Wow!
Good choice of a darker floor to contrast a bit with the cabs!

Did my first Tarkett...
...install on the job I just finished.
Not nuts about the product but the subfloor was hideous, and the product is very forgiving in this regard... 
Nice looking kitchen
Cheers, Ron

Nice looking job. I recently put down so Tarkett as well. First time I had ever used that brand. Did you glue it down or is it floating? Ours was floating.

floating the floor seamed to be the best method, I did however run into a problem with the fridge, when moving back into place, it had made track marks in the floor "just enough" to be noticeable from the doorway - Easy to rip up But I had to remove about 6' and reinstall ( I did have a thick pad under it but 1 wheel was broken and it did a number on the product) I do like the finnish and the fact that it is real plywood under it.

Great work! Am I the only one that thinks Maple Cabinets, and an Oak Floor dont go well together? The two materials clash IMO...

Snobnd, the quality of the work is great. The choice in flooring was bad IMO. Maybe I'm the only one that feels that way, in any case great work  .
