In these allergy conscience times, carpet is one of the biggest known causes of house hold allergens. Pull it up and get it out of the room. Sometimes what you will find beneath is a hidden treasure. Some older homes that have beautiful terrazzo and wood floors were covered up in the 1970′s and 80′s with carpet because it was the bedroom or living room design trend astatine the time. If the floor is concrete underneath do non despair, there are several ways of making plain concrete fashionable for less.

Painting the Floor

Vacuum the concrete first, then mop with a clean mop head, using a solution of half vinegar and half water. Allow the floor to dry-using a couple of large high powered fans can speed this along. Choose a latex satin paint or semi-gloss enamel type paint. Apply concrete paint with a nap roller and long handle to save your back. Work from the back of the room towards the door. Cut in around kitchen and bathroom designs with a small angled paintbrush. Allow to dry thoroughly about 24 hours.
