No chemicals needed to clean, now that is salesman talk right there. I am a full time member on the carpet cleaners forum here in Australia and there are no members on there that would agree with your statement at all. We have cleaned smartstrand with water only and the results were a disgrace. I i...

[quote="judydg"]Just saw an advert in the West Australian for Smartstrand - looks like it is available in the O'Connor & Cannington stores. I'll be going to have a look as it sounds a great carpet. Not too sure about the issues mentioned a few posts back by tumble who is a carpet clean...

Yes , the standard of clicking vinyl in the market is terrible, suffice to say many major brands are being pulled from the marketplace as they are failing. As we sell Allure Lock, we have no such issues. Allure Lock was the first locking vinyl plank in the world and is still the best - it may be on...

This is the same Allure Lock as sold in the US correct? There seems to be a lot of negative feedback online over issues...

Both come with lifetime wear warranties. What is the warranty on the Click loc system?

Hey HN team -- just a quick question. If we want to get the smartstrand carpet (or any carpet really) and the vintage floorboards, when laid will they be on the same level or do we need to allow for it in some other manner? (Also asking as we will have tiles in the bathroom and want to ensure that ...

Hi, In terms of foot prints and vacuum marks, all cut pile carpets will show these up. Loops show less, and in some cases none, whilst level cut loops (patterned) also show a little less. The only way to totally eradicate the chance of seeing them is to buy a low level commercial style loop pile; no...

Re: remove and lay new flooring or lay new flooring over oldFlooring & Floor Covering

Feb 06, 2014 10:14 pm

Tile removal ranges from $20 all the way up to $38.50, depending on who you use. There are many varying degrees of professionalism and varying outcomes (ie if you pay more you can have an almost dustless experience as they use fancy extractors etc). It's always best to try to get back to the subfloo...

Re: how to avoid spongey or uneven floating floors?Flooring & Floor Covering

Jan 30, 2014 5:42 pm

Hi, You need to stipulate to your builder that the slab is to be no greater than +/- 3mm per metre (using a straight edge on the slab) for a start. That is most manufacturers maximum accepted tolerance. Less than that is even better. Secondly, if you ask your flooring provider to come and check the ...

Hi Scott, Sorry for the delay. Classica has 12 different boards too, 6 designs reversed which creates 12 unique boards randomly packed. It's a great product, one of the first wide and long planks on the market. With the sales on at the moment, it's a great time to lock some product away.
