Wood Effect Porcelain tiles? Or Wood flooring?
Comments (16)This is a question i get asked all the time. We sell miles of Wood Effect Porcelain Tiles for anything from a small cloakroom floor to huge living spaces. Like someone said Porcelain is Cold to touch where as the real thing, not as much. Most of the Builds we supply it to are installing Water underfloor heating throughout the areas its being fixed to so you avoid this problem. With the phenomenal technology being used to create these tiles they are now available in Lengths of up to 1700, they are looking more and more authentic. With hundreds of factories around the globe all giving it their best shot there really are some true stunners that not only fool the eye but the touch too. The positives of Porcelain really outweigh the negatives, no warping, no swelling, no staining or scratching. We once had a customer that replaced her traditional wood with porcelain because it was so much easy to look after and she didn't need to worry about her cleaner using the wrong product and staining it. Be careful with Amtico as they are not all UV protected and can fade. Take a look at our http://www.houzz.co.uk/projects/2107824/wood-effect-tiles-dolphin-wood for just a small insight into how Porcelain effect tiles can really transform any area of the home.

Comments (4)Hi I'm in the process of buying a property which has wood effect tiles too in the kitchen and hall. I have opted to have Karndean flooring in my lounge which also opens up to the garden so I didn't want carpet. They come in many styles so maybe have a look at these? I have chosen one around £25per sq m which is the cheapest range. They are basically VInyl planks that get glued to your floor. Easy to clean and you don't have to worry about water warping the planks. Hope his helps...See MoreOak stairs and oak flooring in hall- is it too much wood??
Comments (7)Completely agree that there are no hard and fast rules. We've done many projects that use oak for both the flooring and the stairs. A good way of breaking it up may be to go for tiles what was your reasoning for not considering them before? It can often be a throwaway comment by friends who similarly cannot envision what the finished look can be. If they aren't a professional with your overall 'look' and 'feel' constantly in mind I would often take their opinion with a pinch of salt....See Morekitchen flooring - grey tile or wood effect tile
Comments (7)The tiles were lifting by the patio doors, so they lifted 2 rows and then realised they couldn't get the same shade of tile. We also then found out they had laid ceramic rather than porcelain, so other houses had reported lots of chips in the tile - so they agreed to take up several houses floors!...See Moresarah67534
