What is the best flooring option for Florida's climate?

☀️ 🌧️ 🥵 A classic, all-time favorite across the state is Porcelain Tile. Tile performs well in Florida’s climate because it won't warp in humidity, is impervious to moisture in wet areas (bathrooms, kitchens, lanais), and stays cool underfoot during hot days.

If you are planning a flooring project in Sarasota, Florida and the surrounding areas, 6051 Design Source and our staff of design and flooring experts can guide you and ask just the right questions:

🔸 Which rooms are you looking to re-floor?

🔸 Is this a commercial or residential project?

🔸 Do you have pets or high sun exposure?

🔸 Will the area be constantly exposed to water?

We can help narrow down the best materials for your specific budget and lifestyle.

Are you ready to put down the scrub brush needed to clean those grout lines?

Grout lines can disrupt the sleek, continuous aesthetic many homeowners prefer in modern design. Traditional cement-based grout is porous. It readily absorbs water, dirt, soap scum, and bacteria, creating a breeding ground for mold and mildew.

Our solution:

Cosentino's Dekton shower wall system is a premium, large-format vertical cladding solution made from an ultra-compact, sintered stone surface. Combining raw materials used in glass, porcelain, and quartz, it creates completely waterproof and seamless walls. It eliminates most grout lines and is highly resistant to mold and stains.

These shower systems provide design continuity and the panels are available in various colors and styles mimicking natural stone. You can match your shower walls directly to your flooring, vanity tops, and custom tub surrounds.
