    Flooring question.

    Is there a laminate that looks like a 12 x 24 tile? Just curious because if there is I may go that route because I won't have to heat the floor. I can't stand cold tile and if I do the tile way then I will also need to spend to heat it.

    Cover to hide wire?

    We recently just put in new cupboards and put puck lighting underneath. The wire is not something I could not live with but there has to be something out there that can cover it and make it a little more attractive. Does anyone know of anything that would work?

    Air tight trim for recess lights

    Moderator, I hope this is the right thread. I just put in remodel cans in the living room and need some advice. I asked the man for ICAT and he gave me a box. In my stupidity I did not pay attention and installed them. Then I had my ceiling redone and it sure looks great. I am noticing...
