What Are the Different Types of Tile?

There are three main types of tile to choose from ceramic, porcelain, and stone. Both ceramic and porcelain tiles are commonly seen in homes and businesses, while stone offers a unique and natural look to your home. Here’s a closer look at each tile type.

 

Ceramic Tile

Ceramic tile is lightweight, made from natural materials, and comes in a wide variety of styles. It is usually found in residential kitchens and bathrooms because of its affordability. When covered with the right glaze, ceramic can be incredibly resistant to scratching, making it a great choice if you have pets in your home or for use in high-traffic areas.

 

Porcelain Tile

Porcelain is a type of ceramic tile, but because it is baked at a higher temperature it is denser and resistant to heat and moisture. You can install it in places like your laundry room and even outside as a patio without worrying about water being absorbed and causing cracks.

 

Stone Tile

Natural stone is unique and comes in a variety of colors. Since no two slabs are quarried from the same location, the variations in the tiles give you a one-of-a-kind look. Natural stone tiles are heavy and durable, so you can have them installed inside and outside of your home. When sealed correctly, natural stone is stain and water-resistant. Stone tiles are commonly used for outside patios and when a design uses principles in nature because they are taken from materials like granite, marble, and slate.

 

Wood-Look Tile for Kitchen & Bath

This is thanks to high-definition imagery and specialized embossing, which provide an incredibly natural appearance and feel to your floor.

Where Can My Tile Be Installed?

The room in which you plan on installing tile can determine the type of tile you need for your project. Many tile options can work well for your floors, but when it comes to tile on your walls, you want to choose either a ceramic option or backsplash tile. If you wish to install tile outside, choose porcelain or stone because of their water resistance and resistance to heat. Tile also works great in bathrooms and showers, which is why we are proud to offer custom tile showers to help you bring your vision to life.
