Hi!

Water resistant will be the correct word to use la. Most laminated flooring consists of 4 layers. The top most layer is called the wear layer. This layer yes, is water proof and wear resistant. The reason why I say water resistant is a better word to use is because the joint area between the laminated flooring is not water proof. If there is water spillage on the joint area, the water will seep through into the laminate if the spillage is not wiped off immediately:)

There is also moisture in the air as well, that is why the vapor barrier is a must to make the laminated flooring last longer. So installation must be done the proper way.

Hahaz :thumbs up:

Should The glass dividing door between Hall and Kitchen be clear glass or frosted??

I prefer clear glass, makes the interior more spacious. Unless you want privacy.

Heyz,

No worries about the clear glass panel. It is actually quite obvious and there is a mini handle too for you to slide but still making a pattern definitely to make it more prominent. cost more lo. Sandblast quite expensive... or try frosted glass film???

And you mean most of the time the kitchen will be 'closed' right? to prevent aircon leakage from living?

Just ask your ID/contractor acid wash whole house ba. Should be able to remove the mould and stains.

Cheers,

Mike

Not much difference. One is wood one is rubber. Price also similar range.
