| New Tile | Sign In/Join |
Hi. first post and i need help. Our computer room carpet was gross so we took it out. We were hoping to match the tile up in the room with the tile in the rest of the house. Unfortunately, the tile can't be found anywhere. Should we A) tile with different color B)Wood laminate C)New Carpet. We're not sure what would be better for the house when we sale it. | |||

I'm not a fan of tile anywhere other than a bathroom but a lot would depend on location. If I were in Florida or anywhere near a sandy beach I might opt for tile. If I were in a hotter climate (TX, AZ, NM, So CA, NV)I might opt for tile. That said, I'd go for a contrasting but complimenting tile or possibly laminate or hardwoods. If you're going to use this room as a computer room and have a chair on wheels I'd opt for a very low pile carpet if I went the carpet route.

Tile is pretty common there. If there is a door to the room I would go with a different color of tile. Don't try to get close to the existing tile color/style it will always look wrong.
