Tiles Are the Best Cheap Flooring Option

SYDNEY - Aug. 29, 2016 - PRLog -- Let's face it, for most of us whether we are ordering a meal, restocking our wardrobe, or buying a house, we want maximum quality, quantity and benefits at minimum costs. The same is true when it comes to finding the cheapest flooring options for our home.

However, cheap flooring options need not mean inferior quality flooring. We simply need the most durable, versatile and beautiful flooring available at the lowest price. Using that criteria as a measuring stick, tile flooring stands head and shoulders above the rest. The question is – 'why'?

Durability of Tiles

Now let's consider durability. Although each type of tile has unique characteristics, consider some of the basic facts. Tiles are generally water resistant, stain resistant, and scratch resistant. It does not splinter like hardwood and catch your heel or your stockings. Tiles also take a long time to wear. In fact, in the case of stone tiles such as marble, the tile looks better the more you walk on it, as its shine increases. Tiles are easy to clean, and this translates to better hygiene in the bathroom and in cooking areas. It also does not harbor allergens like carpet that irritate the vulnerable. As one of the premiere cheap flooring options, tiles deliver the big dividends.

They've Got the Look

Let's now talk about beauty. Tile installations allow you to not only decorate and design but to actually manipulate your living space in unique ways. For example, larger tiles tend to be more appealing to the eye and provide a double benefit in a small space. They will make the room appear bigger and also more elegant. Yet another example is using small mosaic tiles on bathroom walls. If these are glass, the light reflection will create an uplifting brightness that opens up and livens up this generally small space. Decorate by using patterned tiles to form an "area rug" in a section of a room, thereby creating a cozy nook for reading or relaxation. These are just some of the ways that tiles "strut their stuff".
