Ceramic vs. Porcelain
Both are durable, both are waterproof. The difference comes down to density, hardness, and where you install them.
Ceramic Tile
- More porous - best for indoor use
- Easier to cut, good for DIY-adjacent layouts
- Lower cost per square foot
- Ideal for bathroom floors and walls
- Not recommended for outdoor or heavy commercial use
Porcelain Tile
- Denser and harder than ceramic
- Frost-resistant - suitable for outdoor spaces
- Higher PEI rating for heavy traffic
- Available in large-format slabs
- Best for kitchens, mudrooms, and commercial floors
Why Tile?
Most Durable Option
Tile outlasts every other flooring material. Properly installed porcelain tile in a low-traffic area can last 50 or more years.
100% Waterproof
Tile is the only fully waterproof hard flooring option. Ideal for bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms, and basements.
Low Maintenance
Sweep and mop. No refinishing, no sealing required on glazed ceramic and porcelain. Grout sealing every few years is all it needs.
Handles Heat
Tile works with in-floor radiant heating systems. It transfers heat more efficiently than wood or vinyl, lowering heating costs.
Hypoallergenic
Tile does not harbor allergens, mold, or bacteria. The cleanest flooring option for households with asthma or allergies.
Huge Design Range
From subway tile to large-format 24x48 slabs, mosaic patterns to wood-look planks. Nearly unlimited design possibilities.
