Ceramic tile may be the only flooring material that truly works in any room of the house. It’s most often used in kitchens and bathrooms as well as foyers, mudrooms, and other high-traffic areas. But many homes, especially in warm climates, use tile to great effect in living areas and bedrooms, too. In other words, you really can’t go wrong with tile. What you can do is wish you had something softer or warmer in certain areas, and you might want to spring for professional installation.
