Best Benefits of Tile

Tile is incredibly durable and easy to care for. It’s also water-repellent and long-lasting.

Most tile floors are designed to last for the life of your home, making them a wise investment. Having tile boasts many benefits:

• Tiles are available in various colors, textures, sizes, shapes, and patterns.

• Since they’re installed individually, you have a lot of freedom to create a truly unique custom design.

• You can install tile anywhere around your home, from foyers to bathrooms, kitchens, patios, laundry rooms, accent walls, and basements.

• Tile is usually low-VOC and hypoallergenic, and it is made from eco-friendly materials, making it a green flooring choice.

What Are the Best Types of Tile?

There are three main types of tile: ceramic, porcelain, and stone. For residential settings, porcelain and ceramic are the most popular options.

Ceramic and porcelain are made of the same materials. Both ceramic and porcelain are available in traditional tile looks and vibrant colors.

• Porcelain tile is denser and more robust. This means porcelain floor tiles are better equipped to handle heavy moisture and foot traffic. Certain ones can be installed outdoors. 

• Ceramic tile is more budget-friendly than porcelain, and it’s great for wall tiles and backsplashes since it’s lightweight.

• Stone tile is made from natural rock, offering unique looks that can add value to your home. No two stone tiles are the same; they offer their subtle shade variations, veining, and textures. Stone is usually treated and sealed to protect against spills, stains, and scratches, so it will last a long time if properly maintained. Stone tiles are a premium material and are pricier than ceramic and porcelain. You can install stone tiles outside.

What is Wood-Look Tile?

Combining the stunning grains of natural wood with a durable tile construction, wood-like tile can handle moisture and heat much better than its natural counterpart.

Because of this, this tenacious tile is right at home in a kitchen, bathroom, or even a laundry room. But you need not stop there: wood-look tile can also make an eye-popping wall installation and can even be used to create customized showers and bath areas.

Modern imaging technologies have made it possible to develop realistic hardwood visuals and textures down to the fine details of intricate wood grains and patterns. These impressive tiles are offered in traditional tile dimensions and planks, allowing you to customize your tile compositions fully.

Tile Ideas for Kitchen & Bath

Tile is a top choice when it's time to give your bathroom or kitchen a much-needed update, and we’ve got the skills and products to help with your complete transformation. 

Adding beautiful new tile flooring or a bold new backsplash can make all the difference, bringing your tired old spaces to the ultimate trend. Tile can always be counted on to protect your subfloors and wall studs from everyday moisture, with many waterproof options available. Some tiles arrive fully textured, offering added traction to the floors near your tub or shower: these look stunning and can protect slips or falls from happening. 

A tile backsplash is a great way to give your bathroom a new, creative kick. It will add color and visuals and make your space stand out with a one-of-a-kind waterproof wall. This technique also works wonderfully on your kitchen backsplash.

However you opt to enjoy tile, it's an option that’s well worth considering when planning your kitchen or bathroom renovation project.
