wood floor vs laminate

[Orchardhill]

All
Having decided on the replacement flooring in my Southwind, has anyone tackled the drivers/passengers side and dog house carpet replacement? any know supplier for "precut" package. Would also like to add insulation for heat/sound while there. Comments.

did you install any of the laminate over the kitchen vinyl...this pergo we got says don't install over a moisture barrier if wood subfloor , but the vinyl is really glued and we think it would be really hard to get up...i tried a small section and it leaves a paper like backing. your floors are so pretty..

another question.....did you start the laminate on the kitchen and dining slide area first? the 4 inches under the slides/counter did you put glue on that 4 inches to hold it down or did you just loose lay it under there? thanks

We had carpet with a hardwood section in the kitchen. I took everything out. Not easy but necessary.
I started on the kitchen side and trimmed the passengers side as needed, a lot better than trying to cut the right size under the slide, only have to get one side right if it's first.
