There are some real good epoxies on the market that are normally used on concrete floors, but I believe that they would work for your use.

Solid Hardwood, Engineered and Laminate Flooring

Laminate Wood Flooring - Beading

on Mar 30, 2000

We have laid laminate flooring in both my lounge and hall. We did not remove the skirting board before laying the floor and purchased beading to cover the edges. However we have come across a problem in the hall where we have 7 doorways (I live in a flat not a mansion!) each of which has a curved frame. Does anybody have any suggestion as to how we either a) cut the beading at the correct angle (15 degrees, I think with two bits of beading) or b) any other suggestion for how to cover the curved edges. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Cedar Strip Flooring On Concrete Subfloor

on Apr 02, 2000

I have access to 2-3' first grade Cdn cedar tongue and grove strips (varying widths). I live in a high rise condo with concrete subfloors. Three questions: 1) Since cedar is not hardwood, will it be durable enough for flooring (more durable with proper urathane)? 2) Can I simply use an adhesive to the concrete for the strips? 3) Any special tips to join the ends of the strips (is wood glue sufficient)?
