Floorings are manufactured especially for
the purpose of being laid right on top of the old
floor. This special flooring gives a REAL Hard
wood floor at minimum cost and with little in
convenience.
One room at a time may be floored to avoid
confusion in the household. There is no tearing
out of floors or woodwork necessary. All that
need be disturbed is the quarter-round at the
