Tile is one of those home-improvement projects that can last the life of your home in Vero Beach, so making the right choice is very important. With so many different colors, sizes and shapes available from Treasure Coast Cabinetry & More, serving Vero Beach and surrounding areas; we would like to give you some things to consider to make your choices a little easier.
Fashions Come and Go
Have you ever visited a home and walked into the bathroom with pea green tiles? Or a kitchen area that has yellow checkered tiles? Back in the 1970s in Vero Beach these were common and popular color schemes to use in homes, but today, not so much. Because tiles are, more or less, a permanent option; choosing the correct color, pattern or design is a very important decision.
Choosing a themed pattern or color scheme means that if you change your mind in a few years, you will also need to change the tiles as well; which can be costly. We recommend choosing tile colors that are neutral, allowing for accents of the bathroom or kitchen to complete the total appearance that you are looking for. Neutral settings also help with the resell value of the home.
