Tile is a versatile flooring option that's made with style and performance in mind. In addition to residential tile floors, you’ll find wall tiles, backsplashes, shower and bath tiles, commercial tile, and more at Ches-Mont Carpet One Floor & Home in Parker Ford, Pennsylvania. We offer custom tile work and installations, and we love how this hard surface product creates a durable, water-repellent floor that’s stylish and unique. 

Types of Tile

Tile can be made from natural stone, ceramic, or porcelain. There are other tile materials available, like concrete, metal, and glass, but those are the three main types of tile, you’ll find as you shop. Ceramic tile is light, budget-friendly, and available in a huge range of styles. Porcelain is similar to ceramic in that it is made from clay and other natural materials that are mixed together and fired, but it’s traditionally more durable. Porcelain tiles are often fired at a higher temperature than ceramic, and many tile companies use denser clays to create them. The result is a stronger, fully waterproof tile product that is ideal for busy floors, shower stalls, and even outdoor patios in some cases. Stone tiles are cut from slabs of natural rock, like marble, limestone, and granite. Each stone tile is unique, with its own shading, patterns, and texturing. This creates a completely custom and visually stunning floor in your home. 

Where Can Tile Be Installed?

Tile is a great choice for mudrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens. It repels moisture and stains, and it won’t warp or swell in humidity like hardwood. You’ll also find tile in laundry rooms and pantries, where many homeowners choose to use unique patterns and tile colors to create a distinctive accent. We carry commercial tile and tile that can be installed in outdoor settings as well. You can turn to us for all your tile installation needs, as this type of floor is not usually DIY-friendly.
