Flooring for SFH Rental.
Any recommendations for small kitchen flooring area? Looking at tile vs. laminate wood flooring.
Thanks!

Just did the Lifeproof LVT from HD in our rental....went with the thicker version etc...$2.79 sq ft..... water proof and very sturdy. As stated above...yes you can score and "snap" it but its a huge PITA and will take a ton of time if you have a lot of cuts. I used a chop and table saw...way quicker.
If the area is small, tile would be a great choice too......
No way I would put laminate or carpet in a rental....
