Wood effect tiles are the ideal way to add detail to your flooring but with added advantages over natural wood products.
Why choose wood effect tiles:
- Hardwearing
- Easy to clean
- Does not stain, scratch, warp or fade
- Waterproof
- Ideal for use with underfloor heating
- Natural look
- Choice of modern and rustic designs
- Fit brickbond, staggered, grid or herringbone layouts
The main benefit of wood effect tiles as opposed to natural wood is that they will require little maintenance. Not only are they exceptionally easy to clean, they will also keep on looking their best for years to come as they are really hard wearing. This means you can be relaxed and happy that your investment should see little wear and tear over time.
