If you’re building a new home or remodeling your existing house and want to install new floors, choosing for maintenance and durability as well as aesthetics will let you make the most of the investment. Here are some low-maintenance flooring options to consider.

4 Flooring Options That Are Easy to Care For

1. Ceramic Tile

Ceramic tile is perfect for Hawaii homes because it’s cool underfoot. Plus, it’s water and stain-resistant, so it’s easy to clean, and hard enough to resist scratches and dents. Its endless array of styles and colors can be laid in unique patterns to complement any interior decor.

2. Concrete

Poured concrete floors are trending and offer many of the advantages of ceramic tile. Good for warm climates, concrete can be customized to fit most decor; you can paint, acid-stain, texturize, or stamp it for a one-of-a-kind look. The material naturally repels dust and is easily cleaned with a quick sweep and mop. Water and stain-resistant, concrete is a study option for those with pets or energetic children.

3. Luxury Vinyl

As an upgraded form of vinyl, this strong material is similar to tile while being more affordable. It’s also cool underfoot and easy to clean, requiring no special care beyond sweeping and regular mopping with warm water. It can mimic the look of other flooring materials, from stone to wood.

4. Engineered Hardwood

Engineered hardwood planks are made to withstand heat, moisture, and weight. They won’t warp or swell and offer superior scratch resistance. With simple sweeping and light mopping, they can last for decades.
