I'd like to re-do the floors in our home soon. What do you recommend? Hardwood only?
Discussion
We have cork.
Some of it depends on what you need the floors to do. Hardwood isn't great for radiant heat.
But, hardwood, stone, tile, or cork (but you need to figure out what adhesive is going to be used, as in many cases you can have a good material glued down with stuff that's full of rather bioactive compounds and that's not so good).
i prefer stone tile floors personally, actually i like stone everything, i would prefer to live in a house that has wood maybe for roofing, but probably metal framing, and floors made of stone or ceramic tiles, with modern materials all of this is relatively free of toxic plastics
Thanks so much for this. When I go shopping at a flooring company, what kind of adhesives should I tell them to use, or not use?
