Room for improvement

Next up is replacing the flooring. I want waterproof, sound absorbent, cushioning, and durable. Don’t we all.

Long samples to really get the color in our context are a must: the first one I ordered we all went, that looks really good against the cabinetry. A little dark, though, and what’s with putting mini bubble wrap for an underlayer? How is that supposed to last?

The next arrived today. Doesn’t matter what shades the screen showed, those were an instant no straight across.

So of course there are now flooring ads every time I look at the computer. I clicked on a few. I even ordered a few more samples: having never heard of limestone composite flooring that looks like wood, well, we’ll see.

Michelle’s take was, Think how much harder that would be to fall on. Do you really want to do that?

One on the way uses a cork underlayer and will require a sheet of plastic beneath. At least it won’t pop when you move heavy furniture?

So when we show up at an actual store we’ll have some idea of things to ask.  Any experiences/opinions out there, I’d love to hear, thanks.

But the 31-year-old carpeting in a certain allergic someone’s room has got to go. We can’t fix everything but we can do something about that.
