Needing help choosing Coretec flooring color.
Comments (9)At one point, I was considering CoreTec, as well. I had a local mom-and-pop flooring shop come out to my house, measure every room, and discuss what I wanted out of my floors. The sales rep (the son of the owners) flat out told me that, given my situation, he would NOT recommend LVP. He said that dark LVP (I gotta have dark floors, lol; I just love them) + lots of sunshine (my main living areas all face south, with considerable eastern light as well) + tons of kids + 160 pound dog = very unhappy Me. He assured me that I would see every single scratch, every single day, and that it would bug me to high Heaven. He's right. He recommended wood look tile for my slab-on-grade house. I expressed skepticism, remarking that, "I'm not sure you'll be able to get the grout lines small enough for me, without voiding the warranty on the tile...." And he proceeded to show me photos on his phone of itty bitty grout lines on a wood look tile. Not that I'm necessarily saying you should go with tile, but know the non-cleaning downsides to dark LVP. :-)...See MoreCoretec Flooring: Tulsa Oak
Comments (12)Check all the trim pieces from Coretec before installation! We had a Palo Alto Walnut Coretec floor installed in August. As they were getting ready to install the T-moulding I realized the color was off. Also it was supposed to be skimmed in the same pattern as the planking but wasn't. They didn't install it. The quarter round was also off but similar enough in color that we agreed to keep it. FIVE MONTHS later Coretec informed the installer that Palo Alto Walnut is discontinued and we won't be getting the T-moulding. Back to square one. I am so frustrated. My guess is that they are outsourcing the trim pieces without telling anyone. Someone mentioned that Shaw bought Coretec....See MoreWhat wall and trim paint color goes best w/ Calypso Oak Coretec floors
Comments (4)I have just had my walls painted. Now going to do the flooring. So glad I waited to do the flooring. The painting and new blinds make the rooms look so much brighter. Previously considered the Calypso oak before the painting and was hesitant. Does it have a warmer golden or honey cast to it. Pictures don't seem to be accurate. I need a lighter color don't want anything that is dark and going to show the dust etc. Some of the lighter colors looked washed out. Don't want a golden color either but would prefer it be a warmer look. Do you like the Calypso oak and is it easy to clean....See MoreCoretec Flooring.. How is it holding up?
Comments (2)Four years in, 3 big dogs, one four year old, snowy climate and lots of puddles around the dog bowl, one minor flood from a washer leak, all is good. Finish still looks brand new, no wear. In about 2000 sq. feet of Cortec there is one small one inch dent that I think happened at move in of iron based dining room table and one a small ‘bubble‘ (less than an inch in diameter) where a hot iron skillet fell. I only even notice these two small scars when i mop....See Morejusthavinfun
