Different types of tiles
Ceramic & Porcelain
Although ceramic and porcelain tiles may be referred to as being similar, there are important differences. Porcelain tiles tend to be more expensive, but they are less porous and can absorb water. Porcelain tiles can be more hardy, dense and stain-resistant than ceramic tiles. They are also harder to wear. Porcelain tiles can be used both internally and externally for areas with high footfall.
Mosaic
Mosaic tiles were first used in Rome and ancient Greece. For non-conforming areas such as uneven walls and wet rooms floors, mosaic tiles work well. No matter what mosaic tile you choose, the impact it makes on a room is unmatched.
Marble
Marble tiles can be formed by intense heat and pressure. It is quarried around the globe. Every piece of marble is unique, and can be instantly identified by its many swirls, large veins, and variety in colours. It should be sealed, as with all natural stones. This will increase stain resistance and reduce absorption. Marble tiles give off a feeling of quality and luxury.
Granite
Granite's speckled appearance is highly regarded for its strength and beauty. Granite is a dense stone that's not as porous and less susceptible to staining than other natural stones. Granite is a popular choice for flooring with high traffic. It's often used as a countertop or vanity in kitchens. Granite comes in a variety of colors and should be sealed, as with all natural stones. This will increase stain resistance and reduce absorption.
Limestone
Limestone has been formed over many millions of years. It is dense, hardy and very durable. There are many colours and textures available, but it is most often in neutral colors with a matte finish. It is great for floors and walls, and should be sealed as with all natural stones.
Travertine
Travertine is a popular type of natural stone. This limestone form comes in neutral colors and a matte finish. It's distinguished by the small holes. These holes can either be filled with cement or left unfilled. It should also be sealed, as all natural stones do.
Terracotta
Terracotta can be made from clay heated at high temperatures in the kiln. It comes in a reddish-brown colour, similar to garden pots. Because of its durability and ability to be used internally or externally, Terracotta is a popular material. You can use Terracotta tiles sealed or unsealed. They can also be glazed for added colour and durability. These tiles have a rustic and Mediterranean feel.
Quartz
Quartz, a man-made product, is made of 90-95% quartz and the remainder is resin. Quartz can often have a shiny appearance and look similar to granite. However, the metallic speckles make it more unique. Underfloor heating cannot be used with quartz. It requires two-part adhesive that contains liquid latex, not water.
Slate
Slate tiles come in different thicknesses, so you can easily identify them by the dark grey color and their rough texture. Most slate tiles cost less than natural stones tiles.
Split the Face
Split face tiles consist of several different pieces of stone, all joined in random patterns. They don't require grout joints. Split face tiles have a 3D effect due to their different stone thicknesses. To interlock each tile with the previous tile, there is a toothed edge at one end.
