So, let\u2019s break down the advantages and potential drawbacks of these two flooring types to help you determine which one is the best choice for your home.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"BFOH2-lower\">The Pros and Cons of Hardwood Floors<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Scratch-Resistance:<\/strong>\u00a0Wood floors are not particularly resistant to scratching. For high-traffic spaces or for people with pets or children, this can be a big concern. Hardwood will show signs of wear and tear, becoming scuffed and scratched from pet claws, shoes, furniture legs and more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintenance:<\/strong>\u00a0Day-to-day care for hardwood is as simple as sweeping or vacuuming. However, long-term maintenance often means refinishing\u2014sanding away the imperfections and resealing the wood\u2014which can be costly and inconvenient.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water-Resistance:<\/strong>\u00a0One of the main drawbacks of hardwood flooring is that it is not resistant to water. Floors with a fresh polyurethane coating will be resistant to absorbing water to some degree, but it\u2019s not foolproof and not permanent. Wood will absorb water and liquids, both from spills and simply from moisture and humidity in the air. Warping and staining are two potential issues that moisture can create with hardwood.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Longevity:<\/strong>\u00a0Hardwood that is well taken care of can last for many years. However, over time, hardwood will lose its finish and may become scratched, stained, worn or warped. While some people appreciate the rustic patina of old, worn hardwood, it\u2019s not everyone\u2019s cup of tea, so this is an important consideration long-term.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Style:<\/strong>\u00a0Hardwood flooring is timeless and comes in many types and finishes. While many homeowners like the style of hardwood floors, certain finishes and colors can be divisive depending on personal tastes.\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_3774\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3774\" style=\"width: 419px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3774\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/icon-silver-concrete-look-porcelain-bedroom-floor-tile.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"419\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/icon-silver-concrete-look-porcelain-bedroom-floor-tile.jpg 419w, https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/icon-silver-concrete-look-porcelain-bedroom-floor-tile-297x300.jpg 297w, https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/icon-silver-concrete-look-porcelain-bedroom-floor-tile-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 419px) 100vw, 419px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3774\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Icon Silver Concrete-look Porcelain Bedroom Floor Tile from Arizona Tile<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"BFOH2-lower\">The Pros and Cons of Tile Floors<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Scratch-Resistance:<\/strong>\u00a0Most types of tile flooring are very resistant to scratching.\u00a0<a href=\"\/products\/tile\/porcelain-and-ceramic\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">Porcelain tile<\/a>, for example, is extremely durable and difficult to damage under normal, everyday use.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maintenance:<\/strong>\u00a0Many people love tile because it is very easy to clean and maintain. While natural stone tiles have some particular maintenance considerations to be aware of, tile can be simply swept or wiped clean when dirty.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water-Resistance:<\/strong>\u00a0Most types of tile are exceptionally resistant to water. Porcelain tile does not absorb water, making it easy to clean up spills without having to worry about stains and water spots. One important consideration about tile floors is that many varieties can become slippery when wet. So, in rooms where tiles may be exposed to water frequently, such as bathrooms, we recommend using porcelain tile with\u00a0<a href=\"\/products\/r11-anti-slip-finish\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">R11 Finish<\/a>\u00a0for safety.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Longevity:<\/strong>\u00a0Tile floors are designed to last for many years. Tile\u2019s easy maintenance and durability makes it an excellent long-term choice for a home. Natural stone tile such as\u00a0<a href=\"\/products\/tile\/marble\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">marble<\/a>\u00a0can be re-sealed on a regular basis to maintain its original beauty for years to come.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3773\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3773\" style=\"width: 421px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3773\" src=\"https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/tru-marmi-venatino-polished-rectified-glazed-porcelain-bathroom-tile.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"421\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/tru-marmi-venatino-polished-rectified-glazed-porcelain-bathroom-tile.jpg 421w, https:\/\/www.arizonatile.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/tru-marmi-venatino-polished-rectified-glazed-porcelain-bathroom-tile-300x296.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 421px) 100vw, 421px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3773\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image: Tru Marmi Venatino Polished Rectified Glazed Porcelain Bathroom Tile from Arizona Tile<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Style:<\/strong>\u00a0Tile comes in a huge range of styles, shapes, sizes, colors and patterns, making it an extremely versatile choice.
