It would seem that quite recently our compatriots knew 2-3 types of floor coverings and were extremely happy when they managed to buy one of them. Today, the range of this product is so large that we only learn about the existence of some new products when we visit a large construction supermarket.
Despite this, floor tiles, like many years ago, remain our favorite and, in our opinion, the most reliable floor covering. This beautiful and durable finishing material is popular not only among ordinary buyers - many well-known designers like to work with it. A huge selection of textures and colors, high wear resistance and easy maintenance make floor tiles an ideal flooring. It is important that this material is environmentally friendly, not subject to rotting or burning. In addition, if the tile was laid in accordance with technological standards, then its fracture strength will be equal to the strength of reinforced concrete floors.
When comparing floor tiles with other equally popular materials,such as linoleum or carpet, then the clear advantages of the tile will be obvious - it does not fade, its surface does not sag under the weight of furniture, it does not require
any special care. Thanks to a huge range of colors and textures, tiles can be used in a room decorated in any style.
However, let's be objective. Floor tiles still have disadvantages. This is - firstly - high thermal conductivity, due to which the coating cools very quickly. For this reason, walking on the floor without shoes is not recommended. Today, this problem can be combated by installing a water or electric underfloor heating. But this is not possible in all cases, moreover, this event may entail additional costs. Many also refer to the disadvantages of tiles and the laboriousness of its installation, which requires the involvement of high-class craftsmen. But we are ready to argue with this statement - any floor covering requires professional and high-quality installation work, so the tile in this case is no exception.
Today, floor tiles are used in almost all areas of a house or apartment. It should be noted that everywhere it looks very organic and, if the choice is made correctly, it successfully emphasizes the overall style of the room. And yet, most often this coating can be found in the hallway, bathroom and kitchen.
Kitchen floor tiles are still out of competition. Do not delay withbuying this material before the start of the repair, because if you make a purchase just before laying it, you may rush and make the wrong choice. Go shopping in advance, study the available samples, find out what floor tiles are available. Price also matters and affects the final choice of material. Look at what online stores offer - it may be convenient and profitable for you to place an order without leaving your home. Approach this issue seriously, because you do not make repairs every year, and you will have to enjoy your choice for a long time.
