Tips for selecting the right tile for you
...Think about the particular space.
...Think about the amount of wear and tear the tile will endure.
...Will the tile be installed in a major traffic area of your home?
...Will people be wearing shoes or socks when walking through?
...Will the tiles often get wet?
...Also think about which surfaces will be covered: floors, countertops, and/or walls?
...Different types of tiles are designed to withstand varying levels of impact. For example, tiles made for walls might look similar to floor tiles, however, they are not as thick or as durable.
...Estimate how much tile you will need to determine the correct amount of tile for your space, multiply the length times the width and then add roughly 5 percent.
...We suggest you also keep a few extra spare tiles on hand incase some are damaged in the future.
...Select the tile material. There are multiple different materials that tiles can be made of. The material will affect the appearance, durability, and maintenance of the tiles. The finish and texture are important to consider as well.
...Your tile should be comfortable to walk on and be a good fit for your design vision. Don’t forget about the grout. Make sure to select a grout color and width that will compliment your tile. Unless you strongly desire the effect of stark white, we recommend staying away from it.
...Stark white grout can be very difficult to keep clean and will show dirt more easily than other colors.
Maintenance: You’ll also want to consider the amount of tile maintenance that will be required when making your choice. For example, porous tiles will often need annual sealing. Also, heavily textured tiles and light colored grout will require more scrubbing to clean than other options.
