What type of flooring is best for dogs, cats, and other pets?

• <div><p>Luxury <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/luxury-vinyl-flooring-good-choice-pets.htm">vinyl flooring is the best for pet owners</a>, as it holds up well against scratches and accidents. Non-slip stone or porcelain tile are great options as well. Each of these also provide a less slippery surface for pups that like to run around.</p><p>As for the flooring options to avoid, these are hardwood, laminate, and carpeting. Claws can scratch hardwood and tear up carpeting. On top of that, removing dog urine from hardwood floors can be difficult; likewise with carpeting. Laminate holds up much better, but it’s super slippery (especially for dogs).</p></div>

Q: How many years does good carpet last?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">Carpet lasts</a> between five and 15 years. However, your carpet's life span will depend on several factors, such as its type, cushion, and the amount of foot traffic it receives. After 10 years, most carpet will show some signs of wear and tear, which might include fading, wrinkling, and loss of texture.</p></div>

Q: Can furniture sliders be used on carpet?

• <div><p>Yes, in most cases, you can use furniture sliders on carpeting. However, it&rsquo;s best to seek out furniture sliders that are specifically meant for carpeting, or a larger size of slider that the furniture won&rsquo;t slip off of as easily. Many varieties of furniture sliders are versatile enough to use on carpeting, hardwood, or tile floors. </p></div>

Q: Does a root cellar need a dirt floor?

• <div><p>Some root cellars are made with concrete, but a dirt floor may be better for your crops' longevity. Dirt can help maintain an appropriate temperature and humidity level, while the concrete might suck up all the moisture. Dirt floors can also bring down the overall cost of your root cellar. But, if you&rsquo;re going with a dirt floor, make sure you properly insulate between your house and the root cellar.</p></div>

Q: Do you start tiling in a corner?

• <div><p>Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.</p></div>

He was very efficient, he did a good job in everything he did. I would recommend him. His work was excellent but his estimate was a little lower than his pricing, but that is how it goes.
