Find durable and stylish tile flooring

Should you choose ceramic or porcelain tile?

Ceramic tile is made from natural clay and fired at high temperatures. It's an affordable, attractive option that comes in countless colors, sizes, and decorative styles.

Ceramic tile works well in:

• Living rooms
• Bedrooms
• Backsplashes
• Walls
• Moderate-traffic areas

Porcelain tile is denser and less porous than ceramic, making it exceptionally durable and moisture-resistant. It's an excellent choice for high-traffic areas and rooms exposed to water.

Porcelain tile is ideal for:

• Kitchens
• Bathrooms
• Laundry rooms
• Entryways
• Commercial spaces

Not sure which is right for your project? Our flooring specialists will help you compare both options and recommend the best fit for your needs.

What tile size should you choose?

Tile size has a major impact on the finished look of your space.

Large-format tiles create a clean, modern appearance with fewer grout lines, helping rooms feel larger and more open.

Medium-sized tiles remain one of the most versatile options and work well in nearly any room.

Small-format and mosaic tiles are popular for shower floors, backsplashes, and decorative accents, adding texture and visual interest.

We'll help you select the right tile size based on your room dimensions, layout, and design goals.

How does tile shape influence your design?

Today's tile comes in far more than traditional squares. Popular shapes include:

• Square
• Rectangle
• Subway
• Hexagon
• Penny round
• Chevron
• Herringbone

Rectangular tiles are perfect for creating wood-look flooring, while geometric shapes add personality and modern appeal. Whether your style is classic or contemporary, the right tile shape can transform your space.

What tile color and finish work best?

Tile flooring is available in nearly every color imaginable, making it easy to complement your home's style.

Light-colored tile helps rooms feel brighter and more spacious. Medium tones provide warmth while hiding everyday dust, and darker colors create bold contrast and sophistication.

Many homeowners also choose wood-look, marble-look, or natural stone-look tile to achieve the appearance of premium materials with the durability of porcelain or ceramic.

The finish you choose is equally important.

• Glossy finishes reflect light and create a polished appearance, making them popular for walls and backsplashes.
• Matte finishes offer a softer look and better traction, making them ideal for kitchens and bathrooms.
• Textured finishes provide additional slip resistance for outdoor areas and wet spaces.

Our experienced team can help you select the ideal combination of color, finish, and style for your home.

How do you clean and maintain tile flooring?

Tile is one of the easiest flooring materials to maintain. To keep your tile floors looking beautiful:

• Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt
• Damp mop with a manufacturer-approved cleaner
• Clean spills promptly
• Periodically clean grout lines
• Use furniture pads to protect the surface
• Place mats at entryways to reduce tracked-in debris

With proper care, quality tile flooring can provide decades of dependable performance.
