The cleft texture of slate flooring makes it highly durable, resisting scratches and wear. The slate texture also provides a safe surface that won't become slippery, making it a excellent choice for in the kitchen or work areas.
The combination of good stain resistance and anti-slip properties make slate one of the greatest all around kitchen appropriate flooring materials on the market.

Laying out slate flooring can be accomplished without professional help, but it requires a significant investment of time and a set of tools. A diamond bladed saw provides the sharpness to cut through slate. Thinset must also be purchased along with the tile, which is used to fasten the tile to the underlayment.
With a smooth concrete surface, no underlayment may be needed. With a an existing hardwood flooring installation, or cracked concrete, an underlayment of concrete will be needed to begin the installation the right way. It is crucial that the correct thinset be used with certain tile sets. The thinset bonds the tile to the underlayment, and if done improperly the floor can eventually start drifting. Be sure to have a large bucket and something to clean up mortar that spreads across tile surfaces.
After purchase you should carefully check the contents of your product to ensure that none of the tiles are broken. Tiles can often time be broken during shipment from the manufacturer to the retail store. If you do find any broken tiles make sure that replacement tiles are available that will match the original tiles.
