The laminate flooring for the entire 1st floor is done today. Inovar sent over 4 chinese guys and 2 foreign workers. It was a one day work finishing around 5pm.
Touching up on the skirting joining parts.

They helped me to cover up the connecting strips for temporary as to avoid damage which could be happened when moving in carpentry and furniture...

I'm using 12mm traffic zone series for floor board and 8mm for staircase.

The staircase without riser hence got to use this type of skirting profile.

Hi, nice flooring. I have chosen inovar too. Paid deposit to lock their homedec price.
Btw, I would like to know how the flooring was done near your bathroom door/entrance.
I am worry that the water from the bathroom might splash out and damage the floorboard in long run.
Some pictures of the area can really help me. Thanks.

Closer look on the connection between laminate floor and tiles. The floor was initially done all the way to the end with laminate by Inovar.... Realising that the water splashes will sure damage the floorboard, i get the contractor to modify it by changing the inner part to tiles and make it same level with the laminate floor. One side of the original L-shape strip has been 'buried' in by my contractor when they make it level with tiles. tongue.gif

Thank you so much. As my bathroom is kinda small in size with no shower screen, i will get my contractor to do the similar as your 2nd bathroom. With the tiles divider to joint to the laminated flooring with the flat profile stripes. Really a great sharing in your thread here and i believe it definitely helps me in my upcoming renovation works.
