Just remember a 3 things about floors before making a selection.
-Laminate floors will not raise the value of your house.
Yes it is true, laminate floors, no matter how good they look and how expensive the floors cost, will never raise the value of your house.
-Carpet, sheet vinyl or soft surface materials will not raise the value of your house.
And the same goes for carpet and sheet vinyl. As good as it may seem, carpet and sheet vinyl, or vinyl tile will not raise the value of your house.
-Hardwood floors, ceramic, porcelain, slate, travertine, limestone, or saltillo tile are the only flooring materials that will raise the value of your house.
