Ceramic Floors Refinishing and Repairing
All About: Ceramic Floor Tiles
If you've already renovated a kitchen or are just beginning the process, you know how overwhelming the details can be. Our Fittings and Material Spotlights are quick guides to basic kitchen fixtures and materials to familiarize you with terminology, pros and cons, and relevant reader reviews. Today we look at the pros and cons of ceramic floor tiles:
Overview: Ceramic tiles are made of natural clay minerals mixed together, glazed on one side, and then fired under extreme heat to create a strong, resilient material. You can find them in a glossy or matte finish, usually sold in half- to three-quarter-inch thick four-by-four squares, but you can also find large squares.
Pros: Very durable; dent, scratch, and stain-resistant; huge selection of colors, shapes, and sizes; affordable and very easy to clean.
Cons: Hard and cold underfoot, which can lead to back and leg fatigue if you're standing on it for a long time (which is not unusual during a cooking marathon for a dinner party, for example); slippery when wet; pretty unforgivable when a glass object is dropped on it; and while the tile itself is easy to keep clean, the grout is prone to discoloring.
Installation: Definitely DIY-able, but professional installation is recommended because the process itself is very time-consuming.
How to Clean: Sweep regularly. Damp mop with a mild detergent or vinegar-based solution, and rinse with warm water. For a high shine, wipe dry with a soft cloth.
