Hi Kristyne! Carpet is actually a reservoir of filth, the pony is in there! Try to find out how the laminate stands up to water. I got a few samples and put them in storage for a couple of years. The under padding (for sound control?) came off of them but the laminate itself was ok. Of course, the kind I got isn't out any more. A quick way to do this is get a sample of each one you are considering and just soak them all over a weekend in a barrel or tub of water. Be sure to mark them with something waterproof. You might do the whole house in vinyl tile. That stands up to water quite well. -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
