Need help choosing wood floor
Comments (1)This is just personal opinion, but I really do like dark flooring with a white kitchen. That being said, Tigerwood is also a fine choice because of the stripes which can add a distinct finish to the entire room. This flooring is also fairly hard (1850 Jenka). We've had many customers who've installed this in their kitchen and they just love the durability and its not just your typical oak or maple you see in every other kitchen, its unique....See MoreNeed help for stained wood floors
Comments (16)I think the stains in both wood and carpeted floors are definitely a large issue for lesser price offers. Best to get a professional estimate of cost to replace.

There were notices posted to not use the bathrooms, as it was not a public restroom. Luckily the Homeowner's Warranty covered the damages. Without the Warranty she could not have proved which agent had done this and the repair bill would have been her's....See MoreNeed help choosing a wood floor for Master bedroom
Comments (0)We recently finished renovating our master bath. Now we are working on master bedroom. We painted the walls a soft grey. We are installing white wide shutters. We are looking at engineered wood 8" wide planks in a light wood color or a grayish color (light). Are wide planks the "it" thing now vs thin wood? Trying to decide if we should go with a grey wood floor or light wood color? The top photo is a sample we are considering.The second photo below is from our bedroom entering into our master bath. there are two sample floor pieces we are considering that are in the grey family. The flooring in the bedroom (porcelain tile) will be torn up- contractor installed the incorrect color- it was supposed to match the bathroom. Any input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. we need to decide by this Wednesday....See Moreneed help with wood flooring
Comments (3)The wood flooring is best to be matched, or you could choose a different type of flooring completely. Even with a transition, the two widths will look strange. You could select a new and updated tile. It looks like with some more research you may be able to find a match. Here's a link to a potential match....See MoreUser
