Vinyl vs Laminate flooring- Which one's the best bad choice?
Comments (18)I would say that it just depends. The best thing would be to talk to a realtor in your area as there are a lot of factors that can go into this. It depends on what level of house you have and the neighborhood it is in. Who would most likely purchase your house? If your house is higher end and would likely appeal to a family that is established and has a decent income, vinyl or laminate could both be a very poor choice. However, if your home is on the smaller side and most likely to appeal to a family just starting out, then either one could be acceptable....See Morefloors and paint, do they clash or match match?
Comments (12)@nuppal I still like the gray better… Especially in light of your countertops and the fireplace… And I looked up your color on Pinterest and I saw that color walls with different colored wood floors and I thought it looked nice. But as another poster said it’s all a personal preference. I personally don’t like beige walls so I guess I’m biased! Haha But the new house we’re building has wood floors and gray walls and is the Joanna Gaines type style… And its similar to yours and that we have the white quartz countertops with the gray marbling and I have white cabinets in my kitchen and white builtins in my living room. Most of our walls are gray… Different shades of gray (Mostly with blue undertones because that’s what I like)....See MoreHELP — Best Kitchen Cabinets for High Humidity — won't get Termites???
Comments (22)"most people would opt for AC." I've been to the Big Island in the summertime and I absolutely loved the way our open air house felt. I commend you for sticking with that! unfortunately so many people default to AC because it has become so affordable, and tend to use it more than necessary. so many builders are not designing homes to maximize what their area has to offer. less emphasis on thick walls, insulation and shade. favoring the more popular dark roof colors and giant south facing windows, and finishes that can't handle it. then people have to crank their HVAC to make up for it. terrible for the environment, sadly. (sorry I don't have a cabinet to recommend, but I'm just so glad you like your open air house. they're nice!)...See MoreHelp with kitchen backsplash ideas that don't clash with new floor
Comments (240)What a charming house! You've done great. I had somehow missed this thread up to this point, and I did not read all (or even a significant fraction) of the previous responses. I have a 1910 house and also don't like subway tile. But I wanted something that fit the era of the house. I ended up going with a simple (and extremely cheap) 4x4 white field tile capped with a contoured molding tile (that almost but doesn't quite match the field tile because I couldn't find a molding I like from the a manufacturer that did a 4x4 field tile that was 4x4 rather than 4.25 x 4.25. Adds to the charm). I have very few uppers, though. I think a 4x4 white (or gray, since you seem to think white is too stark) field tile with black or charcoal pencil liner would be cool. These all show a pencil liner with subway because that's what the popular kids are doing, but it would work as well with a 4x4 or other basic field tile....See MoreHU-139571334
