"Warm" but healthy/environmentally friendly flooring?
We're restoring a 1910 home and as a large part of that are putting and
office and a bedroom in the basement. My wife wants to make sure the floors down there aren't cold and says we need to go either cork or carpet. I see cork as having problems after office chair casters have worked on it for a while. I see carpet as having unhealthy offgassing (outgassing? whatever ... you know what I mean). Any opinions or suggestions? The main and top floors are fir so we're simply refinishing them. TIA - R. |

I wouldn't go with either but you might want to do carpet tiles since they can be easily removed and replaced if your basement floods. |
