Kitchen flooring styles
Whether you’re a gourmet chef or specialize in ordering out, the kitchen is a key area for every home. Your flooring sets the tone for your living space the next time you savor a meal. Our experts weigh in on the styles found in kitchens in 2018.

Increasingly popular, and unlikely to fall out of style, these options are not prone to water damage or stains. From wide planks to thin, and from high gloss to distressed, hardwood fans are flocking to laminate and vinyl flooring for kitchens.
Tile flooring
A classic staple that is still going strong, tile is durable and simple to maintain. While white tile is an instant fix to make your kitchen appear larger, consider also using larger or hexagon tiles to add style and roominess to your kitchen.
