Making Flooring Easy

HOW TO SHOP FOR FLOORING from https://floorstoyourhome.com/
How do you even begin to shop for a new floor? How do you anticipate the final cost? Is it better to bundle the floor material with installation? How do you figure out what kind of flooring to get?
Who arranges installation?
I mentioned 'subfloors' in the show, and if you don't want to wait until I get to it here, this article should get you up to speed: "What's a subfloor?" https://floorstoyourhome.com/resource-center/10-basics/50/what-is-a-subfloor
And here's our whole Expert Center, if you just want to poke around and learn without waiting for us to get to something: https://floorstoyourhome.com/resource-center/
Music for our show came from FreePD.com, who demand no attribution, and specifically by Kevin MacLeod of https://incompetech.com/. We like what he does.

Produced by https://FloorsToYourHome.com/

00 - Making Flooring Easy Podcast Trailer

This comes from https://floorstoyourhome.com/
I mean... we’re flooring people, from an outlet store basically, and it looks to us like just figuring our how to pick the right floor is daunting at best. In your life, you’ll do it less often than you’ll buy cars, and that’s a pretty taxing thing to do. So we’re trying to start from scratch and be as basic and clear as we can about doing this, so you can find what you want, wherever you end up shopping.
We’ll have regular episodes, chats between Dan (who owns the company) and me (I’m David – just your host, though I’ve done my research on flooring too). Where relevant, I’ll pop some mini-episodes in between those, basically reading any articles we’ve written going into more details on the big topic. We’ll try to title these so you can easily get to the ones that matter to you and skip the others (if you don’t want ceramic tile, why listen to a piece on ceramic tile? You’ve already got enough to consider).
Music is from FreePD.com (by Kevin MacLeod)

FLOOR SHOPPING - Ep. 01a - When Do You Need a New Floor

It’s not like a busted television. The determination to replace a floor can be forced on you, or it can be a matter of whim or opportunity. There are many kinds of flooring, each with many factors to consider, and it’s an expensive proposition, so you need to take it seriously. We’ll try to help, sorting the factors to consider by how certainly they mean that your old floor is done.
This is our first mini-episode, based on this article, if you'd like to see it in e-print:
