3 Benefits of Tile Flooring
Tile flooring is a great option aesthetically and practically. There are many tile flooring options available and several benefits of tile flooring to explore:
1. Durability
Tile flooring will last a long time compared to other types of flooring. Ceramic and porcelain in particular are known for their durability. This makes tile one of the top basement flooring options as well. However, you can extend the life of any type of tile by caring for it properly.
Using mild cleaning products to clean a tile floor–nothing abrasive or acidic is a must. Tile is hardy, and when installed your contractor will seal the grout to make it even more so. Grout sealants can make your tiles resistant to discoloration from spills, stains, and other marks.
2. Versatility
Tile is a versatile material for design with many popular tile trends and options to help you get the look you want. It comes in a near-infinite array of colors and textures; so whether you’re tiling a hallway, an entryway, a bathroom, or a kitchen, you’ll be able to make tile work. Whether implementing bathroom flooring ideas or ideas in another room, there are lots of fun things you can do when designing a tile floor.
You can use predesigned patterns or come up with your own! Mixing and matching patterns is one of the design trends in luxury vinyl flooring and it is something you can do well with tile or luxury vinyl tile (LVT). Talk with your contractor about the possibilities your space holds.
3. Hypoallergenic
Tile is good for your respiratory health. Unlike carpets and other types of flooring, tile does not harbor allergens. It carries few to none of the volatile organic compounds that other types of flooring may have. Also, it’s easier to clean and remove common surface allergens, like dust or pet hair, from tile than from other flooring types.
These are just a few benefits of tile flooring. If you see signs it’s time to replace your flooring or want to upgrade your flooring, consider tile.
