So I am buying a condo and while we don't have any furniture, I would like to redo the floor. I hate carpeting and I love hardwood flooring, so you know what I want to do. However, it is very very expensive. I was also looking into laminates, but surprisingly those are expensive as well.
Does anyone have any ideas? I have short(ish) ceilings, if that means anything for anyone. I would like to get all of the bedrooms and living spaces and kitchen done as well. Laminates make the most sense because they can handle the abuse and wetness of a kitchen best.
I was thinking something like this http://www.flooring.dupont.com/en/design/FG8240.shtml
or like this http://www.flooring.dupont.com/en/design/FG8020.shtml
Unfortunately it is about $72 per 20sq ft and I have about 900 sq ft to do.
Can you do part at a time? I have my brother in law moving near me and he is a self contracting floorer, so labor should be cheap
