VAT will stay and be covered by underlayment, wood flooring will be floating installed on the top. Based on contractor, I have also ordered quarter round, there will be not taller base. White baseboard will stay too.

There are two issues if removing the white baseboard: 1) It may not be easy to remove it, since it is likely VAT tile (containing Asbestos) below the carpet. So it is better to leave it alone. AND the white baseboard is stalled BEFORE tile installation. That says, white baseboard is NOT on the...

For the FIRST photo, does anyone know if it is an issue if I keep the white baseboard now and install wood flooring, but I may decide to remove wood panel in a few years. Thanks.

Yes, the dark wood panel will be painted with a light color. But go back to original question (not about color), should I keep the baseboard?

Attached photos: I will replace carpet with engineered wood flooring. Now should I keep the white baseboard? The reason to keep it is: the vertical strip is not long enough to reach wood flooring. I am not sure if there is a problem to keep the white board. My concern is: I am going to...

Suddenly I am very hesitating about choosing color of wood flooring. Existing wood flooring (upper floors and staircase) is solid white oak, lower floor is carpet. I would like to replace carpet with engineered wood flooring. The color of the wall of lower floor is much darker than that of...

I need to make a decision soon, contractor is waiting for my decision. Since ProSource is slow to reply to my email, and it may end up they are not interested in selling wood flooring to me. I have been to Lumber Liquidators, but I have not been to ProSource or Floor&Decor. It is very likely...

Thanks much!

Are you sure prosource will sell wood to me, as they deal with whole sale. I have only a few hundred square feet (half below the ground), the other areas of my house are already installed with hardwood flooring, white oak, I believe. Can I buy engineered wood from prosource only? Do I need to...

Thanks. Question: what are pros and cons of floating, comparing to glue? I will go to prosource and take a look at it, I have not heard of this store before. Thanks for the information.

Where to buy floated engineered wood? Can I apply solid floated hardwood? Can someone recommend some places to buy wood flooring? Local stores (Home Depot, Lowes, Lumber Liquidators) do not really have enough choices. Thanks.

No glue is needed? Could you please recommend a engineered wood for floating? Thanks

I can glue on underlayment directly? The material can be rolled, I cannot image I can apply glue on it.

Well, 3 contractors have come for estimate, they offered very different opinions, and at least I don't trust some of them, since I feel like they try to make job easy. They don't have patient to measure the dimension accurately, and spent no more then 5 minutes on inspection, then gave me the...

First, let me ask a question ("From the one picture that has a broken tile": the very thin tile definitely does not contain asbestos, correct? It should be safe to remove, correct? So basically, you are saying, I can directly glue engineered wood on the floor of both rooms (if the below tile...

How should I know manufacturer suggestion? I bought the house 2 years ago, and I don't know much about this house. I am a new home owner too, so I don't have much ideas. That is why I am asking for suggestions here. But it does not hurt to put something between tile and engineered wood...

I have many questions, hope to get some answers/suggestions to most of questions. Thanks in advance. 1) Attached photos: One entertainment room (carpet, Tile below it, not sure about what it is, I posted the photo on a forum, someone says it could be VCT tile, the current tile below carpet is...
