Hi
I have just fitted a laminate floor and have left the 10mm gap around the edges and will fit the skirting above. However, this is in the kitchen-diner and I have covered the entire floor. The 'how to' DVD I have says I need to drill through the laminate to let the kitchen units feet sit on the floor, leaving a 10mm gap. I'm okay with that.
However, I plan to put a dresser at one end of the dining room and a dining table and chairs in the middle. These will be sta directly on the laminate floor. I guess I could fit 'feet' to the dresser and cut holes in the laminate, but what about the table and chairs, does it matter?
If the laminate was in a living room, whould you have to do something special for the sofa? Is there like a weight/size limit for what needs 'lifting' or not?
Apologies if these are basic questions, I'm pretty new to DIY.
Thanks.
