Howdy!
My father-in-law is currently living in a house where the carpeting is, no joke, the same carpeting from the 70s. We have been talking about replacing the flooring for years, but either haven't had it in the budget or, just haven't gotten around to it. Well, we noticed some laminate flooring come up for .60 cents a square foot and I'm almost ready to buy! The 2 options are floating-floor/easy click installation http://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/c/Ebb-Tide-Oak-Dream-Home-7ETO/10041610 or peel-and-stick: http://www.lumberliquidators.com/ll/c/Mount-Craig-Cherry-LVP-Tranquility-2MO-KC/10039530
Does anyone have any advice on which is "better"? The subfloor isn't perfectly even, but we'd prefer to do laminate over installing new carpet because FIL's "girlfriend" dogs come over and will "mark" spots on the carpet, and it's hard to stay on top of cleaning it. Any problems from either or (floating/peel-n-stick)? I prefer the look of the peel-and-stick, but if floating is better, we could certainly make it work!
Thanks in advance!
