I went to LL carpets to get a quote for hall and stair carpet - I wanted a runner - they quoted ?90 a metre.

Went to EJ carpets in Forest Hill, and got carpet and stair runners for about a third of price.


Engineered wood click lock in oak, underlay, beading, pipe roses for room 16 x 16 feet. ?1189.


However - over estimated by 2 boxes so will be selling these on EDF when I get round to it after putting the room to rights with all the furniture which has to have felt pads put on them

Wondering if anyone can advise on the merits of laying new wooden flooring over existing floorboards vs just replacing the original floorboards.


Moved into a house where the upstairs rooms all have the original floorboards exposed. I think they are beyond restoring as they're uneven and quite badly damaged.


I don't know whether it's best to install new wood floors over them or take them out altogether and start again with new ones. Grateful for any advice.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
