Tile has certainly evolved over the years, but some things never seem to change.
Both then and now, ceramic and porcelain are the most popular tile types. When choosing tile, it’s always important to consider its intended use and location, as well as its intended environment.
Will this tile be for heavy traffic areas? Or for a decorative backsplash? No matter what you plan to use tile for, different ones are better for different uses.
Ceramic tile is made to endure, making it a reliable option for the bathroom or kitchen.
Crafted from natural clay, ceramic tile is then fired and glazed to create a water-resistant, durable tile. Ceramic is a lightweight tile that can be used for more than just flooring.
You can use it to create a beautiful backsplash or tiled shower or tub. Thanks to its construction, ceramic is inherently chip and scratch resistant. This makes it lovely flooring for high-traffic areas, or households with kids and pets.
A tougher variety of ceramic tile, porcelain tile is made similarly but is fired at higher temperatures.
Because of this, porcelain tile is waterproof and heat-resistant, making it popular for laundry rooms, as well as outdoor gathering spots. That’s why porcelain tile is often found poolside, or on the patio.
Ever wanted hardwood floors without the hassle? Wood-look tile is just that.
Wood-look tile is a great alternative to natural hardwood flooring in our humid climate. It offers the look of hardwood with the benefits of tile flooring. Tile is known to resist moisture, warping, scratches, and stains better than hardwood.
Wood look flooring is a popular trend for both residential and commercial flooring. It comes in planks and can even vary in size to give off a more natural appearance. You can have a unified look to your home by extending your wood look tile into multiple spaces.
Tile can go just about everywhere, but the most popular spots for tile installation include:
Tile’s longstanding tradition of bold beauty isn’t limited to your floors!
If properly installed, tile can also be a beautiful alternative to paint or wallpaper. Installing a tile backsplash can instantly alter the look of your kitchen and bathroom while protecting your walls from everyday splashes, splatters, and stains. A bold tile accent wall can also make your space truly pop.
