Hardwood flooring would give you the best resale for the money, but is expensive. Hardwood could run anywhere from 3 to 10 dollars per square foot. If it is scratched, it can be sanded and redone later on. Engineered is a hardwood floor, but cannot be refinished in case something happens. Also costs around 2.5 to 4 dollars square foot. Laminate looks a little cheaper, but will hold up better than hardwood or Engineered in the long run. I would suggest the Pergo 30 year warranty. Hardwood has to be nailed down to the floor, Engineered has to be tacked or glued down and laminate is free floating. In the case of the hardwood and engineered, you would have to pull up the ceramic tile. With laminate, you MAY not have to do that. Laminate in stock should cost around 2 to 4 dollars a square foot. A lot of laminate floors now look like the real thing. I suggest you do some window shopping to find out for yourself.

It might, and it will roll a little too easily. Contact a couple of local, independant office furniture dealers and ask if they have or can source some soft tyre castors. If so pull one out of the bottom of your chair and take it to them to be sure it fits. This will reduce the noise, stop you scooshing across the floor and preserve your floor.

Depends on the quality of your laminate. Cheap product will damage easy, The grove will break or crack. Better and best quality will hold up to 4000 lb per sq inch.

I would go to Walmart and buy a computer rubber pad that will fit up under the desk and your chair. It is easier to slide around and not ruin your floor.

if the chair has wheels then it shouldn't damage the floor, the only thing that might is furniture that has no protection on the legs where it is raw metal.

It could, by the weight of the person, and the wheels always in the same position...

it will destroy it so you have to use the special plastic sheet or use special little casters to ensure you dont scratch the finish..
