Is this comfortable to sleep on? Could you compare it to a bed? Just asking because I don't know.

Hi Lulu,

Whether such a bed setting is comfortable is quite subjective and is often dependent on one's cultural background, which influences the type of bed you are used to sleeping on. Modern western cultures are more adapted to thicker and typically softer mattresses that could be constructed of spring coil, foam etc., and as such they may find sleeping on futons on tatami mats to be too hard for their comfort. Though, I have known many people who made the transition without any issues, with many claiming to have benefited from it orthopaedically sleeping on a firmer bed.

Tiling went wrong - Help

I agree with Matthew, a professional would realise sooner his mistake and correct it straight away. If he doesn't want to pay, just remind him he has insurance, otherwise what is the point of having it! I could have suggested to use Porcelain tiles which we supply they are 4 mm thick so very thin tiles, they would still conduct heat etc........, but there is no point adding to someone mistake trying to rectify it. Best way is always to do it right as it should has been done in the first place. just one more thing make sure that whoever does the tiling will agree on whatever surface he will tile onto, so the tiler everything first so he want have any complaints later.

Experiences - using wood floor in kitchen
Q
Comments (12)
Engineered wooden flooring is a very wise and popular choice for a kitchen. As everyone above has advised ...wipe up spills etc as soon as possible. But from my own personal experience (as well as professional ) I have a character oak UV oiled engineered floor fitted throughout the ground-floor of my home. I also have a dog and 3 x boys it still looks beautiful 5 years on, in this time it has encountered 3 washing machine leaks (youngest son had an obsession with pipes - argghh) and has not warped or moved. My advice if you opt for an engineered wood floor is to have a large inset doormat fitted at entrances, to force people to wipe their feet , as the biggest threat to a wooden floor finish is grit (acts like sandpaper / or will scratch). Apart from this it is a very low maintenance floor that will last for years and years.... The floor below is currently our most popular floor White Stained Ash engineered flooring - the photo below is of one of 22 open-plan Mews Houses this floor was installed within , and makes for a bright, light, incredibly durable, floor. One last thing your reclaimed engineered floor sounds beautiful...if it is naturally light in colour be aware that over time sunlight / UV will cause a goldening / darkening effect ...if it has been lightly stained then the timber will remain the same colour as stains act as a 'wood sunblock'. https://woodflooringengineered.co.uk/

Home Gym Flooring

I recently equipped myself with a small gym in my basement and used sports mats in order not to scratch the floor covering and to make it easier to exercise. Initially I didn't think to buy a lot of equipment, but then I read the article https://treadmillreviewsite.co.uk/what-are-the-benefits-of-using-a-treadmill/ and I decided that I also needed a treadmill. Now I spend every morning before breakfast in my mini gym. That's cool. I started sleeping better and I'm in a great mood in the morning. I regret that I didn't train earlier.

Wood Floor up to front door or inset coir mat?
Q

I'm also in the 'inset' camp. It should be big enough that you can get in, close the door, and 'arrive' (take off wet coat, shoes, etc) all while on the mat. It will be much easier to replace the mat if it gets tired than the area of wooden floor by the door.
