Quote:he ended up saving us about 25k from the builders price on the hardwood.

That isnt hard, just dont go with the option of having the builder put in the flooring :P

I almost leaped and punched out the lady when she told me the prices for a hardwood flooring upgrade.

Its criminal and even worse, people pay it without questioning it. :blink:

hahaha, youre telling me.

My moms house in brantford was like 274,000 when she bought it.

for the cheap hardwood, the builder wanted 37,500... Some of the options at that time were insane! they had some random tile that was 80.00 per sq/ft....

Come to think of it, the most i would do in a basment would be floating floor.

Tile seems to be the best option, because if that basment ever floods kiss the wood or carpet goodbye...
