Ceramic Tile Flooring

9 years ago

We are hoping to change our flooring in the near future. I love the look of houzz homes I've seen with red oak floors with dark walnut stain. However, hardwood flooring is not financially possible at this moment.
We had ceramic tile that looked like wood in the bathrooms and laundry room of our last home, and we really liked it. My internet searches aren't providing me with any great options for tile flooring that looks like the specific hardwood look I love so much. Does anyone have suggestions?
Thanks!

Where do you live? Warm climate? I would only install tile (wood look-alike floors) in a warm climate. Wood is so much warmer. I know you can get manufactured wood floors for similar cost of tile wood.

I live in the Phoenix area. It's about to be unbearably warm for about the next five months, lol.

Yes. Go to a tile shop. This is a material best chose IN PERSON. A tile shop specific to that material will have a wide selection. It's Arizona!! Why must it mimic any hardwood, a material far less employed in that climate? There will be a zillion other options. Take your time, the AC will be on I am sure : )
