As the moths have done so much damage to my Axminster Carpets, I am considering wood flooring.


My house is fully furnished and was wondering if anyone has been in the same situation and had similar work done.


I have an open plan ground floor and imagine it would be possible to move things to one end and do the other end ..


I just do not have the space to empty the room.


Looking for GOOD recommendations as I intend to use real wood which will be expensive and need a well

qualified fitter to do the work.

Wooden floor - LOVELY, easy to clean and hygienic !! Cant recommend anyone though.


You will need to remove as much as possible from the room, it will be quite messy, dusty etc, from removing old carpet and cutting wood to length. You will need to move stuff not from end to end, but from one side to the other side, thats the way floor goes down. You may not be able to have any furniture at all in some cases, as floor progresses and gets fitted together it needs to be banged together to close all the gaps?

I have a laminate, its been very good !!

After the moths ate the carpet in our loft room down to the rubber backing we had an engineered wood floor fitted. We did not remove any furniture at all from the room and the fitters worked round the furniture which includes a huge wardrobe, a bookcase and a king sized and very heavy bed. In our experience, unlike Stringvest's, it really wasn't messy having the work done and the moths have nearly all gone.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
