Hi! We are starting to emerge from the depths of despair into the light of hope.
Anybody have an opinion about using a laminate flooring? We have such a tight budget to finish the house that we can't even afford carpet, so I found a deal on a 7mm "hardwood" laminate flooring that I like. The catch is that I have to lay the stuff myself. It is $1.13 per square foot and is quite attractive. We're going to put a vinyl flooring on the basement level, and it will become a 'slip' floor for a future hardwood floor there. Can't put hardwood directly on top of concrete, and it would be a warmer floor than using tile or stone. For the kitchen, it looks like I'm going to be assembling IKEA cabinets. We can't afford the custom cabinets that were originally in the spec anymore. Or the new appliances. And the granite counters are giving way to IKEA's oak butcher block at 1/10 of the cost. The good news is that it appears we will actually be able to finish the house. There's got to be a pony in there somewhere... For those that know the joke.
