A client in Mill Woods insisted on a specific vinyl plank and now I'm torn on sticking to specs versus pushing back on bad choices.

I was installing a grey wood-look plank in a basement with almost no natural light, and the finished room felt like a concrete bunker, which has me debating if our job is just to install what's bought or to warn people about design flaws that hurt resale.

Man, you gotta speak up. That's part of the job, saving people from their own bad ideas that they'll hate later. A quick warning shows you care more than just getting paid.

Yeah, that's a good point from @miles_grant35. It's tough to say something in the moment, but you're right... it's the kind thing to do.
