| Is carpeting in kitchen legal? Seems like a fire hazard. http://www.redfin.com/VA/Arlington/2600-1st-Rd-S-22204/home/11262043 |

In the early 1970s my parents bought a house with carpet in the kitchen. Fire was never an issue but water(liquid) was! I have vivid memories of that disgusting carpeting before they remodeled the kitchen. Excuse me while I go throw up.
Carpet in the kitchen is only illegal in the practically sense. I would pass on this house one this one factor. |
| I don't know if it's a fire hazard. But it doesn't strike me as particularly sanitary. |

| It is legal, but unethical. |
"Unethical"? Really? |
| What the heck is their agent thinking? And look at all the plastic on top of all the carpets. Looks like new carpet too - of you're prepping to sell you tell them to put down tile, wood, or laminate. |
Yes, unethical. It may not break Arlington law; it may not even break Virginia law: but it breaks God's law, and, more important, it violates Murphy's Law. |
| I like the floor tile backsplash. |
| That is weird. There is tile in one of the bathrooms too right? |
Yes and carpet, too! |
| Wow, they sure believe in angling the furniture, don't they?! And holy additions, Batman. |
| WTF? Is this place a flip? Looks like they got a good deal on the same ugly carpet and put it EVERYWHERE. Who the hell puts carpet in the kitchen and bathroom? Cheap linoleum is a better option. |
Ha, I meant to say carpet So strange.
|
| Yuck. I would worry that there is something wrong with the floor under the carpeting. |
