We got all the binds up on the windows. Gotta love LOWES - they went up in about 10 minutes for each one!Chat Icon

Empire Carpet came yesterday to install the wall to wall carpet in 2 BRs, the stairway and upstairs hallway and the LR.Took them 4-5 hours to install, and it's so soft and beautiful looking!!!

There is still a lot of wood floors around in the DR and the other 2 bedrooms.

I honestly wanted throw rugs, but after careful inspection and the cost for what I wanted in a rug, it just wasn't cost effective.

And I love my husband to pieces, but he's a musician, and he has drums and other equipment that will be carried up and down those stairs - or dragged is more like it - I would rather have carpet destroyed, than hard wood floors.

The other issue - the oiriginal owner's had water damage in the MB and the floor boards, although polished were not in good shape, and we don't have the $$$ to redo the floors in the bedrooms yet, so this will work in the meantime.

Why did you cover those beautiful floors?

Anyway.....The carpet looks soft and comfy.

One thing I would of had them done was to put down the metal strip inbetween the grey carpet and the beige carpet.....Where the bedroom and the hallway.

Look at my above post for reasoning for carpet.

As for the strip - the door wouldn't shut with that there, but we prefer it without it.

It's all about personal taste with everyone.

looks great and I def agree that you would rather have the carpets take the beating than the floors

You're carpet looks great! I also prefer carpet in the bedrooms - I think it gives the room a warmer feel to it!
