IMO, for a kitchen or bath, cause they are wet areas, my only options would be ceramic, porcelain, or natural stone tile, or a vinyl product. People have put wood products, like hardwood, engineered hardwood, or laminate in the kitchen with some success. i would be worried that a spill would get under the laminate and start warping the product. No matter what you use, make sure the problem with your current floor is fixed, or it may occur again. Your flooring is only as good as your sub floor. Michael

Hi All, We're thinking about putting in a new kitchen floor. We have a sort of tile floor, but it's rapidly cracking, corners are breaking off, etc., and I'd like to know what types of flooring people put in their kitchens? Would laminate be good or not, since it might be prone to scratching? All suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks.
