Hi friends. I have recently started remodeling the living room and after choosing engineered floors for the room I started looking for a professional to install it. Luckily, my husband found this step by step tutorial http://www.youtube.com/user/Theflooring on how to install engineered floors and a day later the floor was laid. :) He managed to get the floor looking perfect and save money at the same time. Check it out :)

Hi,

Although I do not have engineered wood flooring I can only make this observation from my customers that do. Although they are beautiful and do not have that plastic sound when walked across, I do find that the dent, scratch and chip easily. Or I should say the ones that I have seen.

I would also like to add that I am not sure it is advisable to glue down a wood floor in a MH, especially if you live in a seasonal climate, such as the northern areas. Our homes have a tendency to shift/flex during the seasons. We typically advocate floating wood floors.
