This way you can withdraw money in any amount you need, whenever you need it. This type is more flexible but the interest rate is adjustable and so could increase over time.

If you are looking to borrow a large sum for some major remodeling, you might want to look into long term fixed rate loans. This way your payments will never increase. As long as your home improvement project is within the boundaries of your local building regulations you should have no trouble getting the loan you need for you wood flooring installation.

The elegant look of a hardwood floor can add warmth and character to any room in a home. The natural characteristics of wood add depth and a visual appearance that many other types of floors try to duplicate. With the demand for hardwood flooring growing manufacturer’s are enhancing their ranges to meet this demand, with better quality finishes and superior construction techniques.

Hardwood floors come in a wide variety of wood species, colours and widths. Besides the classic hardwoods (like red oak, white oak, maple and ash) many manufacturers now offer exotic hardwood species from all over the World. Exotic hardwoods give homeowners the chance to better express their own personal decorating tastes with a more unique looking floor. With so many different types of hardwood flooring now available it is sometime hard to choice which is best suited to you.

Different Types of Wood Flooring

Solid wooden floors are one solid piece of wood that have tongue and groove sides and come in either pre-finished or unfinished styles. Solid wood floors are sensitive to moisture and it is not recommended to install these floors below ground level, or directly over a concrete slab. These floors are for nail-down installations only. You can refinish, or recoat solid wood floors several times, which adds to their appeal and to their long life. There are solid floors that are over 100 years old and are still in good condition.

All solid wood floors will react to the presence of moisture. In the winter heating months, moisture leaves the wood causing the floor to contract which leaves unsightly gaps between each plank. In the summer months when the humidity is higher the wood will expand and the gaps will disappear. If there is too much moisture it may cause the wood planks to cup, or buckle. This is why it is important when installing a solid strip floor to leave the proper expansion area around the perimeter and to acclimatize the wood prior to installation.

Engineered wood floors – These floors are constructed from several wood plies that are glued together. The centre core is generally a softer wood material and is used to make the tongue and groove. A hardwood finish layer is glued on top of the centre core and another softer wood ply is attached underneath the core. This top ply is also called the finish layer and can be constructed of almost any wood specie.

Wood always wants to expand in a certain direction. In the presence of moisture solid wood planks will always expand across the width of the planks, rather than down the length of the boards. To avoid this problem, manufacturers of engineered planks place each ply in the opposite direction of each other. This is called cross-ply construction. Once the wood layers are glued together the plies will counteract each other which will stop the plank from growing or shrinking with changes in the humidity. Engineered wood floors are designed for the floating installation and can be glued together or some now come with a click system.

Veneer wood floors are very similar to laminate floors. The only difference is that with a veneer flooring to top wear layer is a thin piece or real hardwood instead of a photographic image as in laminates. Veneer flooring is usually around 8mm in thickness with the top hardwood layer being around 0.7mm. Advantages of a veneer floors are that they are fast and easy to install and you have a real hardwood floor.

Factory Pre-finished Wood Flooring

Most factory finished hardwood floors have several coats of finish applied to the wood’s surface. As example, many wood floor companies are applying 6-10 coats of a ultra-violet (UV) cured urethane. This would be extremely difficult for someone to duplicate on a job site finish, not to mention how many days it would take. This is one of the reasons why many flooring mechanics, flooring retailers, and builders are pushing pre-finished hardwood floors. Instead of taking several days to install and finish a new hardwood floor a pre-finished hardwood floor is generally done in one day.

The most common finishes are:

UV-cured Factory finishes that are cured with Ultra Violet lights versus heat.

Polyurethane A clear, tough and durable finish that is applied as a wear layer.

Acrylic-urethane A slightly different chemical make up than Polyurethane with the same benefits.

Aluminium Oxide Added to the urethane finish for increased abrasion resistance of the wear layer, which is becoming extremely popular on the better grade wood floors.

Acrylic Impregnated Acrylic monomers are injected into the cell structure of the wood to give increased hardness and then finished with a wear layer over the wood.

Unfinished Wood Flooring

If you want a custom stained hardwood floor, or a wood floor to match existing trim than a unfinished hardwood floor is your answer. Unfinished means you start with a bare hardwood floor and than the floor is sanded, stained, and finished in the home. This can be quite a mess and the process does take several days, but your floor will have a finish to you requirements.

Installation Options

Nail Down Secret nails are used with a wood flooring nailer and mallet to attach the flooring to the sub floor. Solid Strip floors or Plank floors can only be installed on wooden sub-floors or on batons.

