indoor outdoor flooring ideas

Most people's homes and gardens are two very separate spaces divided by two different types of flooring. One way to create more unity in your home and garden design is to install indoor/outdoor flooring.

While you may not be able to install decking or carpet throughout your home and garden (for obvious reasons), you can install porcelain tiles. In fact, we have 10mm indoor and 20mm outdoor tiles available in a variety of different designs so that you can create the seamless transition between your home and garden that you've always dreamed of.

porcelain decking

If you want a gorgeous wood floor without the upkeep of real wood, porcelain decking is a great alternative.

Homeowners can be put off wood flooring and decking when they realise how expensive & time-consuming it is to upkeep.
