Create Your Own Action

Long Term Home Improvements - Flooring

Install environmentally friendly flooring extending the life of our 1937 built Swissvale home. We've installed PERGO Laminate, interlocking flooring on our ground floor. We will do the second floor in the next few years. The flooring is designed to lock in place so no adhesives are needed. The new flooring will not only provide our family with a healthy and clean surface to live on, it will also aid in insulation and I look forward to seeing the difference in our gas use next season.

    Great job everyone! Only a couple more days to go! I agree Kate I like the ease and gratification of using the tools. Has anyone won anything yet? Do share! I think we all got a coupon for gluten free pepperoni rolls yum!!

    I feel like checking in should be intuitive but I haven’t yet figured out how to do it. Anyone know?

      Hi Dana! It was puzzling to me too at first. Once you are logged in, go to your dashboard and click the button for any actions you've completed that day- this is you "checking in" on the actions you've committed to.
