| Well i finally made the gooseneck purchase and will be having a friend who does apartments and townhomes finish it for me. However, I saw this trailer with a rubbery type feeling floor but it looks like wood. It was fairly squishy and not slick. I have no idea what it was but I want it in my trailer.
My brother in law who's done tiling for 15+ years hasnt heard of it and google is failing me. Anyone know what im talking about?
Also any pics you have of a small living quarters setup, post here. I need all the help i can get. Pros, cons, etc.

| It might be linoleum. My parents put linoleum down in our cabin and it looks just like wood, is kind of rubbery, and honestly looks great. |

Location: Finally horseback again.... | It is a PVC / vinyl type material that we used in my mom's house.
It has a 50 year warranty and if something greases it, all you have to do is set a warm iron on it and returns back to normal. Very good product.
We got hers at Flooring America.
I will see if I can find the name of the brand. |

That is great to hear! Of course we didnt get the name of the flooring because frankly I didnt even notice it was different until my friend pointed it out. Do you know if its expensive?
I am now looking at the cork flooring as I think that is interesting. |

Location: not settling | My parents have industrial linoleum in their kitchen/dining room- it feels squishy when you walk on it and looks like barn wood. Came with a 20 yr warranty and was super easy to install (came on a roll).

| Yes, it's probably wood-look linoleum which is becoming very popular. |

| Dont laugh at my lack of understand but linoleum is that stick down tile?? used in a lot of bathrooms or kitchens thats fairly cheap (my parents house had it when they moved in). This wasnt anything like this unless I just havent seen enough of it. This had substance and texture to it. It literally felt almost like a mat material?

Lino comes in rolls that are normally 12' wide by whatever length you need and it should be glued down, the quality can vary greatly. |