Glue Down Engineered wood floors and parquets can be glued down. This is when you spread the recommended glue all over the sub floor and lay the flooring into the glue.

Floating This is when a thin underlay is placed between the wood flooring and the sub floor. A recommended wood glue is then applied in the tongue and groove of each plank to hold the planks together. Engineered & Veneer floors can be floated. This is a very fast, easy and clean method of installation.

Please consult the manufacturer installation instructions before installing any flooring.

QD Sander Buying Guide

For the best Tarmac Dublin company, call Quality Driveways Dublin.

If you are looking to purchase a new sander, this brief article points out some ideas you may want to include in your decision process prior to spending your money on a sander.

A sander is an essential tool that will get used in almost all do-it-yourself projects involving wood. Sanders can be used to remove large amounts of material or surfaces finishes easily and quickly, in addition to being able to create a smooth surface on your finished projects. There are several types of sanders out there, and several of them can only be used only for specific applications. One key to deciding on a sander is to get the sander that will meet your needs best. Here are the varieties of sanders to consider:

— Belt Sanders —
Belt sanders are best used during the starting phases of big rough sanding jobs as well as for the starting phases of large refinishing tasks. Belt sanders take off a lot of material in a hurry, so care must be used to keep from scarring the material being sanded. Belt sanders can tend to be heavy. Think about getting one that has an adjustable speed control as well as a lock button which lets you lock the speed which will allow you to place your hands in the most comfortable position when using the sander; this will help reduce user fatigue when using a belt sander.

— Detail Sanders —
Detail sanders are littler sanders typically used to sand around odd shapes and in small nooks and crannies like carvings, slats, curves and inlays. Detail sanders are frequently used for craft projects and on mill work such as window and door casings. To get the most use out of your detail sander, buy one with a lot of attachments since this will make your sander more flexible and make it usable in more locations and shapes.

— Disc Sanders —
Disc sanders come in both bench-mounted and hand-held models. The hand-held varieties are most suited towards home projects whereas the bench-mounted disc sanders are most often used by people who need to perform sanding on a more industrial scale. But there are some smaller bench-mounted options that are still cheap enough for consideration by the occasional user. Disc sanders are excellent for sanding angled edges and for finishing the end grain of wood. If you are thinking about getting a bench-mounted disc sander, additional features you will want to look for include: a belt sander somewhere on the frame; a tilting table; and a sliding miter gauge.

— Random-Orbit Sanders —
Random-orbit sanders have circular pads that move/vibrate in a circular motion with a random pattern. The random pattern lets the user move the sander in any direction on the material being sanded, even across the grain, without marring the material surface. This is the “safest” type of sander and it is one of the best available multi-purposes sanders; this makes it an excellent choice for the occasional user. Most random-orbit sanders necessitate the use of special sand paper designed for the brand and/or model of the sander being used.

— Sheet Sanders —
Sheet sanders come in models that make use of 1/4 or 1/3-sheets from standard-sized sheet sandpaper. Some sheet sanders make use of specific sand paper with adhesive or velcro to attach the sand paper on the sander. Other models are able to use any type of sheet sand paper. Obviously, the latter type of sheet sander is more flexible for the everyday user. Unlike the random-orbit sander, the sheet sander moves the sand paper in a single direction, so sheet sanders have to be moved along the direction of the grain of the material being sanded to avoid marring the surface. Like the random-orbit sander, sheet sanders are very versatile and they can be used on a lot of different types of projects.

— Spindle Sanders —
Spindle sanders are excellent for edge sanding, particularly on curves. Spindle sanders are always bench-mounted tools with a cylindrical spindle located in the center of a large worktable. There are no hand-held spindle sanders. As such, spindle sanders tend to be used by more industrial users and wood-working enthusiasts. If looking for a spindle sander, your best option is to look for one with an oscillating spindle; the oscillations increases the rate at which the sander removes material and it reduces the probability of gouging the material being sanded.

Natural wood is widely considered one of the most appealing looks for a home. The possibilities it offers to create individual expressions are nearly limitless.

The personal satisfaction of interior staining is simple to understand. The process is also easy. It doesn’t take a lot of materials or technical expertise. It’s inexpensive and the rewards are great for a modest investment of time.

Today, the popularity of flea market bargain hunting amplifies the value of staining. When that perfect piece of furniture is found with an unsightly coat of chipped paint masking its beauty, an afternoon staining session can transform an ugly-duckling piece into a family treasure.

Often, the natural beauty of wood is hidden under paint or disguised by years of use. With just the right stain, you can turn a seemingly ordinary piece of furniture into a treasured possession. “Consumers can now choose a look that fits their personality, the room or both,” says Khristine Selelyo, marketing manager for Olympic Stains.

