What are the different types of floor tile?

There are many different types of floor tiles available on the market, each with unique features and benefits.

Ceramic tiles are made from clay and are easy to clean and maintain, making them suitable for most rooms in the home.

Porcelain tiles are denser and harder, making them more durable and resistant to scratches and stains.

Natural stone tiles such as marble and granite are popular for their elegant and timeless look. They are incredibly durable with proper care but can be more expensive than other tile types.

Vinyl tiles are water-resistant and easy to clean, making them ideal kitchen or bathroom tiles.

Foam tiles are soft, shock absorbent and easy to clean, making them an ideal choice for children’s play areas, at-home activity spaces and pet flooring.

Which floor tile is the best or most durable?

In general, porcelain tiles are considered the most durable type of floor tile due to their density, hardness, and resistance to scratches and stains. They are also highly resistant to moisture, making them suitable for high-moisture areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Natural stone tiles are also highly durable with proper maintenance. However, they require more upkeep than porcelain tiles and can be more expensive.

What does it cost to tile a floor?

The cost to tile a floor can vary widely depending on the type of tile, the size of the room, and whether you choose to DIY or hire a contractor.
