We put in 10 inch pine planks about 4 years ago. They were barn boards that were beautifully planed and sanded when we purchases them.
I have fleece type pieces of fabric or thick non rubber backed rugs under all legs or small furniter to avoid scratching or denting the floors.
Under my husbands recliner we have those hard plastic/foam on one side things that are used to move furniture.
The metal under his recluner is metal and we know it would scratch and gougde the floor terrible if something is not under it.
We had problems of those things sliding (of course) and permanently attached them to the floor using a wood screw. Only have one screw in each of the back ones.
My problem is that so far the recliner has not totally slid off those things but has come close. What else can we use that wont slide arounc, wont mar the floor and wont eventually stick to the floor like some rubber backed throw rugs do?
We also have a problem with our area rugs and runners moving when our happy go lucky 1 year old cattle dog comes into the room. We are both feeling he loves the thrill of the rugs sliding with him on it as he crosses the room.
I have bought those rubber mat type things made just for rugs but eventually they begin to slide after a few months. Feeling that might be from dust, I put the mats in the washer and washed the floors but that only helped for a few days.
Any tried and true ideas for either one of my prolbems.?
