Depreciate or Expense?

Daycare client installed new hardwood flooring with a cost of $4700 in rooms use by both family and daycare kids. Because the flooring is an improvement, is depreciation the only option?  

Your assistance is appreciated.

If the total flooring that was replaced was 1/3 or less of the total flooring of the house, deduct it.

If it was more than 1/3, I would lean towards depreciating it.
