There are three main types of tiles available for home projects: ceramic, porcelain, and stone. Each of these materials has unique qualities that make them suitable for different purposes.
Ceramic tiles are made from natural clay that is fired in a kiln. They are often glazed for added protection and color. These tiles are light and versatile, making them ideal for use on both walls and floors.
Porcelain tiles are similar to ceramic tiles, but they are fired at a higher temperature, which makes them stronger and more durable. They are well-suited for high-traffic areas and can also be used outdoors.
Stone tiles are made from natural stone slabs and each tile has a unique veining, texture, and coloring due to the natural variations in the stone. These tiles are perfect for high-traffic and moisture-prone rooms, whether indoors or outdoors.
Wood-look tile provides the stunning, authentic appearance of hardwood flooring with the added benefits of durable tile. Although not a novel idea, recent advancements in digital technology and manufacturing have made it possible for this flooring option to closely resemble natural wood while also being highly functional. This allows you to enjoy the aesthetic of hardwood in areas where moisture or other factors previously made it impractical. By choosing wood-look tile, you can have the best of both worlds.
