Vinyl Flooring Best For Pets?
We have animals that spit up, etc. on our carpeting regularly;
therefore, we are planning to replace the carpet throughout our house with a pet-friendly flooring. Our pets spit up, etc while we are at work so it is often several hours before the material can be wiped up. Seems like good-quality sheet vinyl with a wood-grain pattern would be our best option as ceramic tile or laminate flooring has seams. Seams would allow the pet spit-up, etc. to soak in the cracks. Any suggestions or ideas? |

Any suggestions or ideas? I too would hate it throughout the house. BUT - If you must ANY sheet goods will do what you want. Not the tiles. Better quality will last longer, not tear or discolor. Why not the tiles? Banty -- |

Why not the tiles? Banty Too many seams for liquids to potentially leak through. -- Wayne Boatwright __________________________________________________ 'Confusion not only reigns, it pours' |
