I want to buy closeout flooring but I am a little worried about not finding the same options in the future- like it says - what if I damage the floors? So - Is it possible to just buy extra and store it? I am thinking about buying laminate flooring but what are some precautions I can take in storage and maintaining it while it sits? Are there any? My main concern is buying extra and maintaining the flooring while it sits in my garage (or a better are of my home to keep it new)Any suggestions?

Great question Joseph. Yes, you can buy plenty of extra and safely store it. I would make sure it is in a climate controlled room where it will be safe from water and humidity levels are stable. I would also worry about termites getting to it if you were to leave it in a garage or barn. Be sure to properly acclimate it to your room of installation before use. I would leave it in the box that it is packaged in. Let me know if I can be of any more help!

Thanks Stacey. I appreciate the advice!

Glad to help Joseph!

I should also mention...be sure to lay it flat as the boards could warp overtime otherwise.

I am trying to find a discontinued design of the Armstrong peel-and-stick Harbour collection. It is grey and light green with squares and rectangles of white borders on the 12" x 12" tile. Pattern number 25706. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Stacy, I just read your article on Buying Discontinued or Closeout Flooring and I aggree with you 100%. Unfortunately for me I had no idea 4 years ago that the hardwood I was purchasing would soon be discontinued. I had 2,100 sq ft installed and I love it but am now dealing with 70 sq ft of damaged floor due to a leak in a pipe. So I'm looking for Mohawk Lexington Oak, Autumn WEC2-30 and was wondering if you can help me. I need 2-3 cases and would really appreciate any help. This web site is wonderful and very informative and I thank you in advance for any time you can spare in helping me.

I have a ranch house, with Mannington laminate on the entire floor. I am remodelling my kitchen and would like to keep the flooring the same. Is there any way to find some Mannington 65000 Honeytone Washington Oak? it was discontinued in 2005. The new model number is 65000L and now 65000M. It has a different locking mechanism and doesn't work. Any help with where I can find this stuff would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

To all others, unfortunately, I was unable to your floors. I recommend you contact your manufacturers to see what they recommend as a close match. Also, if you haven't already, do a Google, Yahoo, and MSN search for your floors. Try different combinations of the manufacturer's name, the product serial number, and the specific product's name. Many consumers locate their discontinued floors this way. Good luck to all and please let me know if I can be of any more assistance.

Also, if you click the link in my blog it will take you to an article that will help you find floors to match your discontinued flooring.

Paul and Loretta,

Your best bet is Craigslist. Just make sure that you put all of the information that you can so that the spiders from the search engine pick it up. If anyone is trying to sell that material and they search it, your ad is likely to pop up.

,This is in response to paul, posted 7/15 mysister has that flooring krontex, merabau laminate flooring. she was able to order boxes through lowes home improvement.

Mary Ann, Do you still have the flooring? How do I get a hold of you, and where are you located?

Hello.

I have been all over the internet looking for larger pieces of 'scrap' vinyl flooring--end pieces and extras from jobsites, or extra cuts from mills, decent looking, but some imperfections acceptable-- for various craft projects I have in mind, and cannot find a thing. I thought that making something new out of what would just be thrown away is what 'green' was all about, so when I saw your site, I thought I'd give it a try. I sure hope that you can help--my fingers are about to fall off from all the searching, and I am at a brain freeze for any new ways to phrase what I need. (:

Thank you for any help you can offer!

Mary

Mary, Thank you for your post. Please contact Rich Meyer at MyGymFloors.com. They are a great company and if there is a way to help, they will be the ones to do it.

I'm also looking for 3 boxes of Pergo Laminate, Dolce Mahogany from the Global Passage group. Any ideas on how to find some?
Thanks!

Thanks for the question Donna regarding the Pergo Laminate Floor. The best way to find discontinued flooring such as Dolce Mahogany from Pergo, is to put an ad on Craigslist.

Be very detailed in your ad with as much info as possible. If anyone is selling that material and does a search on the internet, it is likely that they will find your CL post.

I have no idea what kind of flooring I have except that the back says Mohawk and a long series of numbers. I need 2 boxes of this wood or else I have to replace 700 sq ft! How do I tell what I have and where can I find it. Home Depot and Lowes say they don't carry this type of locking mechanism anymore. Any idea?
