"Hi Luke , personally I would go for tiles , tile will last longer in a busy area, eg kitchens , but can be more money to start with , but will be better in long run , incase of leaks . Or water damage , as tiles probably laid will last"

"Hi mate .
Yes personally I’d stay away from laminate flooring in any areas liable to wet . Laminate will easily warp . Ceramic tiles never a problem done correctly but a tad more expensive in the short term .
Hope that helps !"
