Tile question

[HarleyDog]

Since we have received the estimate, we are now looking into laminate or bamboo.

This may just be my own personal tastes, but I think tile is for bathroom/kitchen.  I think the laminate/wood/bamboo would look better in the family and living rooms.

The tile in question looked like wood. However, we are pleased with what we have seeen with the laminate so far.

Hey Sunset, got a question for you:

So I am about to begin painting my newly tiled bathroom. First thing I need to fill in dry wall holes. I have filled in small holes before (where screws were in, etc) but there was about a 1/4 inch gap between my tiled shower and the drywall. I had to cut the drywall and install backer board on the wall, hence the gap. Do you think it's OK to just fill the gap with joint compound, sand it, and then just paint over it? I

I just laid the wood tile in my bathroom. It looks really cool !
