Basement Finishing and Family Space Project

Carpeting the Basement Video

Bob explains that the carpeting pattern in the basement may look like wall-to-wall carpeting, but actually it is Binvetec carpet tiles. Instead of being made up long rolls, the tiles are non-adhesive squares. The pattern on the tiles is designed so that any way the tile is laid, a pattern is created. The system is flexible to allow freedom for creative design.
