New laminate

Lindsey · 12-14-2009, 12:52 PM

I've had this done for a couple of weeks already but never got around to uploading the photos! Here is the before and after of my new floor

I love it!

Wow Lindsey your new floor looks great! I love the color..not too dark and not too light. Great choice

Lindsey · 12-14-2009, 01:05 PM

Thank you Paula! My uncle who helped install it told me "You picked a really good color because it goes so nicely with all the wall colors" and I said "I just picked the cheapest laminate I could find, for 97 cents per square foot. I guess I got lucky on the color!"
It really looks amazing in my "red room" but it's packed full of tools and furniture right now. I'll take pictures of that later! I'm excited to get it in the spare room in the next couple of days!

What a difference!!! Your floor is just beautiful, and the color IS perfect!! Your home is really coming together. I'm glad your parents are coming to stay with you for Christmas...everything will be so beautiful

Love the color! Good job! Your home is really coming together well.

It's just beautiful Linds! You did a great job too. That's the color I want. How is it to clean? I love the way it looks like real wood.

The floor is fabulous, Lindsay!!! It looks a lot like mine which is a real wood floor! Yours is a tiny bit darker than mine and I really like it! Whomever installed it did a GREAT job! You will just love it!

Now you know I have to add my 2 cents worth....lolol. It really is beautiful Lindsey. I'm wanting something similiar so bad. I hope you post pictures when you have all your furniture in and everything in place. It's the perfect color....beautiful.

Thanks everyone!
Judy - I haven't really cleaned it yet, but when I do I'll let you know! Layla's paw prints are pretty noticeable right by the sliding glass doors where she goes in and out. They really stick out when the sun is shining in on the floor. I'm sure I can just use a damp cloth in that area a couple times a week though. We've still got so much junk around and so much left to do that it's not really worth it to clean when it will just get dirty again anyway!

Maybe you can put a mat or something absorbent over there. My dogs would pee on it, but maybe Layla won't. Even if she does, get a few washable mats and maybe the paw prints won't show.
