If you're new to tile as a floor covering, now is a great time to learn more about it. It's a great way to choose the best materials for your needs.

Porcelain tile facts

Thanks to excellent construction and high kiln temperatures, porcelain tiles are very durable. In addition, they are denser than ceramic and are often resistant to frost for outdoor placement.

A baked-on glaze means you won't have to worry about spills, permanent stains, chips, or cracks. But it also means you'll have some of the most beautiful visuals to match any decor style as well.

Ceramic tile facts

Ceramic tile is a little less dense than porcelain and doesn't attract allergens of any kind. In addition, the materials are impervious to water and easy to maintain and clean.

Regular care includes sweeping or vacuuming and wiping clean with a damp cloth or mop. You can use a wide variety of cleaners on these surfaces without fear of damaging the materials.
