Kitchen floor tile installation that stands up to dropped pans, spills and heavy foot traffic while matching cabinets, counters and the rest of the house.
A kitchen floor takes more punishment than almost any other surface. It sees spills, dropped dishes, rolling stools and constant traffic, and it has to look good next to cabinets and counters. Homeowners in Nashville choose tile for the kitchen because it is durable, easy to clean and available in endless looks, from warm wood-look planks to crisp gray stone.
We plan the kitchen floor around the cabinets and the appliances. Tile usually runs under the dishwasher and refrigerator area only if the layout allows, and we talk about how new tile height affects appliances and adjoining floors. We choose a grout color that hides everyday dirt and a finish that is easy on bare feet. Large tiles keep grout lines to a minimum, and a slightly textured surface helps when the floor is wet. If you are updating the backsplash too, we coordinate colors so the two work together. Decide what is staying in the kitchen before tile is laid. If you may replace the dishwasher, refrigerator or cabinets soon, it is smart to plan the floor around the future layout. Mention a pet, kids or a bar stool routine so we can choose a finish that handles it comfortably.
