  • What is preferred, dark or light laminate?

    Based on our Realtor's recommendation, we decided to replace our carpet with wood laminate. Now we have to decide if we should go with dark or light colored. Our house is not very formal and our walls tend to be on the darker neutral side (light browns). Any thoughts? Dark or light? Thank you.

  • Re: Should we install laminate or carpet?

    Thank you Beth and Judy. We live in San Antonio. We've found that in our neighborhood and surrounding area that homes have both carpet and laminate. Is laminate seen as an upgrade or is carpet just as good?

  • Should we install laminate or carpet?

    We are selling our home (<$180,000) and need to replace our worn out carpet. We can replace the carpet with laminate for about $500 more, with us doing prep work, but want to know if it is worth it? If so, does name brand make a difference (e.g., is Pergo better?) (BTW - wood floors aren't an...

  • Do we replace carpet in connecting rooms?

    Before selling our home, our upstairs playroom/loft area carpet needs to be replaced (cleaning just isn't going to be good enough). Do we also need to replace the carpet in the 2 bedrooms that connect to the playroom? (The bedroom carpet is in good shape.) My concern is that home buyers will think...

  • Is Carpet or Vinyl Tiles Better in Bathroom?

    I’m trying to save costs on getting my home ready for sale. Right now there is carpet in the bathrooms, would it be better to keep it there or replace it with vinyl tiles?

  • Re: New Carpet Odor

    If you can manage to open some windows during the day to get some cross ventilation going it should help. I know that new carpet smell and it can border on ammonia in some cases. If you're in North Texas I just happened to be a house recently where a company from Richardson, TX came by and used a...

  • Re: Can we fix wrinkled carpet?

    Although I am not a carpet specialist from what you have photographed here the carpet appears to be well worn and possibly beyond repair with stretching. Buyers do not want allowances these day for new carpets and the hassle of having to install before they move in. A new carpet is buyer ready. Contact...

  • Can we fix wrinkled carpet?

    We have carpet that is wrinkled in the entry way to one of our bedrooms. Can this be fixed easily enough or are we better off replacing it? Thank you.
