The Kali Diaries

So, I ended up having to move into an apartment. After weeks of searching, I choose one. It isn't perfect but it'll do. The one major drawback was the carpeting in the bedrooms. I have no bloody idea why anyone would want carpeting. It's manky, smells funky, hard to keep clean, and if you are like me, full of allergens. Can you tell I flat out HATE carpeting.  So what to do? I had an idea about vinyl flooring, the tongue and groove style. I watch WAY too many HGTV shows. But I had wondered if it was something that could be put over carpet. So I google it. Sure enough, how to go about it depends on the pile, the thickness and depth of the carpet. I thought I had a high pile carpet, so I was looking at getting wood planks as the subfloor and then laying the vinyl tongue and groove planks over it. My mum looked at the carpet and told me it was low pile. That was great as I didn't have to buy huge 8 feet by 4 feet wood planks (and figure out how to get them to the flat). Af
