10 Bathroom Materials That’ll Withstand Any Abuse. Bathrooms have to endure various kinds of damage – humidity from steamy showers, splashing water at bath time and piles of damp towels, to name a few! HouseLogic names 10 materials, such as engineered stone for countertops, which are non-porous and therefore resistant to bacteria, mold, stains and water damage, that can hold up to any abuse homeowners throw at them.
6 Materials Savvy Remodelers Never Use in Their Kitchens. In most homes, the kitchen is the room that endures the most use and abuse, so when it comes time to remodel, it is essential to avoid using cheap or flimsy materials. HouseLogic spoke with remodeling experts about the building elements that homeowners should never use in their kitchen remodel, including inexpensive sheet vinyl for flooring, which can become unglued and bubble up if water leaks from a dishwasher or refrigerator.
5 Things That Will Totally Ruin Your Bathroom Remodel. Not all building materials can survive long-term use in a bathroom, so using the wrong materials can result in a lot of wasted time, effort and money. Look at HouseLogic’s list of materials that do not belong in a bathroom to avoid making any bad decisions, such as wallpaper, which could start to peel in a few years.
9 Gorgeous Kitchen Materials That Are Practically Indestructible. What is better than a Pinterest-perfect kitchen? A Pinterest-perfect kitchen that stays that way even after years of use! Check out HouseLogic’s list of durable – and beautiful – kitchen materials, such as glazed ceramic tiles, which are immune to moisture, are resistant to stains and easily wipe clean.
