Kitchen Flooring Installation
A kitchen is one of the busiest places in your house, probably next only to the bathroom. Aside from heavy foot traffic, kitchen floors are also prone to splashes and spills. If you’re looking at updating your kitchen floors, you need something beautiful, durable, and waterproof.
Kitchen Remodel Nashville has been installing kitchen floors for years, whether as a standalone project or as part of a kitchen remodel. We have different flooring options for you. Before we get into those options, it’s also important to know what the trends are.
Kitchen Flooring Trends
Geometric patterns
Geometric patterns are popular in kitchen floor designs. Hexagonal tiles, for example, are attractive and inviting. You can also opt for a herringbone pattern using wood or tiles in different colors.
Plain gray
If the color white in kitchens is on its way out, it’s because gray is in. choose from laminate, ceramic, or porcelain types for your best options.
Chessboard
Chessboard patterns were popular from the 1960s to the 70s. These are making a comeback, so expect to see a lot of them. Here are the top choices for kitchen floors.
Kitchen Floor Options
Ceramic
Ceramic or porcelain tiles are popular for a reason – durability. You can choose from different colors, patterns, shapes, and styles. Not only are ceramic floors waterproof. However, the grout can get stained, and it is essential to clean up spills immediately.
Some finishes can be slippery, so make sure to choose slip-resistant tiles. If you like the look of stone or wood, you can use ceramic tiles that mimic the features of stone or wood.
Hardwood
Hardwood floors look luxurious and continue to be a popular choice. Not only are they warm and stylish, but they’re also very durable. When treated with the right finish, they can be resistant to moisture. They won’t be completely waterproof and can still be damaged when exposed long-term to water.
With great care, hardwood can last for a long time. You can mix light, medium, and dark-toned wood for a customized look. Using reclaimed or recycled wood is a sustainable choice.
Laminate
Laminates are a great choice if you want something that resembles hardwood but doesn’t cost as much. Like hardwood, they are also water-resistant but not waterproof. These days, manufacturers can provide waterproof laminates, which are robust and more stable.
Natural stone
Natural stone is always a great choice but is more expensive. Like ceramics, you can choose from a wide variety of colors and patterns. Unlike ceramics, sealing and resealing is essential. Natural stone is attractive and will make your kitchen elegant.
Stained concrete
Concrete is durable. These days, you can stain concrete to make them look like wood or stone. You can also treat them to make them waterproof since they tend to be porous. Concrete tends to be slippery, but you can use mats to cover slippery surfaces.
Tile
There are different kinds of tiles, and it’s essential to choose tile flooring for kitchen floors. The tile is classic, durable, and suitable for areas that get wet. After installing, the tile needs to be sealed and grouted.
Vinyl
Vinyl is becoming more popular in recent years and continues to do so. Vinyl today isn’t like your grandma’s linoleum. Modern vinyl has wood composites or plastic composite added to it to make it stronger. Because they are waterproof, they are excellent for kitchen floors.
When choosing materials for your kitchen floors, you want to choose something durable and attractive. You want something durable enough to withstand all the activity in the kitchen and the spills and stains. You also want something easy to maintain. Choosing the right type of flooring is so important and can be a daunting task.
