Flooring???
We have been in our home for 10 years and have tile in the foyer and kitchin with linolem in the baths and carpet in all the other rooms. We replaced the original (low grade) carpet 6 years ago with a upgraded carpet and it looks like new. We never walk into the house with our shoes on, we have a shoe rack in the garage and they stay there so we do not track in any outside dirt. If we tire of the carpeting, we will go with wood laminate as friends have it and they like the looks and ease of cleaning. The big mistake we made was to put tile in the shower. After 10 years there is no good way to clean the grout on the floor and remove the mold. We have a large shower and to replace the tile with solid surface materials will cost $7,000 - 9,000 dollars so we are puting that project on hold.
