I just took delivery of my new washing machine to find that they couldn't/wouldn't get it out from under the newER laminate flooring. I've never liked it and the delivery men have departed. How do my daughter and I rip out the bit of flooring to free the old washing machine? Thanks.

When you lift the front up ........... do as Dodger suggested .......... check the front adjustable legs ............. screw them up as tight as poss, or break them off.

I'm afraid a big burly delivery lad from Manchester tried that this morning. Nope, I reckon it has to be the death of the floor. Mwah Ha Ha!!!

My back is killing me but I've got half the floor up thanks to a hammer and crowbar. Never realised what versatile things crowbars are!!

Oh chrissa! I was in on your first enquiry re washing- machine replacement and I'm so sorry you're having all these probs. Why do the simplest jobs turn out to be a pain? ( Incidentally, i'm with you - can't stand laminate flooring!
