- I am so tired of the whole house being carpeted. My current home has both carpet and tiles flooring. I really like the tile floors. They are easy to keep clean and feel cool to my bare feet. My next home will have nothing but tile flooring.

- To Tssfacts: Tiles are quite nice in warm climates and with underfloor heating (cold climates).No ugly radiators.
Be careful choosing grout. Choose waterproof one.

- Seems like tiles would really be the easiest way to go if you are installing the flooring on your own. Nice lens.

- Thanks Davis66. The best usage for mosaic on the floor would be in bathrooms (shower room) or swimming pools. In some cases - it might be hard to maintain it because of trapped dust particles.
