| Question--for a basement bedroom and playroom/family room with fireplace in the basement carpet or tile? |
| Tile with large area rug. |
| We did cork floors and love it! We also put down an area rug. |
| Laminate/Vinyl that is water proof with area rugs. Tile is too hard and cold. |
| vinyl plank flooring |
| We did carpet. No regrets. Just make sure you get GOOD carpet (nylon, dense, high twist). Of course we have had no history of water damage, but if your basement is water prone I'd do vinyl plank flooring. |
| We also did vinyl plank flooring in our basement. |
