Installing laminate floors is a great DIY project.
Pergo’s new Outlast+ laminate flooring is durable and engineered with SpillProtect24 technology, which means spills can sit on the surface for up to 24 hours without damaging the floor.
I have concrete floor with linoleum on top of it. I’m thinking about some type of wood flooring. Do I have to take up the linoleum before putting the wood flooring? This is in the kitchen area. Thanks!

Hi – I have a double wide and would like to install laminate flooring but am concerned about where the two sides of the home come together. Is there anything in particular that I should do or watch for when installing in a double wide?

What type of tape/pad can I use under our large area rug to prevent it from slipping. There are conflicting opinions when I searched. By the way, we absolutely love our Pergo Outlast + Applewood. It looks more like wood.
Hi, Debra!
Glad to hear the Pergo is working out for you.
Regarding non-slip solutions, one size never fits all, so it’s best to test! 🙂
Here’s a Simple Solution that requires just some silicone caulk: https://todayshomeowner.com/video/diy-nonslip-rugs/
It’s met our needs, but we know it doesn’t work for everybody.
It’s also good to visit the home center, as there are always new products on the market, and ask sales associates what’s working for customers these days.
A perfectly fine product, or tip, could work well for one homeowner but not another.
It all depends on various factors specific to each home.
That’s why this is a tricky question.
Good luck!
