Nice! anyone can throw money at it . Few can say I did it myself.  Like it!!!!   Bob     I was going to take $ comment out after sleeping on it--but not really. What I mean is any one can hire it done.  You do it yourself :in this case probably better that pro: you also get bragging rites.  Priceless!!   Bob in the morning.

I used laminated Formica floor covering-- tough as nails. 

You can come inside my bus with your boots on.

Did you let this floor float or did you tack in to the existing wood floor?

We will be replacing our flooring and are considering the engineered floor also. We chose high gloss teak cherry.

You did a knock down job on the stairs and flooring....something to really proud of!

Standard thickness-- 1/4"?  Its a snap together flooring.  It has the appearance of tile and is a light grey-mixed color.  We just use throw rugs here and there and the flooring goes from the entrance steps to the rear bedroom.

P.S.  I found the box, and Formica doesn't make the same one I bought, but this is the closest I could find:

All of the flooring is floating! The only part that is glued and nailed is the stairs>Bathroom floor is glued and sealed only on the seams! But floor cannot move because the toilet is resting on it.