If the wood has been covered before, a stripper or wood refinisher may be necessary to remove old paint, varnish or unwanted stain. These products are readily available in the interior stain sections of hardware and home-improvement stores. You’ll also need:

• Natural bristle brushes

• Soft, lint-free cloth

• Sandpaper

• Stirring device

• Latex or vinyl gloves

• Mineral spirits/paint thinner

• Drop cloths

The process of applying stain is relatively unchanged from its historical beginnings. Work the stain into the wood using a brush, foam applicator or lint-free rag. The longer the stain is left on the wood, the deeper it will penetrate, and the darker the resulting color.

Once your exact color is achieved, it’s time to protect that beautiful finish with a covering of polyurethane. There are options in polyurethane, including an oil-based topcoat for a warm, golden tone or a water-based option for a clear, shiny finish. Either way, it’s always best to protect your interior staining projects with a polyurethane finish.

Stains today come in a wide variety of colors. Selecting just the right color used to be a process of trial and error for the do-it-yourselfer. Now, in addition to considering lighting and what the object will be seen with, you can try a color out before you make a commitment. Thanks to new convenient trial size samples of Olympic Interior Stains, you can test the various colors to select the exact finish you’re looking for without purchasing a stain that may not be right for your project. Keep in mind that it’s important to look at an object throughout the day, as different light conditions will give it a different look.

The Queen of England is planning to use geothermal heat to save on the cost of heating Buckingham Palace. You too can do this to save on the cost of heating your home.

We are aRL looking for the cheapest electricity and natural gas prices, after aRL the less we spend on our fuel bills the more we have left over for the pleasures in life. So how attractive would it be to heat your home for free? It is possible by using geothermal energy.

The Queen of England is planning to cut energy bills at Buckingham Palace for centuries to come by creating an underground network to extract heat from the earth s natural warmth. The pipes containing water and a refrigerant chemical wiRL run from the palace to the 4 acre lake in the grounds. As the water runs through the coiled loops of pipe placed on the bed of the lake it is warmed to a temperature of around 55F/12C. When the water arrives back at the palace it wiRL go through a compressor which raises the temperature to around 140F/60C, and then through a heat exchanger (metal plates) which warms the water used in taps and the heating system in the palace. There is of course considerable capital expenditure required to get the system up and running, but it is estimated that this wiRL be recouped in 3 years by savings on the heating bills.

The liquid in the pipes can also be decompressed so that instead of generating heat, it can cool air for an air-conditioning system. This system was used in a smaRL trial at the palace in 2002 when the Queen s staff drilled 400 feet into the chalk aquifer under the palace grounds to run an air-conditioning system in a new art gallery. The results of this trial were reportedly so impressive that work on planning the larger scheme began soon after.

Other high net-worth people like the singer Elton John with large estates in the UK have installed a similar system. But can the ordinary householder tap into geothermal energy and save money on heating and electricity bills? Yes, for the price of a smaRL car it is possible to driRL hundreds of feet into the ground and you can not only reduce heating and electricity costs by around 70% but you can also benefit from a free supply of pure water.

What is it about spring that brings the goodness out in people, could it be waking up to our feathered friends whistling their morning tune? Is it to do with the buds on the pink cherry blossom trees or the lemon daffodil trumpets standing taRL with pride? How about the spring lambs or the hatching of yellow fluffy chicks. Could it be the coming of Easter bonnet parades – is our sense of feeling on top of the world encouraged by chocolate Easter eggs or is it the rising of our lord Jesus Christ that gives us aRL the reason behind why we feel as good as we do bringing out the goodness in us all?

ARL these pleasant happenings and events contribute to how we celebrate the spring seasonal months. How do we do this? By spring cleaning of course where no stone is left unturned, it is where every inch of the house is cleaned right through from top to bottom – no cobweb goes unnoticed or scum mark on the bath ignored.

Spring cleaning can be a health hazard if you take on to much at once or it can have its advantages where you can treat it as a form of exercise workout. Who knows you may get to enjoy it to an extent where it gets done on a regular basis, therefore you keep in shape and into the bargain a spotless home.

Spring cleaning is time consuming so the best thing you can do is to sit down and plan a time schedule for each job in advance. Allow yourself tea breaks in between. Spring cleaning can be very fulfilling and rewarding if not rushed. If there are certain parts of the house that need more attention than others then direct aRL your energies on those rooms. Get the heavy work out of the way so that you do not have to face these as you begin to tire from other tasks performed.

