So it started with the ole lady wanting new couches, now she wants new Carpet or wood floors. I bought the house about 16 years ago from a flipper and though the carpet was new I know it was the cheapest carpet and pad possible and when you walk you can feel it has no pad left to it, plus the wear and tear of a 9 year old, multiple cat/dogs/single men in their every early 20s and a tons of parties mixed with everyday life( not in that order). If you have hard wood in your whole house what do you like about it what don?t you like about it? We have wood( again from a flipper so cheapest possible) on the main level but Capet up and down. She wants wood with an area rug, which my point is wouldn?t that be carpet? What are your pros and cons of an all wood floor house?
