Replacing wood flooring. Should I choose laminate or hard wood?
Comments (21)If you want something that is waterproof, they do make AquaGuard or NuCore laminate flooring that is made with recycled rubber. You could also go with a wood look tile option. But you could never really go wrong with a hardwood floor to increase the value of your home. Just throwing a few options into the ring.

Comments (17)Hi Lana! It's tricky to find silvery pale gray that won't go green or brown. The Benjamin Moore color of the year for 2019 is Metropolitan. It looks gorgeous in pictures—but, like Silver Chain, it's too dark for my rooms (registers as wet cement). I studied the BM paint deck and eliminated a lot of other popular grays: Classic Gray (too warm, pink?), Balboa Mist (too beige), Revere Pewter (too brown), Gray Owl (too green), Silver Half Dollar (too blue), Stonington and Conventry Gray (too dark). My 1939 bungalow is a quirky space with wide trim painted BM Super White, which required a neutral backdrop for a scheme of black/white/pops of color. My pick—BM Silver Satin OC-26—the results are FABULOUS! Good luck on your quest....See MoreWhich direction should my hardwood floors be installed?

Cherie, we hate forced hot air because it bothers my and the kids' asthma and allergies so I am actually very happy about these baseboard radiators as radiant heat is much easier on the lungs since it's not blowing hot air all over the place. There is central air for the summer months. We live in Northern NH... it gets cold here for sure. I am going to keep the tile in the kitchen for now and the rest will be new flooring *all going in the same direction* ! We are ripping out the red carpeting, which is in all four bedrooms as well as on the stairs. We want to replace that with flooring and we don't want yet another type of flooring in the house so it makes sense to do the living and dining room as well. When we reconfigure the kitchen, we'll have to match it up and remove the tile at that time....See More- 3 years ago
