Hi Fellas I need someone to quote to do our showroom with some contract vinyl in surrey around 100m2 pm me if interested.
Trying to get my head around this ! Surely if its your show room you would be best installing some impressive floors showing off what you can do? So in your case wood flooring? If you are putting down Vinyl but you dont offer it as a product you sell and install, well isn't your customers going to see it and maybe want some thing you cant do? I would guess you will loose custom and put dought into a customers head of how competent you are if the products your selling when you dont even have on your show room floor, let alone its something you dont specialize in? not what you specialize in and worse you dont know how to install? Sorry mate for sounding negative, i just think you need to re-think what your putting on your show room floor. Its a SHOWROOM after all. if you went to a ford showrrom and they had a audi in there and you say i want to buy the audi and they say .... ummm we dont sell audi's, we just drive them as personal cars,then wouldnt you be thinking " why you got it in here, and whats wrong with the ford that the staff selling ford drive Audis? "
Thanks for your reply Matt. we have always showed off our wooden floors on our show room floors and has always looked fantastic ( ask merit). However in 2013 our showroom was flooded a total of 6 times some worse than others, so having spending ££££££ on prevention over the course of the year from this happening again I have decided to have a change from the norm. No we don't sell vinyl or plan on doing so. Just wood. Because of our client base and the foot traffic we get the wood does get trashed quite quickly and we are then having to cut back and re-seal, which thankfully I'm too busy to be doing. So Matt what would you do ?? I did like your rant about the Audi and the ford We do very well in this area and will continue to do so. I understand where you coming from but maybe you should find out the facts first.
Lol, don't worry Jim il fit some safety flooring for you. As long as you don't want it cap and coved!! It is a cracking showroom
Hi Brenchy, i hear where you coming from but putting down vinyl will not help against flooding. As for you saying "maybe you should find out the facts first" , well thats exactly what im trying to do as i could not understand why your doing what your doing. Maybe it would of been easier saying what the issues are your having. Anyway, i know the facts now and you seem to have your plan. We have a resin pressure impregnated wood flooring we require testing in a area subject to flooding. We are looking at installing at a marina where the club house keeps getting flooded. If it survives 12 months i will let you know.
if your lookin for a long term solution to the flooding , go g19 adhesive with your vinyl, no more problems!
mapei polyurethene adhesive, completely water tolerant! just watch the screed you put below. great gear short workin time!
