Why Porcelain Tile Works Everywhere
Porcelain tile flooring isn't just about good looks, although there's plenty of that. The real magic is in how this material is made. Fired at higher temperatures than regular ceramic, porcelain becomes incredibly dense and durable. That means your porcelain floor tiles can handle heavy foot traffic in entryways, stand up to splashes in bathrooms, and keep their appearance year after year.
What makes porcelain tiles special:
- Built to last: The high-density construction means these tiles resist chips, scratches, and wear better than most flooring options
- Moisture resistant: Perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, mudrooms, or any space where water is part of daily life
- Low maintenance: A quick sweep and occasional mop keep porcelain tile floors looking fresh
- Versatile styling: From classic hexagons to modern penny rounds, the design possibilities are endless
Finding Your Perfect Porcelain Style
Our porcelain tile collection includes everything from tiny mosaics to larger format tiles. Whether you're drawn to the geometric appeal of our Pinnacle Hexagon Patterns or prefer the clean lines of subway tiles, you'll find porcelain options that fit your aesthetic.
Porcelain tiles for bathrooms are particularly popular because they combine practicality with style. The Lyric Unglazed collection offers a sophisticated matte finish that adds texture without sacrificing slip resistance: a smart choice for shower floors and bathroom walls!
Making It Work in Your Space
The beauty of porcelain floor tile is its flexibility. Use it throughout an open-concept space for visual continuity, or mix shapes and finishes to define different areas. Smaller mosaic formats like our penny tiles create visual interest on backsplashes and accent walls, while larger tiles work beautifully for expansive floor areas.
Many of our customers love combining different porcelain tiles from the same color family. A hexagon floor paired with square wall tiles in coordinating shades creates a cohesive, layered look that feels intentional and custom.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I install ceramic tiles myself?
While DIY installation is possible, professional installation ensures proper waterproofing and longevity, especially in wet areas. If you decide to install on your own, make sure to follow the instructions carefully.
What's the difference between porcelain and ceramic tile?
Porcelain is fired at higher temperatures, making it denser, harder, and less porous than ceramic. This translates to better durability and water resistance.
Can I use porcelain tiles in my shower?
Yes, porcelain tiles are excellent for showers. Their low porosity prevents water absorption, and unglazed options provide natural slip resistance for shower floors.
Do porcelain floor tiles need to be sealed?
Glazed porcelain tiles don't require sealing. Unglazed porcelain tiles may benefit from sealing depending on the application, particularly in areas exposed to staining.
Are porcelain tiles hard to install?
While DIY installation is possible, porcelain's hardness requires proper tools (especially a quality wet saw) and technique. Professional installation ensures the best results.
