This is a community to discuss the housing crisis in Canada.
All so Canadians can find a decent home to live in.
Racism is still absolutely prohibited, but you are welcome to debate population growth, immigration rate, foreign home buyers, and the merits of single family homes or the green zone.
A merge of r/canadahousing and r/canadahousing2 for those coming from Reddit.
Bits of the sidebar and logo taken from those subs and will be going through a slight revision as things get settled.

Relatively cheap to install especially when it can be laid over the old flooring but it's not exactly cheap to buy though. Personally I vastly prefer the feel of LVP to laminate or parquet. It feels warmer and softer and is also much less slippery and waterproof. As a general contractor I also prefer installing it over the others.
The last time I installed them was a few years ago so "cheap" might have changed since then. But I did a 20'x15' kitchen all by myself with a pair of scissors for like $300 and about a day's work. (Though I didn't put it down over hardwood because I'm not a monster.)
