Jamesy Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Can anyone suggest good places to try (shop or online) for a good deal on some "rustic oak" laminate flooring. I need about 40m square. Found some in FOCUS for £5.39 a square meter which was pretty good (thats without the beading) muchos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 We have fitted loads of different types over the years and Howdens stuff is still the best imo, you need to know somebody with an account to get it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted January 12, 2010 Author Share Posted January 12, 2010 thanx mate - not sure if i need the heavy duty stuff or not - the shops not really busy with footfall all day. Focus @ £5.39 a square meter was good. Any idea on the cost @ Howdens J >? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted January 12, 2010 Author Share Posted January 12, 2010 Just rang Howdens - the V groove stuff is £52 a squre meter!!!!!!!! obviously thats less the "traders" discount but im going to need about a 90% discount off that!!!
