Ditch the peel & stick—here are the 5 best kitchen floor materials.
Hardwood floors remain one of the most popular picks for kitchens, thanks in large part to the warmth they bring to an otherwise utilitarian space. Kitchens can have a lot of hard surfaces , so it’s nice to bring in a bit of natural texture in the way of a hardwood floor underneath. Hardwood floors are also a great kitchen flooring option for homeowners who have an open floor plan and would prefer the look of one seamless flooring option throughout the entire level of their home.
Still, hardwood floors are not without their pitfalls in a kitchen. They tend to be softer, so dropping hard or heavy items on them can leave visible marks. Then there’s the potential of water. With so many things that can leak in a kitchen—including a dishwasher, sink, and refrigerator—many experts caution against hardwood floors, which can be more susceptible to moisture and water damage.
While there are few gripes to be had with ceramic tile, it is important to note that aesthetically it can be hard to blend with the rest of the flooring in your home if you live in an open floor plan. Additionally, ceramic tile can be much cooler underfoot than flooring like hardwood—to overcome this issue, consider installing radiant heat beneath the floors or style your space with a few rugs or runners.
While specific care and cautions can range depending on the type of natural stone you choose , all-natural stone flooring needs to be sealed properly and periodically in order to maintain its appeal in your home. Without proper sealing, natural stone can be susceptible to water and stain penetration over time. Likewise, natural stones can be cool and hard underfoot, so place a washable runner anywhere you spend a lot of time standing, like in front of the kitchen sink.
