We are finishing our very dry basement and would love to put down wall to wall carpet, but we worry about potential flooding in the future (we've lived in the house only 4 years). The floor is covered in old vinyl tile. I'm leaning against the modular carpet squares for aesthetic reasons. I am wondering if it is possible to install a carpet and pad with minimal tacking and glueing so that it could be removed if necessary? Or can we purchase the carpet and have it cut to fit and edges bound so that it is like a giant area rug?
