What is the longest-lasting flooring for a kitchen?

• <div><p>Porcelain and ceramic tile are two of the longest-lasting kitchen flooring materials. However, while these materials can withstand a good amount of daily wear and tear, they’re likely to crack if you drop something heavy on them, and they’re pricier than many other options. On average, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-buy-and-install-ceramic-tile.htm">installing a ceramic tile kitchen floor costs</a> between $1,240 and $11,250. Other durable kitchen flooring options include natural stone and concrete.</p></div>

Q: How many years does good carpet last?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">Carpet lasts</a> between five and 15 years. However, your carpet's life span will depend on several factors, such as its type, cushion, and the amount of foot traffic it receives. After 10 years, most carpet will show some signs of wear and tear, which might include fading, wrinkling, and loss of texture.</p></div>

Q: What is the life expectancy of carpet tiles?

• <div><p>With proper care, carpet tile can last 10 to 20 years. These tiles are used in office settings and are designed to handle heavy foot traffic. However, tiles can start to look a little less fresh over time in super busy homes with pets and kids. Keeping extra tiles on hand to swap out will ensure your carpet looks its best.</p></div>

Q: Does it matter which direction laminate flooring is laid?

• <div><p>You can lay your laminate flooring in whichever direction you'd like. However, you should check your materials' instructions and see what the maximum length limit is for the installation. This differs according to the brand you buy, but you can expect it to be around <b>40 linear feet</b>. Depending on the size of the room, this might dictate which direction you end up laying the planks.</p></div>

Q: What flooring is least toxic?

• <div><p>The flooring that is the least toxic is solid wood. Natural linoleum, tile, stone, bamboo, and cork flooring also make the list of least-toxic flooring types. These flooring materials are safer and healthier for your home because they are natural materials that aren&rsquo;t manufactured with chemicals, unlike laminate flooring. While some laminate flooring brands are made with less formaldehyde, many contain high levels of toxic chemicals that can off-gas in your home for months and years after installation.</p><p>Choosing natural flooring materials that are easy to clean without chemical cleansers can also help keep your home safer.</p></div>

Very well. There was a 2x2 hole that needed patched. We took wood boards from the entry (which weren't needed) to patch so it matched. Cody offered two different options to try and save me some money. I get compliments on the floors from everyone who sees them.
