For home renovation floors, you may be entangled in whether to lay wooden floors or tiles.
In fact, different groups of people have different feelings about this issue.
To put it bluntly, some people like to lay tiles, and some people like to lay wooden floors.
Therefore, when we choose, we should choose according to our own preferences. Don't look at what others say is good and what is not.
And the following is to introduce to you, is a friend of mine: I heard others say that the tiles are good, and the wooden floor was replaced with tiles during the second renovation. After the experience, he didn't vomit or be unhappy with these words.
In this renovation, why did you replace the "wooden floor" with "tile"?
As I told you above, my friend replaced the wooden floor with tiles when he renovated this time.
So why is this happening? Is the wooden floor bad?
After listening to his feelings, I personally think that it is not entirely because of the wooden floor.
Rather, it is a decision made by taking into account one's own actual conditions and daily life situation.
Among them, the following four reasons were the factors that determined his decision to replace the wooden floor with tiles.
(1) - the whole house is paved
A large factor in this renovation of the wooden floor was replaced with tiles, which was influenced by the whole house.
I believe that for the current stage of home decoration, the whole house is still very popular.
The so-called all-through paving means that all the floors in the house are covered with tiles.
The whole house is tiled, which has the following advantages:
(1) Make the interior appear larger. Because the interior is connected with tiles to form a whole, the space can be extended and appear more spacious.
(2) The interior is brighter. Because the choice is a glossy brick, plus it is a light color. Therefore, after the paving, the interior is indeed brighter than the original wooden floor.
(2) - Cleaning wants to save effort
This renovation replaced the wooden floor back with tiles, and also considered a very important factor, that is, I wanted to clean more labor-saving.
After the renovation and move-in, many friends may have a headache about cleaning.
Especially for the floor of the home, it needs to be cleaned frequently.
If not cleaned, the floor will look dirty and have a layer of dust.
After changing back to tiles, it does have the following advantages in terms of cleaning:
(1) The ground is better to clean. For example, if the floor is dirty, you can use a vacuum cleaner to sweep it clean, which is very labor-saving.
(2) The ground is also more resistant to dirt. Tiled floors are easier to care for and more resistant to dirt than wooden floors. Therefore, the floor tile floor, if you don't sweep the floor for a week, it looks very clean at home.
(3) - Save money
This renovation replaced the wooden floor back with tiles, in fact, I also took into account the desire to save money.
For many friends to decorate, the cost will be considered.
Especially the current home improvement, you will find that the cost of home improvement is really high now.
For example, the price of an ordinary home decoration is basically more than seven or eight hundred yuan per square meter, or even more than 1,000 yuan.
A 100-square-meter house, the simplest and most ordinary hard decoration, may be close to 100,000 yuan.
And if the whole house is tiled, it can indeed save some costs in this aspect:
(1) The cost of tiles plus paving is almost 150 yuan per square meter. Compared with the mid-end parquet, which is close to 200 yuan per square meter, one square meter can save 50 or 60 yuan.
(2) The whole house is tiled, and the cost of the door stone can also be saved. Because tiles can be used instead, this can save a lot of money.
(4) - I want to use it for a longer time
In fact, there is a very important factor to consider when replacing the wooden floor with tiles, that is, you want to use it for a longer time.
For home decoration, in fact, we should all consider factors such as ease of use and durability.
Therefore, home decoration should not blindly pursue appearance, but should pay more attention to whether it is practical and durable.
For floor paving, if durability is considered, then ceramic tiles are undoubtedly the first choice.
Well, the floor in the home, for most families, is nothing more than tiles and wooden floors.
After comparing tiles and wood floors, you will notice the following differences in durability:
(1) Tiles can be used almost forever. Like we choose ordinary brand tiles, as long as the quality is passed, after paving, you can live for more than ten years without problems.
(2) The wooden floor is particularly squeamish. If it is damaged by moisture, there may be a series of problems such as peeling and arching. Moreover, if there is water when mopping the floor, it will cause peeling on the edges of the wooden floor, etc.
How about changing the "wooden floor" back to the "tile"?
