Questions
What types of ceramic tiles are available?
We offer glazed, unglazed, and porcelain ceramic tiles. Glazed tiles have decorative surfaces, unglazed tiles provide enhanced durability, and porcelain tiles offer maximum water resistance for various applications.
What are the benefits of porcelain tiles?
Porcelain tiles provide frost resistance, stain protection, and exceptional durability. Their low water absorption rate makes them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, while maintaining aesthetic appeal over time.
How do I choose bathroom tiles?
Select non-slip porcelain tiles for floors and water-resistant ceramic options for walls. Consider tile size relative to room dimensions and choose neutral tones for a timeless look or bold patterns for feature areas.
What thickness do outdoor tiles need?
Outdoor porcelain tiles should be 20mm thick for optimal durability against weather conditions and heavy foot traffic. This thickness provides better resistance to cracking compared to standard indoor tile thicknesses.
Can tiles be used with underfloor heating?
Porcelain tiles work exceptionally well with underfloor heating systems. Their thermal conductivity and dimensional stability ensure efficient heat distribution while maintaining structural integrity during temperature changes.
