Kitchen flooring need to know

Buyer\'s guide to kitchen flooring
  • Underfloor heating can be used with most modern flooring. Stone and concrete warm up and retain heat well. But some wooden floors, particularly extra-wide boards, certain veneers and some types of adhesive, can be heat sensitive.

  • Most flooring is best fitted by a professional. Some needs to be factored in at the start of the kitchen design process, whereas others can be installed afterwards. Ask the manufacturer in advance.

  • Even if your floor is sealed, you should still wipe up spills as soon as possible. And remember to use products recommended by the manufacturer to ensure you don't strip oils, lacquers or sealants.
