Hate my new flooring which costs me £3.5k

[freesoul12]

I dont know what I want from this post . I chose the flooring from sample and now its laid in 70 percent of the floor. It looks fine at night with lights on but looks greenish tone in the morning. I am so upset with myself not making the right choice . it is LVT. Fitter is coming on Monday to finish the job. Still got £1700 flooring left in garage which can be returned.
I am thinking of just cut losses and return the rest of it then I thought I ll keep it for couple of years and then change it. I cant make a choice and on top of it have not discussed with hubby yet . please help me how can i make a decision as I am all over the place with my emotions.

just a (no idea if plausibe)- but if "tinge"bes from natural daylight-is window tint an option?

I really like it, sorry! We have lvt, but slightly textured so the dogs don’t slip. Total pita to clean til I bought a vax machine.

I had a similar Colour throughout the downstairs of my last house which was massive I bloody loved it I had white walls and duck blue curtains and everyone coming in loved it and said how bright and light and gorgeous it was x

It looks fine in your photos can't see any green tint but why has it cost £3.5k that seems ridiculously expensive unless you've got a massive house and have had it in every room. is it laminate or solid wood?

It's LVT.

Lvt is just like Amtico or Karndean. It looks like real wood but is a sort of laminate. Useful in that it’s sealed, so it doesn’t matter if you spill stuff on it and doesn’t stain/scratch like real wood.

I had something called Karndene put down in my bathroom. It looks a lot like your photo. It's horrible but I resent wasting money so we put up with it.

@ninadefoe your comparison with the colour charts was genius. What a great idea.

@GandTfortea

I’ve got Lino identical to that ,cost a few hundred . Why so much

That's like saying 'I have a plastic bag that cost 10p with my groceries, why is a Gucci bag so much'

Get rid now. It’s pointless having it down if you hate it. I would cut your losses.

When you're choosing paint, please talk to the paint salesperson instead of winging it. They will be able to tell you about undertones.

I had same problem! White the room was empty hated it grey green tinge! Once everything was in it was grey and I love it! I think the other colours bring it in and I was white and grey with some natural wood xx

Doesn’t look green but definitely doesn’t look worth 3k more like £500

It's really nice @freesoul12 And no, it doesn't have a greenish tinge.

I agree with other posters though, that it's ludicrously expensive.

Try the new paint on the walls and put your furniture in, you'll probably find it works better for you.
At least you have all the same batch number, we inherited similar flooring when we bought the house but it's badly laid and different batch numbers so although, strictly speaking, the same colour; some have a warmer tinge, some have a green tinge - it sends me round the twist when I notice it but day to day, I don't have time to notice it it doesn't bother me!

Without knowing how big OPs home is, and how many rooms are being done, how do posters know that it's expensive?

If you can adore to write it off, then write it off but don't fake boast about being 'so upset' about it.

'Afford' apols for typo.

Flooring is expensive. Just saying. OP. if you don't like it and you can change it then change it. I like it and have something similar but you have to live with it in your house so up to you.

This looks like the exact flooring I have. It's lovely and not greenish at all!

I dunno what lvt is?

I think it’s lovely . All those saying it’s expensive etc you have no idea of quality or the size of the room .
It will be nicer to walk on than Lino .

Think it looks nice, but being trained in textiles and fabric dyeing i can definitely see the green tint!
Changing the wall colours to try and neutralize it is your best option.

It looks fab, honestly once your furniture is back in situ, neutralising soft furnishings, change of wall colour (no expert but I'd go for a green based light grayish colour or a chinoise/teal) you won't even notice it. Let us know how you get on x

I think it looks lovely, something I would choose myself.
