I have the Home Depot Lifeproof LPV being put down now. It is a beautiful chevron design in light color wood grain. We are half way though and I want to rip it out. It looks gorgeous and that is the only good thing. The fake wood grooves hold dust and grit. I vacuumed, swept, swiffered mopped and mopped again and finally on hands and knees washed and dried the floor and if you run a hand over it there is still dust and grit. Also, I kept hearing about the good sound quality in a room compared to other hard floors and that it was not as cold as tile. BS on that too. I gave the installers a day off on a Friday hoping I would feel better about it in a few days. Nope. I feel like a fool. I spent almost $10,000 and even though it is gorgeous, I hate how cold it is and the grit just will not go away. I am in such a quandary. It was very difficult to prep the house for the installation. While it would be financially foolish, it may be better to ditch it now. Very said here in Colorado.

We had planned to install the Coretec Grande Lotte Oak; however have ultimately chosen another color. I have approx 1,500 sq ft available for sale -- willing to offer deeply discounted pricing. We are located in WI but can ship. Pls contact me at jwire@tds.net if interested.

The color in my kitchen is BM Prentis Cream. Currently, my living room and dining g room are shades of yellow but I would like to change them to blues or greens. My hallway is small and relatively narrow. I have a coretec lvp flooring in gold coast acacia. These are some colors that I was considering. I am open to suggestions. The railing color will be changing to a neutral brown.

you mean you have no idea what they used? You need to find out or no one is going to be able to help you. have the crew guy text you a picture of what was used. and the white oak treads were left natural? nothing was applied to them? Did you tell the crew you wanted the wood to match the floor? at any time were you told of what was to be used? Did they warn you it might darken? what does your contract say? So many questions that we can't answer. A sealer is always going to alter the tone of natural wood unless you specifically usse a product that does not ! Bona has a oil finish that lets the natural wood stay as is. If the crew just slapped on a regular poly wood floor sealer, then what you have is exactly what happens. wood absorbs. if you coated the wood w/water it would also darken like that.
