    We travel with our 3 dogs and keeping the carpet in our motorhome clean is not an easy job. We were thinking of replacing the carpet with a tile floor. I don't know whether or not the weight and flexibility of tile is of concern. We have a 37' gas motorhome. I know a lot of diesels have tile floors, but have not seen this in gas. Does anyone have any suggestions and/or recommendations? Thanks!

    You can use floor tile in the motorhome but remember the bonded cement is different from stuff you buy at Home Depot. They make a special cement and grout that has latex in it. If you lay the tile and do not use the correct stuff you will have a mess to remove all the broken tiles overtime. It will crack like glass. Tiles needs to move as you travel.
