Linoleum Removal

I'm removing kitchen linoleum from a house built in 1977. Much of the backing from the bottom layer is still stuck to the floor. Any removal tips? Precautions? I need it removed, as we are extending hardwood from an adjoining area, to open up kitchen, dining and living areas. Read our expert's answer »

Engineered Flooring

We have taken up carpeting from a large area, however the foam backing is glued to the floor. Can we lay engineered flooring over this if we use the proper underlay for engineered flooring first, or is it necessary to scrape off all the foam backing first? It is a smooth surface and will be very labour intensive to remove this foam. Thank you. Read our expert's answer »
