How do you get flooring sorted when you’re broke as shit?
Hi all! I’m about to get my first ever council house post living in a homeless shelter. I’m disabled so I cannot work and today I found out that the council house I’ve been approved for doesn’t have flooring. I haven’t got two pennies to rub together right now since I’ve had some issues with my PIP and LWC and will be getting grants to help furnish the place (as well as facebook marketplace and freebie sites) but flooring seems to be too expensive for grant or charity help can cover.
I’ve been told that laminate and wood flooring is not allowed since it’s too loud in flats so will need to be carpet or vinyl.
Appreciate any help!
