Hi all, time has come around for me to get on with job ive been putting off for ages in my small flat. Going to take down wall between front room and kitchen to make open plan. My problem: old 70s flat and has parquet flooring which is in pretty good nick. Not my personal preference, but dont have the money to replace with anything decent that will outweigh the cost of removing the parquet. Kitchen tiles currently are terrible.
So do I: 1) continue parquet into the new kitchen space. This will obviously require sourcing and expert fitter to match up styles. Could be pricey im guessing! Ive also been told parquet in a kitchen area is bad idea due to risk of spills. or
2) use tiling which will i think affect that nice flow through appeal of same flooring, but I guess will allow kitchen area to be designated by the change in flooring.
If you think 2), any suggestions on a good match that wont totally clash with a mid to light parquet (busy square) pattern. Thanks so much in advance for any help!!
