Is the office yours? If not when you paint the floor, the owner may ask you make it back original (reinstate) when you quit renting the office, than you will have problem.

Now the easy is use 2x2 carpets.

If you prepare to pay the extra than you do it loh. Or get the owner agree or sign a document. You can get sue for not reinstate to the condition under the contract.

Carpet won't be smelly if you vacuum frequent.
