Using tiles in your home will have many advantages compared to carpet or vinyl, including lifespan, maintenance and availability. Below, we’ll discuss the benefits of using tiles in your home over other materials.
Because tiles don’t really absorb any dust in the air, allergens, odours and bacteria are not harboured in tiles as they might be in a carpeted floor. In addition, tile is fired in high-temperature kilns so it doesn’t carry volatile organic compounds that are known to contribute to a wide variety of health problems.
Ceramic and porcelain tiles are hardy and durable when used as a tile. These types of tiles are very well known for their resilience and long lasting characteristics, mainly because of their resistance to cracking. It’s not just ceramic and porcelain tiles that last a long time.
Most tiles last for many years as long as you care for them properly, from proper installation to careful cleaning with the right tile after care products.
When you choose tiles, your options are almost endless. There is a wide variety of tile types, for example there are different shaped, coloured, textured, styles and materials that you can achieve any look on your floors or walls. The versatility of tiles is the main selling point for most people.
You can have anything from colourful mosaics and patterned tiles to a wood look, concrete look or natural stone. You can even find tiles made of pebbles and stones. In short, whatever look you’re hoping to achieve, from classic and elegant to rustic and homey to contemporary and modern, you can easily achieve it with the right tiles.
