There are an unlimited variety of tiles which you can use for your upcoming home renovation
project. The choices are unlimited, and there are tiles made of every kind of material you can
think of, from standard to exotic; porcelain, ceramic, glass, metal, natural stone, resin,
leather, wood clay, concrete, mother of pearl, fossils and more. In addition to the many
materials, tiles are available in a variety of different sizes, shapes, and thicknesses.
Accessories, such as accent tiles, are also available to enhance your tile design. There are
countless patterns to choose from, or you can customize your space with a creative, unique
pattern that is all your own. Here's a summary of the most common types of tiles:
▸ Ceramic tiles can be glazed or unglazed. Glazed tiles are available plain or
decorated and can
be used on walls and floors. The biggest advantage of ceramic tile design is that it's
maintenance free. It is not porous, can be easily cleaned and comes in a variety of colours and
styles. The disadvantage is that wear and tear may crack or chip the top glaze. This will create
a visible mark because the base is a different colour than the glaze coat.
▸ Unglazed ceramic floor tiles are more suited to commercial and industrial
settings, but can be
used in laundries and utility rooms. They are available with a non-slip profile.
▸ Glass tile: This has become a big trend in recent years. At one time, it was
extremely expensive
but now is much more affordable. Glass tile can be used as a border or used to create beautiful
mosaics in a great variety of colours and custom blends. The beauty of glass tile is unique
because the glass reflects the light, which highlights every tile. Installing glass tile
requires a higher level of expertise and some special materials but if you like the look, it's
worth it.
▸ Quarry tiles are a traditional product made in the UK for hundreds of year. They
are made from
natural clay, squeezed through an extruding machine, and then fired. They are mostly available
in terracotta, black and white colours.
▸ Terracotta tiles are also made from local clays. Terracotta means "cooked earth"
and these
products tend to be very absorbent, so need sealing when used on the floor.
