FLOORING
Ceramic TileCeramic tile has been used for centuries and offers consumers more options in color, texture, pattern and overall beauty than most other floor covering materials. With new manufacturing techniques today's Ottawa ceramic tile designs are virtually indistinguishable from natural marbles, travertines, slates and other stone products. Glazed ceramic and porcelain tiles are great choices for bathrooms, kitchens, foyers, sun rooms and great rooms in Ottawa. Wall Ceramic Tile Ceramic tiles for walls are normally less durable than ceramic tile designed specifically for flooring. Most wall tile is glazed with a semi-gloss or matte surface. And although you can not use wall tile on the floor you can most definitely use floor tile on the wall. Glazed Ceramic Tile Glazed Ceramic Tile is comprised of two basic elements, clay and water. The surface of the tile is coated with a colored glaze (similar to glass). The glaze is then permanently fused to the surface of the ceramic tile by firing it in kilns at approximately 2000° Fahrenheit, to form the finished product. Porcelain Tile Porcelain tile is made from a blend of fine-grain clays and other minerals to produce a very dense body, which makes it highly resistant to moisture, staining and wear. |
