The best way to make your flooring last longer is to invest in high quality hard-wearing flooring.

The main options are:

> Marble; very hard wearing but can also very expensive. Gives a beautiful pattern and are often used in high standard bathrooms.

> Limestone; not as hardy as marble but can give a similar effect.

> Travertine (a kind of volcanic rock); a budget option for those wanting a similar look to marble and limestone. The nature of the stone

> Slate; hardy and cheap.

> Sandstone; reasonably hard-wearing but not advised for high-traffic areas.

> Terracotta; a very hard wearing flooring that can last for decades.

> Solid wood; can be very expensive and susceptible to the effects of moisture, but in the right setting they provide a beautiful atmosphere.

> Laminate flooring; the cheaper option for those wanting a wood-look floor.

> Vinyl; a cheap option although high quality vinyls can last a long time and modern pattern making technology can replicate a marble or limestone floor.

> High quality carpet; the most common option.
