We have ceramic tiles installed in our front kitchen model, in both the kithchen and the bathroom area. We would have preferred to have hardwood flooring installed. However, our dealer told us that hardwood flooring has a tendency to warp when the trailer is stored over the winter.
Good luck

I also have a ceramic tile floor in my 31' Excella. Runs from the door, curves to meet the end of the credenza on the road side, then continues through the galley into the bathroom. Had it installed in 1996 and I'm quite happy with it. They laid a corrugated plastic on the subfloor and used a rubberized grout. Traveled 12,000 miles since and no problems. The idea became viable for me when I saw a couple of high-end Teton fivers with
ceramic floors.
