Good evening
After 23 years, my rental apartment was renovated: the walls were painted and the carpets were removed! The carpet in the bedroom was replaced with laminate flooring, and in the kitchen, hallway, entrance, and stairs with green Marmorette linoleum.
This linoleum is now causing me headaches! It was such a shock when I saw it because, unfortunately, I was not consulted about the color choice. I find the color unacceptable and it does not fit the house. Keep in mind that this is a wooden apartment; some rooms have dark brown wood paneling, and the kitchen is made of light brown wood.
Is there a way to cover this linoleum with laminate flooring? Or do you have any other ideas on what I can do?
I am completely upset and confused.
Thank you very much for your advice
Best regards
