Factors to Consider Before Tile Floor Installation

With so many colours, sizes and shapes available in tiles, you can get overwhelmed. They are an attractive and durable option that can boost the curb appeal of your home. Before you choose your tile flooring, consider the following factors:

• Material
Some of the popular tile materials include wood, laminate and marble. If you are looking for more options, visit our website.

• Durability
Before you choose a tile, you must ensure the material lasts long. For instance, ceramic, brick and vinyl tiles are highly resistant to wear and tear as compared to marble or granite.

• Water Resistant
If you are looking for tiles for your kitchen or bathroom you must consider waterproof and stain resistant material.

• Ease of Maintenance
The texture of the tile and the number of grooves on the material indicate the amount of dirt that can get accumulated on it. For stone tile and other expensive options, you would require special cleaner to not erode the sealant or damage the surface.

• Place of Use
If you are planning to install tiles on the front deck of your house, consider terracotta or clay. Not all tiles can be put outdoors as they can get affected by the elements such as dirt and rain.

• Resistance to Chemicals
You must select slate tiles if you are planning to install them in a commercial environment, or in an area where they can be subject to abrasive materials.

Commonly Asked Questions

• How does a porcelain floor tile differ from the ceramic ones?
Porcelain tiles are a specific type of ceramic tile made from porcelain clay burnt on high temperatures. Ceramic tiles, on the other hand, are kiln-fired clay-based. Porcelain is the hardest and strongest commercial tile which is dense and does not absorb water.

• What is the difference between sanding and un-sanded grout?
For larger use sanded grout is used. Un-sanded grout is used on a smaller area to properly pack the joint.

• Are glazed and unglazed floor tiles different?
Unglazed floor tiles are homogenous with the colour running throughout the material. As they do not wear out easily, they are ideal for high traffic areas.

Glazed floor tiles are baked-in with a glass like finish. It protects against staining, dirt and grime, but it can make the surface slippery when wet.

What is Glue Down Vinyl Flooring?

The glue down installation method involves the use of an adhesive to adhere your dryback luxury vinyl flooring to its base. Using an adhesive creates dimensional stability that ensures the flooring maintains its natural characteristics. The glue down method involves two distinct types of adhesives: hard set and pressure sensitive.

• Hard Set — Similar to a broadloom carpet adhesive, a hard set adhesive spreads along the subfloor — which in turn holds the vinyl flooring firmly in place. This is especially important for environments within the healthcare or retail industries that experience heavy rolling traffic such as wheelchairs and gurneys or shopping carts and dollies. As a relatively new adhesive product to the luxury vinyl flooring market, hard set adhesive allows your glue down flooring to absorb a heavy point load, which means furniture and fixtures are far less likely to leave noticeable indentations when removed. Hard set is designed for sheet vinyl, but also works well with vinyl tile and plank.
• Pressure sensitive — As the longtime industry standard, pressure sensitive adhesive allows for an installation process that makes your flooring sturdy, yet easier to replace. Pressure sensitive adhesive is especially suited for the retail and hospitality industries, or those that tend to change up their brand on a continual basis. Pressure sensitive adhesive is ideal for vinyl tile and plank flooring