The only ammunition you need for this battle against dirt and grime is a checklist carefully mapped out. Allies, bleach – disinfectant – feather duster and a little elbow grease then you are weRL on the way to winning this war. Choose a day preferably when you are not likely to have visitors, if kiddies are on the scene caRL the grandparents to baby sit. Older children send to the cinema in another country if need be. Take one room at a time do not have two or three on the ago at the one time you may lose control.

Consider doing the laundry a couple a days before i.e. sheets curtains. If your list of your jobs on your checklist are followed through the way you intended then aRL should run smooth. Cutting corners can cause misery.

Throw open every window in the house to let some fresh air in. Have your favourite music playing in the background and sing along at the top of your voice to let the neighbours know you are feeling on top of the world as you dust away. As the day draws to an end run a hot bath, fiRL with bubbles, light a few candles and relax. Send out for a take away meal pizza or curry we don`t want to dirty the pots now do we.

Futons are a type of flexible furniture that are made from foam mattresses and foldable cotton. These originally came from Asia and there various styles have been derived from the first design based on how it will be used either as a bed, a couch or a combination of both.

1. Three Elements Of A Futon:

– Frame
This is the futon’s foundation wherein it should be easy to use, strong and durable. It should be able to withstand stress that comes during conversion from couch to bed and back.

– Mattress
This is the furniture’s cushion. When buying this material, consider how comfortable it is for sitting and sleeping.

– Pillows And Covers
These do not only make the futon attractive but it should be able to protect the mattress, too, from spills and dirt.

2. Frame Types:

– Bifold Frame
This frame allows the mattress to fold in half along its length. Choose this frame when you want a couch that can be regularly converted into a bed. Sizes for this type of frame include chair size, queen size and full size.

– Loveseat Frame
The mattress for this kind of frame come in two parts. These are the couch and an ottoman. Because of the small footprint, these are recommendable for small spaces and are usually available in twin and full sizes.

– Trifold Frame
This type of frame allows the mattress to be folded three times and is available in full, queen and twin sizes.

3. Determine What Size You Need

– King size: 76 inches x 80 inches
– California king size: 72 inches x 84 inches
– Queen size: 60 inches x 80 inches
– Full/Double size: 54 inches x 75 inches
– Twin/Single: 39 inches x 75 inches.

4. Ensure The Warranty Lasts At Least 5 Years

This tip is extremely useful when you’re planning to buy a futon that will serve the dual purpose for sitting and sleeping.

5. Get A 6 Inch Or Thicker Futon

This will make sure that you will be comfortable using the furniture especially when sleeping and it also assures you that it does not become lumpy on a shorter period of time.

6. Essential Futon Tips

– Get a futon mattress made of cotton and wool if you want a mattress that is very soft. The disadvantage however of mattresses that were made from this is that, they are not very flexible.

– If you want the traditional mattress feel for your futon, consider getting a mattress that has an innerspring such that a unit of spring is located between the layers of the mattress’s cotton and foam.

– Futon mattresses that have innersprings are flexible but are however, heavier than those that are made from pure cotton and those that have combinations.

– If you do not plan to move or roll the futon oftentimes, buy a futon mattress made of pure cotton or those that have a combination of foam, cotton and springs. These materials provide a heavy and durable mattress.

– If you want to purchase a mattress that weighs less but can hold its shape and does not sag, get something made of foam and cotton.

– For a lighter mattress than this one, a blend of polyester and cotton as material for the mattress will do the trick. Such mattresses can also hold their shapes and are soft and flexible. These are considered the best mattresses for everyday use.

– If you want to have more seating room using your futon, choose those that are designed as bifold.

– When purchasing wooden frames for your futon, try to consider those that are made from southern yellow pine than other types of wood and pine.

– Southern yellow pine are more durable and very heavy which makes them ideal to use for futons compared to other materials that are brittle and are not capable to withstand the stress that the furniture endures.

– When testing the support and the comfort of the futon at the shop, try to lie down on it and distribute your weight evenly on the mattress. Check that the futon is not lumpy.

Paneling is durable, easy to clean and comes in wide range of styles, colors, textures and prices. It is forever best to have the correct tools and materials, as weRL as the designs selected before starting a home improvement course.

Therefore, considering panel may need reconsidering especially if you do not know your options. Dry walling can be time consuming and stirs up a messy atmosphere, while tiling walls is less dramatic. Wallpaper is more of a headache than anything else is, but if you purchase the self-adhesive paper, it is less problematic.

