Is there a company that makes a ceramic tile, but it has a wood grain look? I want a wood floor look, but due to a pet and heavy traffic, I need something more durable with less maintenance.

Hi Elsieblue,

I have seen such ceramic tile, at my favorite local tile store. Try googling "wood-look ceramic tile" for a number of sites.

I suggest trying a good tile store first, before going to a big box home improvement. They will have far more interesting tile. They will be far more helpful. And they may even be cheaper! I've had really good luck finding great tile in the "outlet" room.

I like wood flooring as much as the next guy, but don't expect a wood-look tile to "be" a wood floor. And when you're in the tile store, don't be too surprised if you fall in love with many other choices!

Regards,
