#TileBar Tip: Is ceramic tile the right tile for your project? 👇 Here’s what you need to know!
The Pro’s:
🔹 An Affordable Option
Many ceramic tile options are quite affordable and can help you to stay on budget while still offering great design options.
🔹 Easier to Install
Ceramic tiles are often less dense than porcelain, making them easier to cut and install. This can make your DIY tile project a lot easier.
🔹 Unglazed Options
Ceramic tiles can be finished without a glaze that is perfect for designs incorporating an earthy, natural aesthetic, or if you’re looking for a slip-resistant surface in an area where there are high amounts of moisture.
The Con’s:
🔻 No High-Traffic Areas
Ceramic tile isn’t typically as strong as porcelain, so it doesn’t fair well in higher traffic floor areas like kitchens, living areas, high-use walkways, and commercial spaces.
🔻 Not Good with High Moisture
Ceramic tiles are often more porous than porcelain, so it’s a good idea not to install them in high-moisture areas such as shower floors or exterior environments.
