Mosaics were not exactly a Roman accomplishment. The Romans picked up a taste for mosaics from others. You might be thinking of the fresco, as the art of the fresco was a strictly Roman decorating accomplishment.
Mosaic was considered one of the most important Roman accomplishments because it represented a significant advancement in the art of decorative techniques and craftsmanship. It captured the Roman passion for visual grandeur and storytelling, and showcased their skill in creating intricate and detailed designs. Mosaic also played a major role in preserving and portraying Roman culture, history, and mythology for future generations.
Many historians cite the conquer of Britain as the most important accomplishment of the ancient emperor known as Claudius. The process began in AD 43.
One of the most famous Roman mosaics is the Alexander Mosaic, which depicts the battle between Alexander the Great and Persian King Darius III. Another well-known mosaic is the Villa Romana del Casale mosaic, located in Sicily, Italy, which showcases intricate scenes of Roman life and mythology. The House of the Faun in Pompeii also contains notable mosaics, such as the Battle of Issus mosaic.
The floors in a Roman villa were generally mosaic or stone slabs. Depending on the preferences of the owner they could be mosaic scenes such as the famous Alexander mosaic or the one of a watchdog with the warning "beware of Dog", found at Pompeii. However most of the flooring mosaics were of geometrical designs.
The most important roman legacy for architecture would be the dome. And the most important Roman engineering would be the roads.

No, most Roman houses were stone floors, however some could afford a mosaic floor, but not carpets.
Not to everyone.
If a family were wealthy and wanted a mosaic of course they could have one. In fact most floors were what we consider "mosaic" in that they were made of cemented tiles. They were not all pictorial such as depicting birds and wildlife, people, etc. Most of them were of geometric shapes and designs.
