Your kitchen is the heart of your home. It’s a gathering place where memories are made, and it should feel as warm and inviting as the people that live in it. One of the most crucial design elements of a kitchen is its flooring. When it comes to choosing the right tile, you need to make a decision you will enjoy for many years to come. At Brenner Floors, we are experts in tile flooring installation who understand how important your home is to you. That’s why we’ve put together this handy guide for  choosing the right tile for your kitchen.

 

Beautiful Mosaic Floor Tiles

For historic homes and classic charm, mosaic tiles offer a taste of elegant luxury. Mosaic floor tiles have remained fashionable for millennia, and with good reason. They reflect light well, which means they can brighten up even a smaller, darker kitchen space. These small tiles can be used to create striking patterns and elegant designs. They are available in a wide range of options from bold metallics to delicate neutrals. Mosaic tiles are also resistant to water and stains, making them a nice fit for a high-traffic area like a kitchen.

 

Here are few examples of mosaic tile’s style versatility:

●        Contemporary chevron

●        Mid-century modern designs

●        Stacked rectangles

●        Combined textures

 

The Practicality of Ceramic Tile

Ceramic tile is not a strong conductor of heat, which means it may help lower your household energy costs. It can be easily cleaned using a damp towel and soap, and it is fairly stain-resistant. Ceramic tiles are resistant to scratches and minor dings, which means they will stand up to the test of time fairly well. They are also available in a nearly limitless array of styles and colors, making them perfect for matching the style of any home. Whether you want a glossy or matte look, ceramic tile can meet your need.

 

High-Performance Porcelain Tile

If you have a large or active family, you might want to consider porcelain tile. Porcelain tile offers incredible durability for heavy use. These tiles are significantly denser than their ceramic counterparts, which means they are far more likely to withstand the bumps and dings of a busy household. Porcelain is also highly resistant to fire, making it a safe option for an active home.

 

These tiles are also incredibly stain-resistant, repelling water and liquids easily. Consider using a darker grout to camouflage any spills that leave their mark between tiles for an extra low-maintenance kitchen floor.
