Here are some frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding Porcelain tiles:
Q. What are the benefits of porcelain tiles?
Using porcelain tiles in your space comes with a great number of advantages; here are a few:
1. Porcelain tiles are denser than regular tiles, making them stronger and more durable. This, in turn, results in the tiles being able to withstand wear and tear and heavy foot traffic.
2. The tiles have some of the lowest water absorption rates at less than 0.5%, making them an ideal choice for wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies.
3. They are versatile in nature and can be used in both residential and commercial spaces indoors as well as outdoors.
4. They come with an easy-to-clean surface that can often be cleaned with some water and a mop.
5. The tiles require minimal maintenance.
Q. Which is better–porcelain or ceramic tile?
This will totally depend upon your needs. While porcelain tiles are denser and have lower porosity, they are more expensive. Porcelain tiles are preferred for floors that see heavy traffic, while ceramic tiles are a preferred choice for walls due to their low cost and plethora of designs.
Q. Is porcelain tiling waterproof?
No, porcelain tiles are not completely waterproof, though they are resistant to water. With a water absorption rate of less than 0.5%, these tiles can be easily used in wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies. While not completely waterproof, these tiles absorb very little standing water and almost none of the splashed water, protecting your floors and walls from water damage.
Q. Does porcelain tile break easily?
Porcelain tiles are baked at high temperatures in a kiln, making them robust and sturdy. These tiles are strong enough to withstand intense wear and tear and are a preferred choice for high-traffic zones. These tiles do not break easily, unless something heavy is dropped on them from a great height or if the tiles are dropped at an awkward angle.
Q. How can you tell the quality of porcelain tile?
There are several “tells” of a good quality tile and here are some things you should look out for
1. When laid on a flat surface the tile should lay flat. If the tile lays tilted, it means the tile is warped or has some curvature to it. Such tiles are difficult to install and crack easily since they do not fit well.
2. If the tile is chipped take a look at the layers of the tile. If you can see specks of tan or white, it is not a true porcelain tile. Most porcelain tiles are often unglazed and have a consistent colour that runs from the surface of the tile through the body to the base.
3. Check the diagonals of the tile – they should be equal. If not, the tile will not have equal dimensions and be difficult to install.
The porcelain tiles manufactured by Orientbell Tiles are manufactured using some of the latest technology making them durable and long-lasting.
