Opt For A Tile Dealer That Can Offer You A Wide Choice
Can your tile dealer offer you a wide choice of the best quality tiles available? Tiles can add such an elegant touch to any home and they offer so many advantages to boot: tiling is easy to clean and care for and does not harbour dust, which is of great benefit to asthma and allergy sufferers. In addition, tiling is offered in a wide variety of textures, colours and finishes, so you will always be able to find a tiling solution that suits your style and your living space.
Your tile dealer should be able to offer you all the most popular options too, like monocottura ceramic tiles, which are widely used for covering floors and walls. During manufacture, these tiles are glazed; several specific ingredients can be introduced at the glazing stage to achieve a wide variety of alternative finishes, like gloss, matt, satin/sheen, an anti-slip surface or any of a range of patterns.
Porcelain tiles are more expensive but they are extremely hardwearing, exhibiting very low moisture absorption properties. Full body unglazed porcelain tiles are eminently suitable for heavy traffic areas and industrial applications; their colour is achieved by dispersing mineral oxides throughout the bisque. Polished porcelain tiles get their glossy appearance through a polishing process. Different patterns and finishes can be obtained through the glazing process that this type of porcelain tiles goes through. Extruded or pressed clay tiles are also available and these are not normally glazed, rendering a non-slip surface. Natural stone products like slate and sandstone are cut to size to form tiles of which no two are identical.
