Just got back from a reno, and let me say, floating floorboards, never again!
unless its a once off,
it took myself and another guy 3 full days to put them down
the shop people made it sound soooo easy and quick! even the guy that was helping me said it was the hardest floorboard job he's ever had
one room took 8 hours alone to do,
firstly the shop that we bought the floorbarods from accidentally sold a few packs of what we put aside, and couldnt get any more for 3 weeks them so we had to pay for the more expensive ones that look similar,
same story with the underlay, ended up paying triple for the expensive gold stuff!!
firstly the boards would simply not click in, it litereally took both of us, with our full weight on both ends for them to click in, combined with having non straight walls for parts
some of hte boards werent 100% straight, so wouldnt click in, sometimes, while we were installing one board, 3 rows back would life up and be back to sqaure one, in the end we had to cut some of the tongues off just so they could actually click in
