Wood-look porcelain tile flooring is becoming a real trend as of late. It seems I can’t walk into my local coffee shop without running into this new fad. In fact, I remember first coming in contact with wood tile flooring and thinking, “this is brilliant!” The benefits of this look-alike flooring are immediately obvious and, in the right applications, it just seems to make sense.

From my vantage point and perch here are a few benefits of wood tile flooring.

Durability

The first and most obvious benefit of wood tile flooring is it’s durability. Porcelain floors are scratch resistant, easy to clean and virtually waterproof. This floor can handle the stress of a kitchen, bathroom and laundry closet, not to mention the traffic of a commercial space. This tile just works. You get the durability of a tile and the look of a wood.

Variety

Another benefit to this style of flooring is the vast varieties that wood tile flooring comes in. There are a variety of grains, which gives the space the seeming uniqueness of actual wood, but there is also the variety of color.

Because this tile is made from porcelain and not wood there is a vast amount of colors these tiles can come in. This is helpful as home owners and families look to match their flooring with the rest of their home, they’ll find many color options.
