Carpet Opinions?

[Peabody]

If you decide on stained concrete, I can walk you through it.

here are the pics I promised, sorry it took me a little longer than expected.


Anyways, these really show the unique color and style, with variable coloration which looks really, really good in person.

Let me know what you think?

Your pics are way small. It looks really good though. What brand of stain did you use.

Thanks for the replies OSA. The stained concrete looks great and alot better than I envisioned. If we decide to go that route I will definitely get back to you guys. As of right now, my wife likes the frieze style carpet made by Karastan(Mohawk) and wood laminate around the french doors. My concrete sub will be starting the footing this morning so we still have plenty of time to decide.

We have most of our sub contractors lined up but still open to considerations on drywall, roofing and carpet installers.

Dang...the stained concrete does look sharp. I'm going to have to keep that in mind for my next house....years down the road.

If your having a new house built, try to get them to NOT nail the cleats for wall support 2X4 in the floor of the room/rooms that will be stained. Most of the time when the concrete nails are pulled they pull up concrete and then you have an are that needs to be filled and the stain looks a little discolored in the patch areas.
Who's your builder? I worked construction in Tulsa area for around 9 years.
Also let your concrete finishing guy know that the house slab is going to be stained concrete.

It would be cool if we knew someone that works in the wholesale carpet business. Could be useful. Oh well.
