Floor Tiles or Lino

Hi people

Just having a new kitchen put it and we wanted to get some stone floor tiles but we've been advised to get some flexible flooring due to the floorboards.

Looking at either lino or flexible floor tiles (not carpet ones).

Can anyone recommend anywhere please :D

Thanx

    What about sanding n staining the floorboards, you've got??

    If you've an old house, it'll be fine, with a few rough areas, but don't leave lumps to trip over!!

    Use the exterior grade stain, rather than floor stain & it'll look & wear fine.

    Done this in the bathroom & looks good.

  • Hi, Im not sure what area you are from but where i live you can buy self adhesive floor tiles in a range of designs from the local pound shops and poundstrecher, you fet 5 tiles in one pack for a quid, i did my mothers floor and my kitchen floor and bathroom for around twenty quid, they look fab too!!! dont know if this is any use to you, but good luck!
