Tile Flooring

Tile is a durable, versatile, and visually appealing flooring option for both homes and commercial
spaces, offering excellent water resistance. It's particularly ideal for areas prone to water exposure,
such as kitchens and bathrooms, where spills and accidents are common. This low-maintenance
floor only needs occasional mopping, while other types of flooring like hardwood or laminate may
experience wear and require refinishing/replacement over time. Additionally, the wide variety of tile
styles available allows for a customized look, making it a great choice for those looking to create a
specific aesthetic or vision, something other flooring options may not offer as easily. The typical
complaints for tile are (1) it's a cold, hard walking surface that some don't find pleasant and (2) it
doesn't muffle or absorb sound very well, changing the acoustics of a room or space. Overall, tile is
an excellent option for many spaces in the commercial or residential sector that we highly
recommend, particularly for areas with water.

Ceramic Tile vs Porcelain Tile

Porcelain tile is created by combining finely ground clay and minerals, which are shaped and then
heated to very high temperatures, typically between 2,200 and 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit. This
process, called vitrification, produces a dense, durable material that is highly resistant to water,
stains, and scratches. After being fired, porcelain tiles can either remain unglazed or be coated with
a glaze, giving them a smooth and glossy finish.
The end result is a strong, long-lasting tile that is ideal for a variety of uses.


  • High durability
  • Water & stain resistant
  • Low Maintenance
  • Longevity
  • Can be more expensive than other tiles
  • Wide variety

Ceramic Tile

Ceramic tile is produced by blending clay with other natural materials, shaping the mixture, and
then firing it at lower temperatures compared to porcelain tile. The tiles are baked in a kiln at
temperatures between 1,000 and 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, creating a slightly softer material than
porcelain. Ceramic floor tiles are commonly chosen for low-traffic areas, such as bedrooms or
guest bathrooms.
• Affordable
• Relatively durable and water resistant
• Wide variety
• Less durable than porcelain
• More porous than porcelain tile, so more likely to absorb stains
• Higher maintenance than porcelain due to stain absorption - requires more frequent
cleaning.

Maintenance and Durability - The Bottom Line

Porcelain tiles are highly durable due to their dense and hard composition. They offer superior
resistance to extreme temperatures, making them suitable for outdoor use, while ceramic tiles are
more prone to cracking or chipping in such conditions. Additionally, porcelain tiles are less likely to
fade, keeping their original appearance for many years.
When it comes to upkeep, porcelain tiles are easy to clean and require minimal maintenance, with
little risk of staining or damage. Many of our customers appreciate that they don't need sealing and
can be cleaned with just soap and water or a mild cleaner.
Although ceramic tiles are also relatively low-maintenance, they may need more frequent sealing
and cleaning to maintain their look over time. They're also more vulnerable to scratches and stains
than porcelain tiles. These factors are important to keep in mind when making your choice.
