WHAT’S HOT IN TILE FLOORING?Porcelain tile
While many people immediately associate porcelain with figurines and toilets, porcelain can be found in other places around the home, as well. On shower walls, countertops, and bathrooms. But where it really shines is on the floor.
Porcelain comes in a variety of sizes, colors and finishes. Want the sophistication of marble tiles, but don't want to break the bank? Porcelain floor tile looks great when it is put down and will look good for years to come with very little maintenance. In high traffic areas, porcelain floor tile is an excellent choice and will out perform other tiles in both long-term appearance and durability. Some porcelain floor tile is made to look like stone, and while it might hold up just as well, it will cost less.
2. Scraped wood flooring
Wood flooring has always been popular, but some people are afraid it won't hold up. One new trend is hand scraped wood flooring. Few hardwood floors have more character than hand scraped flooring. Hand scraped flooring is traditionally composed of hand scraped flooring planks, rather than milled boards. And, much like other hand made building materials, the charm of these floors lies in the unique irregularities that result from the hand scraping process. If you're interested in hand scraped flooring, contact Cinderella Carpet One about choosing the right wood, finish, and installation method for your home.
3. Engineered wood flooringOne of the latest and greatest advances in wood floors has been the introduction of engineered wood flooring, constructed of sandwiched finished wood and plywood.
Engineered wood flooring looks identical to solid wood flooring and can be sanded and refinished. But unlike solid wood that can twist and warp, this product stands up well in areas of moisture. Since their invention in the 1960s, engineered wood floors have improved in appearance and performance, accounting for 30 percent of all the wood flooring sold in America today.
