Oreck Floor Care Center

If choosing to tile the kitchen floor, rather than use wood, there are many options available. Porcelain tile is easy to clean and care for, while a stone tile pattern can make a rustic kitchen design come alive. Whatever the material used, try making the tile flooring unique to the design of the kitchen, enhancing the kitchen design while making a style statement all its own.

Set Off Cabinets with Mosaic Tile

While mosaic tile covering the entirety of the kitchen floor could become extremely difficult to clean, using mosaics to set off the shape and design of the kitchen can make a striking appearance. For kitchens with cabinets on more than two walls, or large kitchens with islands, mosaics can help to enhance the entire design.

Begin with a large format tile, and find a complimentary mosaic tile. This can be the same material in a different size, or a different material altogether such as glass. If a secondary material is being used in the backsplash, try using that with the floor tile as well.
