Holly Designer Home Flooring Dilemma
 
Looking for photos if you have replaced your flooring in the living room. Our dilemma is that our tile is no longer available.....we must either remove existing tile to have a continuous flow or use a different tile to create a pattern.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.....

As the insurance company is paying a little bit towards fixing carpets in two bedrooms after the mower people hit an outside spigot which then caused a little flood, we are replacing the rugs in both rooms with tile. My wife tells me that we should/must now replace all rugs in the house with tile. So, within about 15 days I can tell you all about replacing a living room rug and all other rugs in a Holly with tile. The Floor Shoppe will be installing noisette color bio wood multi width plank tile.

Have you considered an engineered (hardwood) floor in that area? I've seen some really nice looking homes with that. The edge (of the new floor) can be angled where it meets the tile, and the result is stunning.

Yes, we have and are considering it however I have reservations that it will look like a dance floor....Hence the reason for wanting to see photos....Thank you for your reply...

I have seen a couple of homes where the tile installers created a transition strip dividing the two tiles. If you find one very similar this might work.

We like our hardwood. The new tile that looks like wood is quite nice too.

It has started. The tile floor without grout. The living room should be done by Friday.
