Floor question

We have been redoing our rooms one by one throughout our rental house. My question is about the floors. So far we have chosen a different vinyl floor for every bedroom. We want to tie it all together now. So we have the kitchen, dining room, laundry room and the hallway left. Do you think we should use the same floors throughout now? You will be able to see all the remaining floors touching each other in the hallway.

That's a great question! You want the floors to "flow" but who wants the same floor throughout the house? Are you using a waterproof floor? I would for the kitchen and laundry room. Let us know what you decide when you have it all picked out.

You know those those aluminum strips that are used on floors at the entryway location between one room and other? They are typically used with carpeted rooms, but can also be used over any floor covering. (And for the life of me, I cannot remember what they are called)

With tile or hardwood those strips can aesthetically add to the "flow" from one room to another.

We do have transition pieces throughout the house. I would use them still but I think they need to go together still. I have nice wooden ones in between the bedrooms and living room. I don't like the look of the metal pieces.

Using the same Laminate Vinyl Floors throughout the remaining spaces is a great idea to create a cohesive look. Since the hallway connects to all the rooms, having the same flooring in the kitchen, dining room, laundry room, and hallway will tie everything together nicely. Ensure that you choose a quality floor underlayment for laminate to improve comfort, reduce noise, and provide stability. This approach will give your home a more unified and polished feel, enhancing the overall design.
