1. Heated floors help prevent cracked tile and grout 

In Pennsylvania, the constant temperature changes can cause tile and grout to expand and contract, leading to cracks over time. That’s why we’re fans of installing radiant heat floors, like the Warmboard Comfort System™ in bathrooms, kitchens and master bedrooms we’ve designed.


Heated floors distribute warmth evenly, reducing temperature fluctuations that contribute to damage. By keeping the surface at a consistent temperature, heated flooring minimizes stress on materials, extending the lifespan of your tile and grout. Whether you’re upgrading a bathroom or a kitchen, radiant heat flooring is a great way to protect your investment, increase your home’s aesthetic appeal and add a touch of much needed luxury. 

2. Increases the value of your home 

Modern buyers are drawn to homes with upgraded features that offer a touch of luxury and practicality. Heated floors are seen as a premium addition, making your home stand out in the market. They enhance energy efficiency, especially when paired with programmable thermostats, which can also appeal to eco-conscious buyers. Installing heated flooring can increase your property’s market value, providing a strong return on investment. 

3. Adds comfort and luxury 

Heated floors offer unparalleled comfort, eliminating the shock of stepping onto a cold tile floor during chilly mornings. This feature creates a cozy atmosphere that’s especially appreciated in bathrooms, kitchens, and basements. The consistent warmth also reduces reliance on traditional heating systems, which can lead to a more energy-efficient home. Adding this luxurious feature transforms everyday living into an indulgent experience. 

A glimpse at our most recent project

This winter, we returned to the home of one of our repeat clients to begin on a new project featuring heated floors. In the past, our team has worked on this mid-century modern home adding a touch of luxury to both the kitchen and master bath, which we proudly call the Kitchen Oasis and Elegant Spa projects. As is tradition, we’re giving this project a name too: Mid Century Modern Escape.


To get the Mid-Century Modern Escape project started, we integrated cutting-edge floor heating systems from Warmboard® to create a warm, inviting environment that will keep your toes warm year-round. The sleek, modern design of the heated floors was complemented by custom reclaimed wood flooring designed by KD Woods, adding a perfect balance of sophistication and durability.


In addition to the flooring, we installed rot-free trim from Kleer Lumber to ensure longevity and to ward off pesky mold. Next, we added customer cabinetry from Derita Woodwork which is the perfect blend of form and function, while premium quartz countertops from Caesarstone elevated the space’s overall aesthetic. From start to finish, every element of the renovation was meticulously planned side-by-side with the client and executed by the Wood.Stone.Steel. team to deliver a space that embodies luxury and practicality.
