Watch Out For Imitation Tile

 
A lot of product use the word tile in the name, and may even mimic the function of ceramic tile, but is not actually ceramic tile.

In commercial applications, ceramic tile is a more affordable option than many other materials. Due to its high durability and lifetime, it stays looking newer longer and it easy to maintain. In residential applications, these same qualities matter.

Types Of Ceramic Tile

 
We keep mentioning that ceramic tile comes in so many different options and designs, but what are those?
 
Porcelain Tile: Porcelain tile has very low water absorption, and can come in large pieces. These “slabs” make it much easier to get a large one piece tile top for counters and walls. It comes in glazed and unglazed options that work both indoors and outdoors.
 
Quarry Tile: The most durable option as far as resistance to elements and heat, quarry tile will stand up to weather and make a great option for flooring. However, it comes in very limited color options.
 
Wall Tile: Wall tiles are meant for low impact options such as showers and bathrooms.
 
There are several other ceramic tile options such as pressed floor tile and ceramic mosaic tile. With an infinite number of pattern and color choices, different shapes and sizes will help you love the new look of your space.
