Decorating Tip: Flooring in a Snap!

Have you ever wanted to replace your ugly kitchen or bathroom floor but shudder at the price of replacement?! Did you ever want to upgrade your humdrum foyer floor and turn it into a showstopper? Then take a look at SnapStone tiles. Snapstone offers a floating tile system that can be installed over existing floors.

Each individual tile is embedded in an interlocking tray with a rubber base.  You just position the tile, snap into place and grout. SnapStone tiles are made of genuine porcelain and come in several sizes so you can design different patterns - as seen above. There are many colors and perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, and foyers.

Snapstone tiles seems to be a good flooring idea and from the pictures they look quite promising. Can we do the tile work ourselves as you tell that they are interlocking ones. Or should we hire a Floor installation service.
