Choosing your perfect tiles

Picking the right tile can feel overwhelming: porcelain or ceramic, small or large, mosaic or plank, bright white or soft gray. Let’s simplify it: 

Ceramic vs. porcelain
  • Ceramic tile is great for walls, backsplashes, and light-traffic floors. It is softer, easier to cut and install, and usually lower-cost. 
  • Porcelain tile is denser, tougher, and nearly waterproof. It is ideal for floors, outdoor patios, showers, and high-traffic areas. Porcelain tile is a top pick if you want long-lasting performance. 

Size and shape
  • Large tiles (12x24, 24x24) make spaces feel more open and reduce grout lines, perfect for modern, sleek looks. 
  • Smaller tiles (4x4, mosaic sheets) add texture and charm to bathrooms, showers, and backsplashes. 
  • Shapes like hexagons or subways create visual interest. Mixing sizes? Go for a classic herringbone or staggered stack for added flair.

Color and shade

  • Lighter shades make rooms feel bigger and brighter.
  • Darker shades hide dirt and ground a space with warmth.
  • Want drama? Marble looks or wood-look tiles give character. Play with matte vs glossy to adjust reflection and tone.

Grout choices

  • Grout is more than filler. Matching grout creates a seamless flow. Contrast grout highlights patterns, like with hexagon or subway.
  • Unsanded grout suits narrow gaps (up to 1/8 inch); sanded grout works for wider joints and heavy-use areas.
  • Sealed grout resists stains and moisture, which is smart for kitchens and baths.

Use-case guide

  • Floors: Go durable: porcelain or dense ceramic tile flooring with a matte finish.
  • Walls: Ceramic tile is lightweight and easy to install.
  • Backsplash: Small format or mosaic; accent tiles add style.
  • Outdoor uses: Only frost-rated porcelain tile with low water absorption.
  • Showers: Textured, slip-resistant tile and sealed grout are must-haves.

What are the benefits of tiles?

Tiles bring a lot to the table. They're stylish, practical, and durable. Here's how:
  • Longevity and durability: Porcelain tile can last for decades without chipping or cracking. Ceramic walls can stay fresh-looking with minimal upkeep.
  • Easy maintenance: A quick sweep and mop and you’re done. No polishing or waxing, no stains, just clean surfaces.
  • Hygienic and allergen-free: Tile doesn’t hold onto dust, pet dander, or pollen. You’ll breathe easier in an allergen-friendly environment.
  • Heat and water resistance: Tile flooring is perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, and mudrooms. Pair with radiant floor heating and experience cozy toes on chilly mornings.
  • Versatility in design: Loads of styles: natural stone, wood-look, geometric, handmade artisanal. Mix and match for borders, accent walls, or mosaic inlays. The sky's the limit.
  • Eco-friendly choice: Most tiles are made from natural clay or materials that can be recycled. Couple that with radiant heating, and you're making a greener choice.
  • Value-add to homes: Stylish, durable flooring appeals to homebuyers. Tile flooring in the kitchen or bath often increases resale value.
