Wood flooring is always a popular finish option, but because it can be expensive and hard to maintain, imitation ceramic and vinyl options have become much more popular and sophisticated in the past few years. Gone are the days of tacky linoleum with repetitive prints on them. Today’s tiles are virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Whether you’re going for a weathered reclaimed look or a refined polish, vinyl and ceramic tiles can *cover* it all.
Do you think you can pick which of these are real wood and which are imitators?
