Question from karen b
I am looking for a new apt because the waterproofing chemicals recently applied to my apt building are making me very sick. I have seen some nice apts but all have synthetic carpeting which will also make me sick. What is the best alternative I might use to replace the synthetic carpet at a new place? I have done a little research into linoleum and it seems to have an acrylic sealant (a no no) and also I have read that natural linoleum has strong fumes. Cork, I have read, contains binders in it such as formaldehyde and urea melamine. So I am looking for suggestion and ideas. Thank you.
Debra’s Answer
My preferred floorings are prefinished solid wood laid with yellow woodworker’s glue, ceramic tile, or stone.
