Hi everyone,

I'd like to find out about DIY timber flooring, which I have not done it before. How diffcult is it? Currently, there is a capret on the concrete floor. What are the things I need to do? Is there a book that I can look at the patterns and types of woods? Any suggestion will be highly appreacited.

Cheers,
Sam

Sam,

Installing traditional 19mm flooring on concrete is difficult. Cosider thinner 'glue on' type if you want to do it on DIY mode.

Try this site for info on flooring: NTDP timber flooring info (http://www.timber.org.au/Flooring/fixing_and_finishing_timber_stri.htm)
