Stone Tile at Floormall.com
If you live in the country, or an urban area that gets a lot of dust or mud or rain or snow, then the room or rooms that your family enters first, may need a new floor. A solid floor may prove invaluable. Linoleum or vinyl tile could be put down in a mud room or a family room entered from the patio. If entry is through a front door then a tiled entryway will work, which can then lead into your hardwood or other flooring in a living room. A tiled foyer could also lead to carpeting or rugs. If there’s a mat that is washable and put down right as people enter your home, then this can hold any dust or moisture. Check out a few ideas for these critical areas, on floormall.com.
Stone tiles are also a beautiful addition to any room whether it’s subjected to dust and moisture, or not. They come in many colors and can include slate, granite and even marble (for those mansions!) Because natural stone tiles are not made in a factory and are cut to size, the measurements do vary quite a bit. This will be noticeable if you lay them square-on in a checkerboard pattern. These kinds of tiles need to be laid in a staggered pattern so any slight variances will blend right in, and you won’t see them.

Sealed hardwood may also be used when there’s concern over “tracking in”. Real wood is easier to keep clean than you might imagine, as long you don’t let any pools of water sit on it, there shouldn’t be any problems. To clean hardwood floors all you need is a damp mop that was dipped in warm water and a little vinegar. No need for that expensive balsamic kind — just the plain sort should work fine. For cleaning up any of your other floors you can take a peek at floormall.com’s university of info. There’s no tuition involved, which might be a relief now that the kids are out for the Summer!
