Porcelain

Natural stone can be beautiful, but we often recommend porcelain for so many reasons. Here are a few:

Consistent Beauty – Enjoy the elegance of natural stone without its unpredictable variations. Porcelain provides a uniform look while still offering styles with natural stone-inspired patterns for added depth and character.
Endless Design Choices – From matching trim and decorative accents to a variety of shapes and sizes—square, rectangular, large, or small—porcelain offers limitless possibilities to complement your style.
Low Maintenance – Porcelain is non-porous, making it resistant to stains and easy to clean. Unlike natural stone, it doesn't require sealing, saving you time and effort in upkeep.
Exceptional Strength – Fired at high temperatures, porcelain is incredibly durable, resistant to wear, and tougher than ceramic tile, making it a long-lasting choice for any space.
Chip Resistance – Since porcelain is typically unglazed and features solid color throughout, minor chips and imperfections are far less noticeable.
Perfect for Outdoor Use – Porcelain stands up to the elements, making it a great option for patios, walkways, and other exterior applications.
Moisture-Resistant – Ideal for wet areas like showers, bathtubs, and pools, porcelain remains unaffected by humidity and water exposure.
Easier Installation – Compared to natural stone, porcelain is lighter, more affordable to install, and provides a hassle-free alternative without sacrificing durability.

Natural Stone

Granite, travertine, marble, limestone – timeless elegance and beauty. Sure, it is more “work” than porcelain and varies from stone to stone (even within the same “lot”), but it is so lovely. It’s a great choice for outdoor living areas and walkways. We can help you find the right stone for your project and make sure you have the proper sealers and information on how to take care of your natural stone.

Glass

Glass can infuse a space with movement and color. From a beautiful kitchen backsplash to eye-catching retro looks in the bathroom, glass tiles are available in beautiful colors and textures.

Stainless Steel

For a fresh, contemporary look, stainless steel metal tiles are perfect for back splashes. They coordinate beautifully with stainless steel appliances and are easy to keep clean.

Tile Lingo

If you're new to tile, sorting through the terminology can be a challenge. Here are some common terms to help guide your decision making:

Apron: – Trim or facing on the side or in front of a countertop.
Bull Nose Edge: – An edging option for porcelain, ceramic or natural stone that provides a finished edge to an installation. Edging can be rounded or have a 45 degree angle.
Chiseled Edge: – A process of mechanically chipping the tile edge, thus giving the stone a rustic, aged appearance.
Coefficient of Friction (COF): – Represents a tile's natural resistance to slip, measured by the force required to move an object across the tile divided by its weight. The range is from 0 to 1. Lower numbers indicate less friction, which means the floor will be more slippery. Higher numbers mean more friction so the floor will provide greater traction. A COF greater than .50 is recommended for standard residential application. When selecting your tile, consider how often the tile will be wet and potentially slippery.
Craze: – The random pattern of fine lines or cracks on the surface of a crackle-glazed tile.
Grout: – Grout is a type of cement that is used to fill the space and provide support in tile joints. Grout is available in a myriad of colors to coordinate with the tile it is being used with.
Concrete Board: – A cement board made for wet areas that is attached to floors or walls in preparation for tiling.
Listello/Liners: – An accent tile, typically rectangular in format, generally used as a linear design element, primarily for walls.
Medallion: – A symmetrical ornamental block of tile used as a focal point in walls and floors.
Mosaics: – Tile size 2”x2” and smaller, often used with different colors to create a pattern or decorative inset. Some of these smaller tiles also come in different shapes, such as hexagon.
Subway Tile: – A rectangular and flat tile, set with a narrow grout joint; often comes in sizes with a 1:2 ratio (3×6, 4×8).
Thinset: – A thin layer of mortar used to adhere tile directly onto a backer board.
Through Body: – Unglazed tiles that are a solid color all the way through and do not have a top layer of glaze.
Tumbled Finish: – Tiles are literally tumbled, with abrasives, to produce a distressed or weathered look.
