The kitchen and bath are two of the most trafficked rooms in the entire house. Because of the amount of use they see, the question of durability of materials has an even greater importance here than in other rooms. What types of flooring are the most durable? What are some longer-lasting materials for counter tops?
Flooring is one of the most prevalent concerns among homeowners looking at remodeling the kitchen and bath, its durability being foremost in mind. Wooden floors are often coveted in modern American households, yet many homeowners turn away from using wooden flooring in a kitchen or bathroom due to concerns over water damage. In fact, while some woods are prone to water damage more easily, others stand alongside some of the most durable options for flooring, even in a moisture-prone roof. That wooden floors should never be found in the kitchen and bath is a myth.
Tiling is another of the most popular options for flooring in a kitchen and bath, not only for its durability, but also for the aesthetics. Tiling comes in ceramic, stone, metal, and glass, with ceramic being the most cost-effective choice.
Countertops are another big concern. Granite is, of course, top-quality, but also top-dollar. The truth is, durable countertops come in all forms, from natural stone to synthetic plastics and laminates, ceramic tiles, and even solid wood. It all depends on your kitchen and bath needs and your aesthetic tastes.
Decisions for the construction materials of the kitchen and bath are not to be made lightly, and should never be made without the consultation of a qualified contractor. Make sure to talk to your construction company and/or contractor to decide what option is appropriate for you.
