Melanie...tile where?....Tile is the hands down best for kitchens, baths, laundry, entries, utility rooms. In some climates it is even good for bedrooms...ie: tropical beach type homes. My home only has carpet in two of the back smaller and out of the way bedrooms...every thing else is tile or hardwood...tile in all of the baths kitchen etc.

BTW who is trying to talk you out of tile?