Panel is cheap; however, whether it stands through aRL types of weather depends on the type of paneling purchased and how the paneling is installed. A number of home improvement tasks which includes removing stains, mildew, peeling paint, caulk, as weRL as other filtering clutters might have to be completed before repairing the home with the panel.

If your walls are lumpy or else dents are in the area you wiRL need scrapers, plaster, knife, spackle, cloth, sandpaper, and paint to fix the problem, especially if you are repairing or remodeling drywall, tiles, or vinyl walls. Almost immediately, when you have the correct tools and materials, you can begin the modus operandi to fix the dents, cracks and holes, or else remove stains. You wiRL especially need the patches that are included with plastering kits to fix large holes in the waRL area. Thus, some of these tools and materials are needed when paneling the walls in the home for improvement.

Some people actually panel walls to cover holes, dents, and cracks. A person might even choose to panel the walls to cover peeling paint, or rusty paints. The concept is to get the job over with while saving money and ignoring the real problem behind the wall. If this works for you so be it, but you should consider

Panel can bring down the equity of your home. Lenders factor in loans, and base the equity value of a home on its interior and exterior makeup. If a home is not built on stone, thus the lender wiRL drop the amount of loan giving to the borrower. Therefore, you may want to reconsider paneling the walls, especially if your goal to home improvement is increasing the equity of your home.

Few rooms are better off without panel regardless of the intentions, while other rooms in a home are better off with paneling. Some people prefer the decorative paneling known as wainscoting for their dining or family room. This paneling type covers the lower 3 or 4 feet of an interior wall. The bath areas are appealing when paint, wood, and tile setoff the area. If you make a decision to waRL covering your bath, then consider covering the walls with tile. Tile is used in many homes on floors and walls, thus the tiles are sturdy and wiRL stand up through most storms.

If you already have paneled walls and want to renew the areas, since certain portions of the paneled waRL is cracked, dented, of filled with holes, instead of going to the lengths of buying aRL new materials consider restoring your walls. Restoring paneling takes little effort, time, and costs less than paneling the entire wall. You may want to paint the panel to give it a new look.

You wiRL need a putty knife, nail set, caulk gun, flat pry bar, framing square, rubber mallet, hammer, carpentry knife, a chisel and a wallboard knife for restoring the panel. You wiRL also need replacement paneling, wood fillers, putty stick, finishing nails, panel adhesive, spray paint, nails, finishing nails, and shims to complete your mission. If you decide on replacement paneling, try to find a match by running a check on the manufacturer from when the paneling might have been procured. You may get lucky and find matching paneling.

It is always wise to have what you need when improving homes. Having aRL the right tools and materials can save you hassle. Again, paneling is one the cheaper ideas for home improving, however the panel is not sturdy like many other materials available today.

Thus, tiles tend to offer endurance over most materials with exceptions of vinyl. Therefore, when improving your home, consider aRL aspects, including cost, challenge, equity, etc. to determine what is right for you. Although paneling may be the easiest and cheapest thing to do for home improvement, it may be the costliest when it comes to your home equity. Remember, most materials and tools are affordable, thus picking the right choice is always right when improving homes.

Some of the industries that utilize blower fans and industrial fans are the agricultural, chemical, medical, oil/ gas, automotive, food processing, mining and construction industries. Industrial blower fans and industrial fans are used to reduce heat levels in factory operations, reduce moisture in bathrooms, greenhouses, gyms and spas, and reduce smoke and odors in cooking and processing applications and to control gaseous fumes.

Designs, Materials And Mounting:

Blower fans and industrial fans consist of one of two main designs: radial industrial blowers and axial industrial blowers. Air current is generated from circulating blades of the blower fan that direct flow based on the designs mentioned (radial or axial). There are different types of blower fans and industrial fans that are manufactured using materials such as plastic or metal or a combination of both.

The variance in the size of blower fans and industrial fans can be immense. Some units are mounted into the framework of an environment along with vibration absorbent brackets that house both the industrial fans themselves and their power supply. The sizes of the units are also largely dependent on the size of the environment in which the blower fans or industrial fans are used. Portable blower fans and industrial fans are also available for use in spaces that require temporary circulation or air transfer, such as construction sites or during cleanup of spills or water damage.

Uses Of Blower Fans And Industrial Fans:

Blower fans and industrial fans provide numerous benefits in the industrial applications in which they are used. Blower fans and industrial fans offer health benefits through the reduction of odors, air pollution, contamination and smoke. They provide environmental benefits through a decrease in heat and humidity levels, and are available in a wide number of configurations that vary in from airflow direction to speed. While choosing a blower fan or industrial fan, one should consider industrial application, environmental conditions, pressure levels and surface areas.
