7 Things You Need to Know About Ceramic Tiles for Your Home

Choosing a new tile might not be at the top of your priority list when thinking about remodeling your home or building a new one. Yet because there are so many different tile types and uses it’s a good idea to start gathering information as soon as possible.

• Tiles have existed for a very long period. In fact, the oldest known tiles date back to roughly 4,700 BC and were discovered in an Egyptian archaeological dig.
• Due to their ease of maintenance, lack of porosity when glazed, and resistance to mold, tiles are the most popular wall covering in bathrooms.
• The most prevalent and diverse kinds of tiles are ceramic ones.
• Ceramic tiles are more expensive than porcelain ones, but porcelain tiles are stronger, better for places with heavy usage, and come in sizes up to two feet square!
• The cost and difficulty of working with real stone and marble tiles are significantly higher. Moreover, they might need to be sealed if they are porous. But there are several cleverly designed and incredibly realistic fake equivalents available.
• The term "bullnose" describes the shape of a tile's edge, which can be either single (rounded on one edge) or double (rounded on both edges) (rounded on both sides).
• As the name implies, subway tiles are typically 3 by 6 inches and were commonly used in subways. They can be placed in many different patterns, including herringbone, and are frequently white.
