Flooring for playroom?

12 years ago

Looking for advice on what type of flooring to install on room we are turning into a playroom. Considering all options including hard surface or carpet. Things to consider are:

- will be high traffic area bc it is the point of entry from garage to inside of house, and there is also a separate door that leads to covered patio
- we have a dog
- don't want bright color/"kid" looking floor, so it is more versatile when we sell in ~ 5 yr or so

Consider carpet tiles. Individual squares can be swapped out if they get too stained. You can relax a bit and not be overly concerned about the children's spills or the the dog's muddy feet. There is a company called Flor that manufactures these. You can view some ideas on their website. Good luck.

That Armstrong product is great. Several brands out there too. Luxury vinyl plank or tile. Has great looks and very very durable. We have it in our kids playroom here at our showroom for 5 yrs now and it still looks new. For different design options look at Mannington Adura, Shaw or US Floors Coretec XL.

You should also check out Armstrong Luxe and Luxe with FasTak...sooo easy to install and looks great! They are more like wood planks long and narrow vs. the Alterna tile which replicates stone and ceramic tile looks.
