Q: What outdoor flooring is not slippery?

• <div><p>Outdoor kitchens get wet and are sometimes next to pools. To avoid accidents, go with a non-slip material like concrete, brick, or rubber. Avoid materials like ceramic and porcelain, as they are known to be quite slippery. Wood and composite flooring can be slippery if untreated, so make sure to stain or finish these materials.</p></div>

Q: Should you remove baseboards before installing or removing carpet?

• <div><p>While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.</p></div>

Q: Does removing tile damage the subfloor?

• <div><p>No, when done correctly, removing the tile shouldn&rsquo;t damage the subfloor. However, if there was pre-existing damage to the subfloor from standard use or lack of maintenance, the subfloor may need repairs. For example, if the contractors notice mold growth on the subfloor or an uneven surface, you may need more extensive services before installing new tile.</p><p>If you DIY tile removal, remove the tiles one step at a time, individually removing the tile, grout, and mortar to prevent unnecessarily damaging the subfloor. Depending on the age of your home, consider having a professional inspect the subfloor to ensure it&rsquo;s in good enough condition to lay new tile.</p></div>

Q: What stops cats from peeing in the house?

• <div><p>Your cat may pee in the house in spots where cats have previously left urine stains, so make sure to clean any pet urine stains thoroughly. Avoid using ammonia cleaners if you have cats, as the smell can also attract them to relieve themselves. </p></div>

Q: What are common laminate flooring issues?

• <div><p>Common problems with laminate flooring include surface-level scratches, dents, warping, and separating seams. Scratches can be caused by dragging heavy items like furniture or from not using a mat under rolling office chairs. Dents can occur from regular wear and tear or from dropping heavy objects on the floor. Most of these issues can be prevented with regular cleaning and moisture control, and many are fairly easy to fix for a beginner DIYer.</p></div>
