Advice: You have several options, depending on the type of floor you’re trying to cover.
Is there a way to change the flooring in my apartment without doing anything that would cause problems with my landlord when I eventually move out?One option that’s especially suitable if you expect to move relatively soon: an area rug to cover up stains, add a splash of color or define a seating area. The rug can be large, covering all but a narrow perimeter around the room, or it can be small and strategically placed.
The big concern is how to keep the rug from bunching up and becoming a tripping hazard, especially when placed over carpet. Carpet and the padding underneath create so much cushioning that foot pressure pushes the rug down and causes the rug fabric to inch toward the pressure point. Placing heavy furniture on the edges doesn’t stop that from happening; it just shifts where the movement takes place. works over virtually any kind of flooring, including carpet.
But if you are covering padded carpet, especially if it is shag or high pile, you will need a stable base, so first cover the floor with ¼-inch-thick plywood. Otherwise, as people walk over the floor, all the padding can allow the planks to move up and down enough to come loose. Arrange the plywood sheets so the long dimension runs in the opposite direction to the way you will install planks. Stagger the seams between the plywood sheets and tape them together with duct tape.
Before you buy new flooring, make sure there will still be enough clearance to allow doors to open and close freely. And check how easy it is to trim edge pieces to fit your room’s dimensions. If you want the flooring to extend from room to room or through hallways, also check whether you need expansion gaps in each space, which can be tricky to get right when you are dealing with multiple rooms.
