UK DIY Blog | Home Improvement, House, Garden – Tips and Advice

My latest offering here on the UK Homes DIY blog concerns a brief note about flooring – or more particularly the raging debate currently taking place in our house over whether we should stick with carpet or go for a solid wood floor. My housemates are arguing that we should replace the old stained carpet we have with a brand new one, which I agree would be a lot warmer during the winter months. However, I’m leaning towards a quality wooden floor like those outlined online in National Floors Direct as I feel it is so much easier to maintain and would add further value to the house. I also feel that I have the DIY skills to attempt to fit it myself – although my housemates tend to disagree! Maybe having got into a pickle in the bathroom I should call in a home improvement specialist to tackle the job!
