Thinking outside the box

It is always nice when people come in with wonderful ideas that you never even thought of doing!
Carpet inlays we do with hardwood flooring, but could we do them with coretec? The answer is yes. Coretec is a LVT/ LVP product that has a water proof core and a water resistant top.  This is a wonderful floor to put everywhere (except a RV - we can go into that later on another post).
 Coolest pallet wall ever!! 



They put the same carpet in the bedrooms that they did in the inset.  This inset made it so that they had a nice comfortable 'rug' that they dont have to worry about it moving around!
I LOVE what the did with the flooring that they picked out! It was perfectly designed to fit into their home the way that they wanted it to!!!
Thank you, Thank you for sharing your pictures with us!!

Cleaning Tip ~ tid bit~

Cleaning is only fun to do when after you are finished cleaning, you feel accomplished.  What you cleaned looks A-M-A-zing!  Believe it or not, I feel this same way.  Being that we have posted LOTS of things on the LVT/ LVP I just wanted to share some secret things that we have discovered in our cleaning ventures.  
A bit of a back story for you...
So there I was ( that is how great stories start) at work sitting at the desk probably writing emails, or sending bids and it is time to clean the new-er floors.  This is something of interest to us being that when we installed our flooring they told us that with the rolling office chairs the floor was not warranted.  Being the dirt and other things get into the rollers and grind into our floor, it is really hard on the finish that is on the LTP.  I got on my hands and knees and I scrubbed and wiped.  After the floor was clean, I stood up to look at the final product. TA DA... looked a little more dual than I was hoping.  
Later that week I was doing some cleaning and I found an old vinyl cleaning friend that I had forgotten about.  Being that LVP/ LVT is in fact a vinyl product LVT ( luxury vinyl tile)/ LVP (luxury vinyl plank)... VINYL! Shine keeper was something that would bring back the SHINE believe it or not.  
So this is what the shine keeper looks like! It is made by Armstrong.  
Miracle worker!
The next picture is of the floor.
The top is the floor that I have washed and dried.  The bottom is the floor that I used the shine keeper on.

The picture was taken on the same day just after the product dried.  
super SHINY!
