Terms
Terms of use.
The plain version: this is general information, not a site inspection. Use it to understand your options, then make the call with someone who can see the floor.
General information, not professional advice
Everything on Flooring.lol is general information about DIY flooring. It is not a survey, a specification, a building inspection, legal advice or a guarantee that a method will work in your building. Floors are physical systems in specific structures; the person who can see yours is best placed to make the final call.
Follow the manufacturer and the code
Installation instructions, local building regulations and product safety data override anything on this site. Where a number matters, the carton wins. If a professional or a regulation tells you something different from a page here, follow them, not us.
Safety and stop signs
Some jobs are not DIY jobs. Asbestos, structural movement, gas, electrical work, wet areas and anything that affects the safety of a building need a qualified local professional. Do not sand, scrape, pry or vacuum suspected asbestos-containing material. Do not ignore a soft subfloor, a persistent leak or a floor that moves underfoot.
No warranty
The site is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that the content is complete, current or suitable for your particular floor, and we do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Flooring.lol is not liable for any loss, damage, injury or cost arising from reliance on the content, including damaged materials, failed installations, lost time or the cost of a second attempt. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
Intellectual property
The text, illustrations, logos and layout on this site belong to Flooring.lol unless stated otherwise. You may read, print and share links for personal use. Do not republish substantial parts, scrape the site for training or commercial use, or present the content as your own without written permission.
Messages you send
If you send a question through the contact form, you confirm that you have the right to share the information and that it does not contain anything unlawful. Do not send sensitive documents or images of people who have not agreed to be photographed.
Third-party links
Where the site links to another website, that site's terms and privacy practices apply. A link is not an endorsement and we do not control the content on the other end.
Changes
These terms may be updated as the site changes. The date at the top of the page shows the current version. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
