Vinyl floor nightmare!
We renovated our kitchen and I hate the floor I chose. I Thought it was smart to try and match the vinyl floor colour to the actual wood floor we have, so I have a vinyl planking that tries to look like wood....only it doesn't. And we can't return it and don't have the budget to replace. SO, apart from covering it with rugs, any ideas of options? I have thought about painting it, seen some tutorials on the internet. Anyone done it with success? But hit me with any ideas that won't break the bank.
fuzzy pic of kitchen attached. Cabinets are navy and the bench top a pale grey.
thank you!

Need help with renovating a laundry (raising the floor)
Comments (7)Thanks :) Yeah decided to go with tile. So sand cement is ok over existing tiles if I prep them first? Only problem is, the new pad can only be about 30mm at it's thickest (leaving up to 15mm for tiles) otherwise it'll end up being higher than the hallway floor. So I either need to make the fall shallower or not bother with the waste and make it all level. If I made it level, could I use levelling compound at that thickness or would deck mud/sand cement be the best option? Also, should I be putting in mesh for strength? (I know I should (and will) ask the local hardware what they suggest, but it's great to have suggestions from the Houzz community also)...See MoreI need help and advice for my old cork floor.

Comments (0)My wife and I will soon begin a renovation of the kitchen, dining, and living rooms in our 1920s bungalow. We would like hard flooring through the kitchen and dining area and are considering various options including laminate, vinyl planks, and hybrid laminates. One hybrid product which we came across is Wicanders Hydrocork. It's promoted as being very quiet and waterproof. Our room will have direct sunlight and large dogs. Has anybody had Hydrocork installed? Did it meet expectations for noise, durability, and appearance?...See MoreVinyl flooring advice please, for bathroom reno
Comments (0)I'm looking for a vinyl flooring, for a bathroom renovation. Something patterned in an encaustic tile style or similar, grey or pale tones. Is there anywhere in NZ - a few found at Flooringxtra, but would like some more options - or suggestions. I would also consider a white with black design. The shower floor will be either in white - or possibly pale grey tile....See More
