Just a comment on cold floors--if it's over a basement, stick a four-
tube fluorescent light on the ceiling in the basement--it will give you
a lot of light in the basement and makes a surprising warm spot on the
floor above. Or just put in a section of heated floor, which doesn't
have to be horribly expensive if you have hydronic already.

That's the Asian (and Hawaiian) way. If you had to sweep your floor
with a tree branch, you'd have a different attitude about someone
tracking dirt into your home too.

OTOH, The woman once drove off a road into a river during a storm. The
car was partially submerged and she grabbed her infant daughter and
climbed up the high embankment up to the road. That was pretty amazing.
They went back down to the river when the cops came and while they were
standing there, another car drove off the road and flew over their
heads, landing in the river. That couple in that car got swept away and
drowned. She said it looked like the car was moving in slow motion and
she saw the bottom of the car clearly. Cool. :-)

If you install flooring that can't handle normal traffic, that is your
poor decision, not mine. If you feel that a floor finish should last 50
years without maintenance that is your delusion.


If I was invited to your house and found you had such a goofy fetish,
I'd not be looking for an invite back.


LOL...You would not be getting an invite back :-)

i have the location down and i was struggling with one or two bowls, i have
decided on one sink that will hold a half sheet pan flat to soak, truth is
most everything we use is d/w safe or really big, so one sink that i can do
the larger pans in is what seems to be the best choice, if for some strange
reason i have to wash smaller items by hands i can get a dishpan for that
purpose, and that would be a few times a year when i use the good china, Lee

Are polyurethane finishes still legal? An oak floor, finished with
a dark-brown stain then coated with polyurethane, will not show significant
damage from cat events. Should last many years and still look good.

At the opposite end of the spectrum is wood-composite or Pergo in
a blonde finish. It will look ratty pretty fast, cats or no cats.

Just a suggestion, but look into a downdraft cooktop (Jenn-Air for
example). They work far better than you would expect. And that leaves
the space above clear for lighting. On the other hand they use up a
good deal of space in the cabinets below.

I'm surprised at the price on the repair parts though--that sounds very
high for what you're describing.
