[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much water do people actually get in their basements that it impacts flooring choices? I always read that basement flooring should be able to handle water, but we haven't ever had water in our basement, neither have my parents who have been in the same house for 30 years. [/quote] Doesn't take much water to destroy wood or carpeting, but carpeting is cheaper to replace. We have had carpet in our last two basements even though rest of the house is hard wood. I agree with your builder, it warms the floors, and space up and relatively inexpensive to replace. If you don't want carpet, I would look at vinyl. [/quote] I've been wondering this too. We've never had any water issues but any bids we receive seem to go on and on about water and flooring choices. [/quote]
