Perhaps a silly question, but is there such a thing as a laminate floor fitting course?

I only ask because I've never come across such a thing!

Same here Andrew.
I thought it was just common sense.  Wink
Every type of laminate comes with fitting instructions. ???
A few simple tools and the ability to use them is all that is needed.

Don't jest - one of my customers had her entire back garden replaced with a wooden patio on stilts just last week.

She's swapped the mower for a bucket and paintbrush to oil the new decking.....

Laminated Lawrence probably wears laminated kecks and drives a laminated car. Lives in a laminated "flat" in a trendy laminated  street, and has lots of laminated friends, who are all competing with each other to appear on the next trendy laminated interior design tv series.
