol..

 

Well done, the aches and pains do lessen, after a couple of years.

Think he means decades mate

 

Don't worry even us fitters have trouble sometimes with opposing doors etc. That's when a little modification comes into play lol

 

chisel, some d3 glue & decent tapping block... aye...?
