Hi Bro Annmix,

Great to hear that things are moving now.

Any idea the laminated wood floorings is from which company? Since you did mentioned that you let the main con take care of it. I am in search of quote for wooden floorings as well. So far got 2 quote from Robina and Dynaloc. Dynaloc is cheaper by about RM300

oh icic.nope im not a competitor..hehe...if get innovar/robina from you,might as well we go straight to the outlet rite?

Hi Bro Cuirious,

Cost persf is 5-10% difference between outlet and installer. Anyhow outlet still appoint installer to perform the jobs. Warranty by installer is only on workmanship defect for a year. Products warranty still remains the same from manufacturer of laminated board meaning owner still can claim direct to outlet for those warranty relating to anti termite or colour fading

Not my house, my client house. I have been tried every brand that I can find the market because some customer have rather " budgeted " in some case. So at the end, I used only two brand for all my client which create the least problem for me (time is essential for us, if there is 2nd trip to fixed - we end up loss money). If their looking for cheapest, I usually don't give warranty.

So if you the competitor flooring brand saying I am a bit of hypocrite that only sell 2 brand. Well if you didn't buy from china, I might test your quality.

Hi Bro SammoG, are you one on the appointed installer? I have an equiry for 1000 sqft

Hi Bro,

If it is workmanship, you better immidiately ask your contractor to address it..that also not sure if he is appointed installer or he may have called in the appointed installer..also you better ask him for the official receipt from Innovar when he or the installer purchased the materials..

That was what I was told by the installer that they only provide warranty on workmanship for 1 year under their company.The product warranty is still under Innovar. Later, I will provide you a salesman rep no from their PJ Showroom, nice guy. Checking with your contractor will help you to know if the materials used are under warranty. I am at the moment are just doing price survey and budgetting

so it means if i get direct from X,they charge for the product then separately for installation.whereas if i go to an installer,he charges me product+installation.did i get it right?
*
It literally means if you go direct to installer, you will save the extra mark-up margin by outlet..still get the same product, just that workmanship warranty by installer instead of them..that margin is like handling and administration fee lorr

I dont mind buying direct from installer so as long as the product warranty is still with manufaturer..same thing like buying electrical household also what..regardless who is the distributor..end warranty still go to manufacturer..

The "step on hole'' feeling is common for laminate flooring so if it only affects  a small section then let it be.

I was told of these floating feelings when it comes to 8mm board and also when large area..how large area is no define..the 12mm board is stronger and will overcome this

My guess the PU layer is still new thus still have its sponginess effect, probably after a shortwhile it will be compressed by the boards weight and will eliminate/reduce the floating feel

Yupp, agreed..but have to take precaution on who the installer is as well..i am going to get a few contacts from the salesman himself of those preffered installer..at the moment, communicating with one contact from website since he is doing innovar,robina and kcc(vinyl)

i think there is a guy in this forum who does installation..from his comments,it looks like he's quite experienced.maybe u can ;look him up in the laminated/timber flooring thread
*
Hi bro, noted..will look back the previous posting..would be important to look for current VALID APPOINTED INSTALLERS..dont want to end up warranty not traceable..or warranty card not available..will check that guy with Innovar if in their listing as one bro did mention in earlier postings

2 years!!mine oso....experienced before too:first puasa lah,then kenduri kahwin anak,then anak mkau lahir anak..lol so after so long got fed up n put the foot down...can only be nice to a certain limit...tenant is the ex-owner?wonder why some people still wanna stay on for so long after selling off the property...

No, it is ex owner's tenant..did told him to inform tenant to get prepared to shift last May since already manage to get state consent but usual lar..dilly dally..lawyer also one kind..actually agent's lawyer, like siding the vendor..but after waiting so long, i dont mind waiting another month or two..just that a renovator that I have been keeping in touch since last two years is free at the moment..so I wanna make sure he take up my job..renovator a sifu himself with 3 worker..he did one of the house in same area, seen his workmanship though not perfect but acceptable to my eyes, good enough..so making sure I dont miss the chance

Hi,

Just to check, your kitchen floor is laminated wood or tiles?..i was initially planning for vinyl tiles, the click on type(non glue)..but a member was discouraging use of vinyl tiles due to bad experiences..so making me wondering to go ahead or to choose laminated wood
