UNKNOWN AND VERY IMPORTANT FACT FOR RENTAL PROPERTY
OWNERS:
Laminate flooring is the best investment
for Your rental property, because
it lasts on average 3-4 times longer than carpet (over 15Yrs in
rentals).
It does not need to be steam-cleaned or re-stretched, it's durable and it improves
overall appearance and quality of life.
Carpet is just a waste of
money!

for 1000SF home/condo/apartment:
Carpet: Average times to replace-
4. Laminate: Times to install- 1 Cost

Cost to clean- $100.00x15=1500.00 Cost to clean- $0.00x0=$0.00
Times to re-stretch- 5. Times to re-stretch- 0
Cost to re-stretch- $100.00x5=500. Cost to re-stretch- $0.00x0=$0.00
