A great new wood / tile flooring product. Perfect for RVs.

[Alan]

I just found a new flooring that is exactly what i've been looking for
for my Bird. I am getting ready to do some remodeling. For the
kitchen area i had decided to go with either a wood or a marble.
...But I didn't really want to use real wood or marble because of the
thicknesses and weights involved. But on the other hand i don't like
most of the fake woods or linoleum looks (at least for a higher end
look).

While at a Corner Bakery here in North Dallas last week (it was being
remodeled), i kept noticing the floor. It looked very much like wood,
but I wasn't sure and i didn't think they would put in real wood. The
edges of each plank were beveled and there were no seams like in a
linoleum type product. So today i went to the Home Depot Flooring
Store and discovered a new (at least i had never seen it) product
called Amtico. http://www.amtico.com It's not cheap, about $5/sf. But then
i don't need a lot of it. They have some that look like woods.
Others look like marble or tile. Best looking product i've seen. For
"wood", it is sold in planks. Tiles are tile-size pieces. They also
have decor pieces.

Take a look if you're thinking about doing new floors.

I'll also be replacing carpet. Any secrets you guys have discoved
about doing that or choosing carpets that I need to know?

Thanks,
