What Types of Tile Are There?

Tile is made from various materials, but the lion’s share of products is made using ceramic, porcelain, or stone.

• Ceramic tiles are an excellent choice for homes and a cost-effective option for almost any application. Ceramics can be installed in areas like kitchen and bathroom backsplashes, on moderately trafficked floors, and on accent walls. It is water-resistant and sold in all your favorite colors, shapes, sizes, and patterns, so you can truly customize it.

• Porcelain tile is the most durable tile type. It’s crafted with high heat and pressure and made to last. What makes porcelain unique is it’s completely waterproof, which makes it perfect for any area of your home. Outdoor patios, entryways, laundry rooms, bathrooms, custom showers, kitchens, and living rooms are just examples of where you can install porcelain tile.

• Stone tiles are known for their luxurious looks. They exude beauty and elegance and while they can be costly, there is simply no alternative to natural stone tiles. Stone tiles are usually made of slate, granite, marble, or other natural stone materials, and no two are identical.

Tile That Looks Like Your Favorite Hardwood

Wood-look tile is made using traditional tile materials, such as ceramic and porcelain, giving it an elegant wood grain.

Modern advances in digital printing technologies achieve extremely realistic visuals and textures, incorporated into both tile and plank shapes. Unlike actual hardwood, tile can take on everyday elements like extreme heat and moisture.

Since it features all the flexibility of a tile, wood-looking tile can go anywhere, both indoors and outdoors. Certain types of wood-look tile can even be used to create a captivating backsplash or accent wall.

Where Can I Install Tile?

We’d be hard-pressed to think of a setting where tile can’t be installed.

Tile can be fully customized by mixing and matching your favorite products to create a unique wall or floor composition. One of the best ways to make your home stand out is to customize a tile backsplash.

It’s easy to mix colors, patterns, and styles to create a unique tile backsplash. If you’re interested in what is up and coming, designing a pattern in the tiles can be one way to personalize your tile while staying on trend. For example, adding a mosaic every few tiles or a border around the top and bottom of the backsplash can be one way to keep your home stylish.
