The flooring you select for your home can make a huge impact on its overall aesthetic. Searching for a modern, contemporary look? Seamless poured floors with no visible joins or ridges are a great option. Prefer a cosier, country-style feel? Wood-look tiles could be the right solution. Discover the many options available to suit every style and budget.

THE SELECTION PROCESS

Longevity and style are the two factors you’ll need to consider when selecting flooring for your home. Your floors will need to complement the look and feel of your home and hold up against ongoing wear and tear.

According to Joanne Sykes, marketing director at Cemcrete, other important factors include your budget, whether you want different flooring or one continuous look throughout your home, and what your eco-friendly options are. “Once you have made these decisions and narrowed down the choices that fit within your scope, making the final decision should be relatively easy.”

Liza Watermeyer, visual display manager at Tile Africa, suggests you start the process by considering the way you live in your space and then choose flooring accordingly. “A home with children and pets may require more durable and low-maintenance flooring. Homes with a pool should consider a slip-resistant option that is waterproof.

“Do you entertain often or is your home a quiet sanctuary, away from the world? These factors will influence your choice of flooring to create a home that suits your personal needs and the way you use the space.”
