We went to have a look at floor tiles and wall tiles. Firstly we called at Super Ceramics which is next to the Morrison's Garage in Keighley. There were plenty of tiles (all at full price) but none that really took our fancy - (although there were some fancy tiles at fancy prices!)
We then went on to Magnet in Skipton, and had a second look at the wall tiles on the display which featured our kitchen, and decided that they would look rather special in our kitchen, so we went ahead and ordered them.
The next consideration was what to put down on the floor, we had considered real wood floorcovering, but realised that we have a dog who tends to slurp when drinking, and the amount of water on the floor would not be conducive to the wooden floor covering staying down without becoming "curved at the edges." We then considered laminated floor covering, but once again the same problem was envisaged!
Speaking to the salesman in Magnet he sugested Ceramic Floor Tiles - no problem here as to how much water is spilt on them! We have also considered some floor covering similar to cushion floor which looks exactly like a genuine wooden floor, but once again is not affected by water spills! The third alternative is Vinolay, which we have ruled out.
Samples of the tiles and cushion floor type coverings have been brought home to match to the colours of the kitchen and the worktops.
So what is it to be.....
Laminate or wooden floor covering? (N0!)
Floor Tiles?
Cushion Floor?
I think at the moment the odds are on cushion floor!
