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

[digital-audiophile]

It all depends on how much money you want to spend I guess? We had the same kind os situation when we moved into this house last year. Lost of ethnic food smells in the carpet and stained ceilings and layers of grease on the cabinets in the kitchen. Man it was nasty to clean up!


Anyhow we repainted from top to bottom and had the ceilings sprayed. We went with a hardwood called tiger wood, we did the entire main floor and the stairs, we still have the carpet on the upper level but will change it out in the next year or two money allowing.

My suggestion would to go with hardwood, it will last a lifetime and will do nothing but increase the value of your home.
