[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. This is encouraging. We are renovating now and trying to decide between tile (current) and HW in kitchen. Do kitchen HWF wear out and need refinishing, typically, faster than those in other rooms in the house? 2 kids, no pets here.[/quote] I will always prefer tile in the kitchen and bathrooms as it's simply more durable (not a big fan of wood in 1/2 baths either). We have some very minor warping in our HW floors in a couple spots I'm guessing from the previous owners when a water leak likely went undetected under the kitchen sink. These days appliances are garbage that fail/leak and it takes a lot more to damage/warp tile floors than wood floors. Just my 2 cents. Ultimately you can't go wrong with either, but tile is certainly more durable.[/quote]
