How to Choose Porcelain Tile

Start by deciding where the tile will be installed. Porcelain floor tile should be selected with traffic level, finish, texture, and area of use in mind. Porcelain wall tile can create clean vertical surfaces for bathrooms, kitchens, showers, fireplaces, and feature walls. Porcelain shower tile should be reviewed carefully for wet-area suitability, especially if the tile will be used on a shower floor.

Next, choose the look and finish. Marble-look porcelain tile can create a refined stone-inspired surface. Wood-look porcelain tile can add warmth with a practical tile format. Stone-look porcelain tile can feel natural and understated. Matte porcelain tile can create a softer surface, while polished porcelain tile can feel more elevated and reflective.

Porcelain Tile by Project

Use porcelain kitchen tile for kitchen floors, backsplashes, walls, islands, and pantry areas.

Use porcelain bathroom tile for bathroom floors, walls, vanity areas, powder rooms, and wet-area designs.

Use porcelain shower tile for shower walls, shower floors, niches, and tub surrounds when product specifications support the installation.

Use porcelain backsplash tile for kitchen, bathroom, bar, and laundry backsplash projects.

Use porcelain mosaic tile when you want smaller formats, patterned sheets, added texture, or mosaic layouts for floors, walls, showers, and backsplashes.

Always review product specifications before ordering. Area of use, finish, texture, size, and installation requirements should guide the final selection. Order samples to compare color, finish, texture, and scale before choosing your final tile.

 

Porcelain Tile FAQs

Porcelain Tile Floors, Walls, Residential, Commercial

Porcelain is a composition of clay and rock minerals that can be shaped into anything from a large-format slab to a subway tile tile or mini mosaic. It's finished with a glazed surface that can be designed to look like materials ranging from natural wood, gemstones, marble, or other patterns.

Although they're both made of clay and fired at high heat, porcelain is much more dense than ceramic. It's also fired at higher heat at least twice, making it less porous and more durable than ceramic.

Most porcelain tile is rated for up to heavy commercial floor use, but versatile enough to install on walls both indoors and outdoors. It can be used as a stain-resistant backsplash, a stylish floor, and even a swimming pool in certain designs.

The composition and firing process makes porcelain tile resistant to cracks, heat, scratches, and moisture damage. It can replicate natural materials like stone and wood without their drawbacks, making it a low maintenance and durable choice for floors, wet areas, and even swimming pools.
