Floor decoration is the largest decorative part of the home area. This is directly related to the comfort of family life, and calls for great care, so when decorating the floor, is it wooden floors or a tiles? Can compare through the following aspects.

1. Regional Factor

In winter, the climate in most parts of China is relatively cold. Tile flooring will give people a cold feeling, and the wooden floor will appear soft and warm, so the northerners are relatively suitable for laying wooden floors. Because the climate in the south is very damp, the general wood floor will bulge and peel off in the wet state for a long time, so it is more appropriate for the residents in the south to use waterproof and moisture-proof tiles.

2. Room lighting

If the lighting in the home is not good, choose tile to increase the brightness of the room. The light color tile itself can also reflect the light, and the surface is bright, so the diffuse reflection in the room will be greatly increased. and the lighting will also become better, this effect is not achieved by wood flooring without reflective function. If you have good lighting at home, you can also choose the material you like.

3. Daily Maintenance After Decoration

If you choose the wooden floor, it is very troublesome to repair, and there are many precautions. A little careless operation will cause damage to the appearance of the floor, and it is also necessary to periodically wax to maintain its color and texture, but if it is a tile, It is relatively much more convenient, just a simple wipe can be as bright as new. Therefore, if the family is busy and do not have time to clean and maintain, it is not recommended to choose the wooden floor.

4. Lifestyle

The texture of the wooden floor is relatively mild fresh and comfortable. Even if it is not cold in the winter, if you like to walk barefoot indoors, wooden flooring is also a good choice.

5. Decoration Budget Project

From the product point of view, the price per square meter of ceramic tiles is much cheaper than that of wooden flooring. If the furniture budget is relatively small but still wants to achieve a good decoration effect, it is more appropriate to choose ceramic tiles. If the budget is relatively abundant, could consider the wooden floor, especially the solid wood floor. It gives a very comfortable feeling.

Now with the development of the flooring market, you may have a better choice, that is, PVC flooring, which is a new type of lightweight body decoration material that is very popular in the world today.

PVC vs Tile

Different ingredients and production processes: the so-called ceramic tiles, the raw materials are mostly made of clay, quartz sand and so on. There are differences in performance and maintenance: the tiles are not antiskid and the texture is cold, and easy to get dirty.

There are differences in installation: the tiles are heavy, the installation is laborious, and it is difficult to remove after installation and cannot be reused. The PVC floor is light in texture and very simple to install. It can be directly paved on the original floor without compressing the space, so it is very suitable for the renovation of the old building.

PVC vs wood flooring

Wood flooring can be roughly divided into three categories: solid wood flooring, solid wood composite floor and laminate floor.

Solid wood flooring is a natural material, with the irreplaceable advantages of synthetic materials, non-toxic and odorless, comfortable foot feeling, warm in winter and cool in summer. However, it also has high price, large consumption of hardwood resources, large workload of laying and installation, difficulty in maintenance (fear of fire, fear of water, fear of moisture)and large size change of floor width direction with the change of relative humidity.

The appearance of the solid wood composite floor has the same beautiful wood texture as the solid wood floor, which is dimensionally stable and easy to lay and maintain. However, it is still unable to get rid of the shortcomings of fear of fire, water, and humidity. It is not as environmentally friendly and wearable as PVC flooring.

Laminate floor has good scratch and pollution resistance, but it is just compared with the former two, there is still a considerable gap between the superior wear resistance and stain resistance of PVC flooring.
