THE BEST FLOORING OPTIONS FOR KITCHENS AND BATHROOMS
By Bramer's Flooring · 2025-03-28
Kitchens are the toughest test for any floor — water, heat, dropped knives, dragged chairs, daily mopping. Here are our top picks for kitchen and bathroom flooring in Warwickshire homes.
1. LVT (LUXURY VINYL TILE)
Our most-recommended kitchen floor. 100% waterproof, warm underfoot, quiet, scratch-resistant, and available in stunning wood and stone effects. Compatible with underfloor heating.
2. SHEET VINYL
Budget-friendly and seamless. Hard to beat for a bathroom or utility room where water resistance trumps aesthetics.
3. ENGINEERED HARDWOOD
Stunning in a kitchen if you protect it from standing water. Choose a brand with a good factory finish (e.g. Kahrs, Ted Todd) and mop up spills promptly.
WHAT TO AVOID
Solid hardwood: too sensitive to spills. Standard laminate: water sneaks into the joints and swells the boards.
