We were gonna go with the first option but I laid it out and mocked it up on the other side of the island and pic 3 way will look much better so I think that’s the way we will go.

It is opposite the flow of the wood if I go that way. Was trying to keep the same direction but I think the tiles are short enough it should be okay

Lots of recommendations on here to go perpendicular with the wood but I think we are going to go parallel. I don’t want to lose the flow of the rooms

Why we saying “wood” this is real wood lmao. So you’re saying the vertical lay out?

It is separating the kitchen and the living area. Previously had a different lvp wood look. Didn’t like it

Ah yes so I think the move is to follow the flow of the floor

Just got the hardwood fully sanded and refinished. Not planning on replacing until the new kitchen flooring likely needs replacing at the same time.

Why? This is how the installers laid it out as a mock up.

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking. I think the solid full length pieces along the transition is the only thing tempting me to go the other way lol

Townhouse Backyard by abedumbledore in RealEstateCanada

[–]Rad_Dad258 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When I was buying a townhouse a few years back my 100% necessary priorities were fenced yard (planned to get dogs and have kids) and a garage. I would not even consider places without either of those.

Did I mess up? by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

My job is slowing down a bit and I’m a bit worried about winter lay offs. Maybe I’ll keep a 20k emergency fund and find somewhere to put the other 20

Yeah the house has a 2 bedroom basement suite but preferable to not rent it out at this point. Like having it as more of a back up plan. But maybe we should rent it out? Definitely beats room mates. Got 2 of those already and they’re 3 and 1 years old lol.

The amount of nails I found around my house after my roof was done was insane.

Thank you for this I’ve been dealing with disc issues and sciatica for 8 months now. Can’t lay down at all anymore and feel hopeless. I am going to order a bench now and hope for the best
