There are five elements to consider when purchasing your ideal ceramic tile floor: Size, shape, color, texture and pattern.
Typically, larger tiles can make a room appear smaller, and the opposite is true for smaller tiles. Darker colors will also give the appearance of a smaller space, while lighter colors can open up an entire room.
Ceramic tile comes in a wide variety of patterns and shapes. From rectangular to hexagonal with separate corner inserts, you can create any look that you desire.
Textured tiles are designed for fashion and abrasive tiles are designed for slip resistance, for use in areas that are prone to standing water, such as a pool side area.
The main thing to consider when purchasing a ceramic tile floor is the wear rating of the tile itself. The tile wear rating system is based on a scale of 1 to 4.
