Flooring Question - Hardwoord, Bamboo, Laminate, Carpet???

[andsoitgoes]

OKay - so we finally signed our lives (and a lot of money away!!) on our new house.

The thing is the people there are HEAVY smokers, we knew this going into it and is why we got it for a reasonable price.

So - that said, we're doing some heavy painting and also redoing ALL the flooring. Unfortunately not all the flooring NEEDS to be done, but all the smoke in everything, anything soft is coming up and GOING.

I'm just wondering if anyone has sources/information/assistance for doing any of the above floors? We're thinking of turfing (hah) carpet completely and doing a type of wood.

We have cheap laminate in the place where we currently rent and it's a flippin' disaster. You BREATHE on it and it scrapes, scratches, etc. I don't want that in our new place, but I also don't want to have to muddle around with oiling this and that to keep things clean.

Can someone help me, please???

Thanks!
