Flooring choice for basement/tank area

[sphelps]

Price difference really depends, carpet isn't always cheaper depending on the type, same goes for hardwood. Engineered wood ranges from $2 to $12 plus install and carpet is usually starts at about $5 including install but can get much more expensive.

i just redid my basement and used a new product made by expresso. it is the same as engineered in the sense of being plank style but it is a vinyl instead of press board. there is a couple of different companies making vinyl flooring now, it is durable and i cant see why it wouldnt last a very long time.
i have installed laminate flooring and this expresso is far easier to install.

expresso is the brand? do you have a link? That sounds really smart.
