Tiling Tips: Advantages
Why select tiles and not some other material?
Aesthetics
Tiles come in every style to cover every theme and every designers vision. There is no limit to the possibilities that can be achieved with tiles.
Hard wearing
Correctly specified tiles will last a lifetime. On walls or floors, tiles are considered almost indestructible, if you select the right ones.
Easy to clean
An impervious surface, glazed tiles make the easiest finish to clean. Tiles themselves are unable to sustain mould growth or dust mites. It is unnecessary to use dangerous cleaning chemicals, which helps to save our environment.
Attractive
Always an attractive, beautiful finish, complementing any decor.
Fire Proof
Tiles cannot burn. After all most are "fired" at 1200C.
Resistant to chemicals
All glazed tiles are resistant to most common household chemicals. Some are tested to withstand the most corrosive chemicals any laboratory can dish up.
Low allergy
Tiles are a natural product. They are inert and unlike many "plastic" chemical finishes, will not give off cancer forming fumes.
Stable room temperature
In the winter months, tiles absorb heat during the day and release it during the cooler evening. Acting as a heat bank, tiles will save you money. During summer months, tiles are cool to touch.
