Tile Installation in Sault Ste. Marie, ON
Tile works well on floors, in showers, and as backsplashes. This page explains the choices and the basics to know.
Floors, Showers and Backsplashes
Tile floors handle water and wear well, while shower tile needs careful waterproofing behind it. A backsplash adds colour and protection above counters and sinks.
Porcelain vs. Ceramic
Porcelain is denser and absorbs less water, so it is often chosen for floors and entries. Ceramic offers a wider range of colours and patterns, often used on walls and backsplashes.
Heated Tile Floors?
Bathroom tile can feel cold underfoot in a northern winter, which is why many people ask about heated tile floors when they request a quote. Ask about it when getting quotes, so the question is covered before tile is chosen.
Grout and Waterproofing Basics
Grout fills the gaps between tiles, and sealing helps keep water out. In showers, waterproofing behind the tile matters just as much as the tile itself.
