Flooring for kitchens

Follow these top tips to find the right flooring for your kitchen

Points to consider:

  • In a hard-working room, such as a kitchen, the flooring must be ultra-practical.

  • Vinyl is the perfect choice - it's water resistant, warm underfoot and less likely to break a dropped glass

  • Other brilliant buys include hard wearing slate tiles and easy-to-clean ceramic tiles

  • Dark flooring is less likely to show up marks and will create a striking contrast when teamed with pale units.