What is the experience of replacing the wooden floor with tiles?
In fact, this is also a personal experience after paving tiles and moving in.
These experiences, in fact, also determine what is good about indoor tiling? What are the bad situations?
So, I consulted with this friend and summarized his experience for everyone.
(1) - The home is brighter
After replacing the wooden floor with tiles, the first deep feeling is that the home is brighter.
In fact, for some small apartments, the lighting is not particularly good. As a result, the light in the home appears dim.
Another point is that for the changes in the current house type, in fact, the sunny side lighting is becoming less and less.
So, that's when we need to think about indoor lighting.
Therefore, the light is poor, it is recommended that you choose tiles, which can achieve the following benefits:
(1) The surface of the tile will hardly absorb light, but has a certain reflection effect. Therefore, tiles are not like wooden floors, which will cause the interior to be dim after being laid.
(2) The bright tiles can reflect the light, and then make the interior appear brighter. Therefore, for the room on the shady side, it is recommended that you pave the glossy side of the tile, and you will find that the effect is really good.
(2) - Clean
After replacing the wooden floor with tiles, the second very obvious feeling is that the home looks very clean and tidy.
After the renovation and move-in, it is very important to be able to keep the home clean and tidy.
Many friends complained that the newly renovated home still looks very clean and tidy. However, within a few days of moving in, it was messy and dirty.
In fact, this problem is not only related to our living habits, but also has a certain relationship with the decorative materials we choose.
Because for different decorative materials, there are differences in terms of keeping them clean and tidy.
Compared with wooden floors, ceramic tiles have the following advantages in these aspects:
(1) The surface of the tile is easier to keep clean and tidy. For most families, if we don't mop the floor for a week, you'll find that the floor tiles are still very clean.
(2) The surface of the tile is easier to clean. If the floor in our house is dirty, it will be fine to mop it with a mop. However, if it is a wooden floor, you need to be careful.
(3) - easy to take care of
After replacing the wooden floor with tiles, it gives people a deeper feeling, and another point is that it is particularly easy to take care of.
This point must also be paid attention to.
If we find that after the decoration, they are all some high-end materials, which are used carefully, and it is indeed very difficult to take care of.
One of the more typical materials is solid wood flooring.
For solid wood flooring, if we don't take care of it, we find that after a year or two, the surface will become dirty, and it may crack after a long time.
And for the tiles, it is very easy to take care of.
Because we usually live at home, we can complete the following care of the tiles:
(1) Tiles do not need any maintenance. We just need to use it, the surface of the tile is dirty and mop it with a mop, and the ground will look very clean.
(2) There is almost no need to use the waxing of the surface to varnish. The surface of the tiles has a certain hardness and has a certain brightness. So, even if you use it all the time, you won't have much of a problem.
(4) - More worry-free
After replacing the wooden floor with tiles, it gives people another deep feeling, that is, it is more worry-free.
Worry-free, in fact, is also a key point that we need to pay attention to in home decoration.
In fact, this is also the reason why I have not recommended everyone to choose high-end materials for decoration.
Because we renovated just to move in. Staying is to experience a warm and comfortable life.
However, if we were to use some high-end materials, it would bring all sorts of worries.
So, when you compare ceramic tiles and wooden floors, you will find that the difference between the two in this regard is also obvious.
For the tiles, it was really very worry-free after we moved in:
(1) Tiles do not need to be carefully maintained, nor do they need to be carefully maintained. It is just normal use on it, and it can be wiped when it is dirty, and it can keep the tiles very clean and new.
(2) Don't worry about soaking, damp and a series of situations that cause problems with tiles. This is a great advantage compared to wood flooring. Wooden floors, on the other hand, are subject to moisture and water.
Written at the end of the article
For different ground decoration materials, when choosing, we must consider the actual situation of our family to make a choice.
If it is almost difficult for us to take care of the floor and do not care for it very much, then it is recommended that you choose tiles. In fact, this is suitable for most ordinary families. If we live a more refined life and have more affluent hands, then we can choose wooden flooring.
