Q: Does a root cellar need a dirt floor?

• <div><p>Some root cellars are made with concrete, but a dirt floor may be better for your crops' longevity. Dirt can help maintain an appropriate temperature and humidity level, while the concrete might suck up all the moisture. Dirt floors can also bring down the overall cost of your root cellar.

Q: Can I put my old carpet out on my regular garbage day?

• <div><p>Most cities accept old carpet as bulk trash, typically without any nails or glue on the base of the carpet. You may be required to request a specific pickup and wrap the carpet into specific bags. You can also visit your local recycling center and pay a small fee to have the carpet materials recovered. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take for laminate flooring to settle?

• <div><p>Laminate flooring takes about 24 to 48 hours to settle. Before this, planks are not completely acclimated to your home, and walking on them could cause shifting and permanent damage to the flooring. You should allow floorboards to acclimate for 48 to 72 hours before installing so that they can adjust to your home&rsquo;s humidity and temperature levels, but they will continue to acclimate and settle after installation. For this reason, avoid placing any furniture in the room for 72 hours after installation.</p><p>Your floors will continue to settle for a few months after installation, becoming less bouncy as they rest.</p></div>

Q: How much does carpet padding cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-is-carpet-padding.htm">Carpet padding costs</a> an average of <b>$510</b> to purchase and install in a 225-square-foot room. The price can range from as low as $170 to as much as $850, depending on the brand, the thickness, and the labor cost. Although carpet padding will increase the overall cost of carpet installation, it also helps the carpet hold up longer, reduces noise in the room, and provides more insulation.</p></div>

Very well. There was a 2x2 hole that needed patched. We took wood boards from the entry (which weren't needed) to patch so it matched. Cody offered two different options to try and save me some money. I get compliments on the floors from everyone who sees them.
