Porcelain Tile
Everyone we come across literally asks us what the difference is between porcelain and ceramic tile? The answer is easy. They’re both made of clay, are highly durable, and resilient to the environmental conditions in your home. The biggest difference is that porcelain is made with denser material and is heated at a higher temperature when created. While ceramic is honestly an amazing product type, porcelain is revolutionary.

Chipping
The amazing thing about porcelain tile is that body it’s is virtually the same color as its surface. This means that in the event your porcelain tile ever chips or cracks it will be virtually unnoticeable due to the almost identical coloring between its body and façade. Long term wear and tear will go virtually undetected by the naked eye due to its unique design. While chipping will happen eventually on all tile types, porcelain prolongs the strength of your tile and reduces chipping visibility when chipping or cracking occur. Porcelain tile is the ultimate product solution if you’re looking for a long-term investment for your forever home.
