Your choice will rely on several factors, and both tiles and stone have benefits and drawbacks.
Many homeowners consider the cost to be an important factor when choosing to floor their homes. Even if you have a big remodeling budget, you can still treat yourself by saving money on flooring! Often tiles are more expensive than real stone.
It can take a while to install a tile and stone floor. It may take a week for someone with a hectic schedule to complete the entire assignment. The procedure itself is simple, and the outcome is well worth the work you put in.
While it is technically possible to place tile or stone directly on the wood subfloor, it is not advised. Wood flooring won’t give as level and sturdy of a surface for the tile and won’t adhere with this set as well as cement board. Although using a cement board will likely increase the cost and duration of your project, it is completely worthwhile. For proper installation, a substrate must be sturdy.
Any tile installation needs a strong base, which is a floor that flexes little at all when people walk on it. This is not a problem if your subfloor is made of concrete. As long as the vinyl is well affixed, you can lay tile directly over it.

To make the floor thicker and firm enough for tile, you may need to add a backer board over vinyl if your subfloor is made of wood. Removing a floor register is the simplest technique to determine the thickness of the flooring. Otherwise, search the floor for plumbing tunnels.
Home centers have everything you need for this project, but you’re more likely to get professional assistance on how to lay tile if you start your shopping at a tile and stone store.
Sketch out your floor plan quickly and note all the measurements. Take a picture of the floor around the doorway as well. The tile store employees will then be able to suggest a “transition” to cleanly connect the tile to the hallway flooring. Transitions can be made in a variety of ways to fit any circumstance.
Understand that cement compounds like thin-set and grout attract moisture from the skin and can even result in burns that need medical attention when learning how to install the tile or stone. Wear gloves if you have any particular sensitivity, even though most professionals work without gloves. Additionally, when combining grout with thin-set, utilize eye protection.
