#SOUTHERN BLIGHT INSTALL#

All that natural light makes for great spaces. so 'over' white trim and white painted wood cabinets, too. You can ask the installer to make up a sample board to show his/her skills at lightening/staining a reddish wood to show lighter/white/gray colouring (or what ever your colour palette is looking for). It all depends on where you live and local (micro economy) prices. If budget is the driving factor then a complete sand and stain might be $100 cheaper. If the fear of 'pink' is the main driving factor then the pergo is the way to get the perfect colour without any anxiety. A competent floor refinisher who charges $4.50/sf to get the colour down.is probably about right. This means you will be very close to $4-$4.50/sf once everything is said and done. You will be purchasing 300 - 320sf of flooring (depending on size of box.and waste for project). You can estimate another $50/stair if you need a budget price.

The 'pergo' = $3.48/sf for the whole thing.nosing and stair install = extra. Somewhere between $3 - $5/sf to sand/stain/refinish is considered the 'norm'.but this is highly dependant on where you live. As for the budget for a refinished floor, the $700 - $1100 is about right. I'm sure you are aware and have budgeted appropriately. This will be an extra expense and so too the install of the nosing. They will need to know the amount you will need. The nosing on your stairs is going to be something you will discuss with the sale person. The issues with 'cold and noisy' will most likely be 'taken up' by the solid hardwood underneath.

Laying a new floor over an old one should be fine. A light (not white washed.but 'light) floor is what you are after and the red oak wasn't going to get that done (not easily anyway). You are 'afraid' of the pink.which is what most likely would have happened (we can never be sure.but the likelihood is high). Note: If you don't have have an alternate planting area, leave them in pots over winter.ĭear megan.I'm going to support you on this one. After about 4 weeks, start to move plants, with sufficient leaves to a permanent location, preferably not the bed they came from. The plants by now will have lost most of their leaves, but they will grow back quickly. Add at least 2 inches of pine bark mulch the the bed.ĥ) Inspect and spray the potted plants every 2-3 days, with Fungonil or Deconil, using a pressure sprayer. Rototill your bed to get soil from the surface down to the bottom. Rinse each plant with the garden hose to remove the bleach.ģ) Pot them up in clean pots with strile potting soil from your garden center.Ĥ) Pour the used bleach solution over your hosta bed. Dump the water and soil far away from your hostas (drainage ditch).Ģ) Soak each plant for 30 min in 10% Bleach solution. Dear Guerilla, you are in zone 7 with enough time to pull this off:ġ) Dig up all plants in the affected area immediately and soak them in a bucket of water to remove all the soil.
