Q: What tiles are suitable for a fireplace hearth?

• <div><p>You can, in theory, tile your fireplace hearth with most tiles. However just because you can, doesn&rsquo;t mean you should. For example, it&rsquo;s much better to use unglazed tiles because glazed tiles are more resistant to cracking under extreme heat. Porcelain is more heat-resistant than ceramic, but you can still design the hearth as you like by putting the most heat-resistant tiles directly under the fire and, if it matches your style, add more decorative tiles further from the center of the fire. </p></div>

Q: Can I tile a shower myself?

• <div><p>Yes, you can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-tile-shower.htm">tile a shower</a> as a DIY project, and you can save hundreds of dollars in labor costs by doing so. However, you&rsquo;ll need to rent or buy quite a few tools and supplies for the job, including a saw, tile nippers, and a new shower pan. In terms of the work itself, you should be prepared to tackle a variety of different tasks, including measuring and ordering materials, removing old tile, waterproofing the wall, adding rows of tile, grouting, and more. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to hardscape?

• <div><p>Most hardscaping projects will take a professional between two and seven days, although the timeline can vary widely based on the specific project. For example, a pro can tackle landscape curbing or laying down a gravel path in just a few hours, whereas a paver patio or deck construction can take several days, including the time for footers or concrete slabs to dry. If you&rsquo;re tackling a simple hardscaping project yourself, expect it to take one to two days to complete.</p></div>

Q: Where can I buy natural stone tiles?

• <div><p>You can purchase natural stone tiles from your local home improvement store or stone distributor. </p><p>Simply put, natural stone flooring is a high-end style that outlasts its wood and carpet counterparts. After finding a style you love, a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/stone-flooring/">stone flooring company near you</a> can help source and install them for a reliably clean look. </p></div>

Q: What lasts longer: quartz or granite?

• <div><p>Quartz is more durable than granite, so it should last longer. However, it does have one weakness: It can be damaged by extreme heat, so exercise caution with cooking pans. Granite is durable, but it&rsquo;s also porous, which invites stains when liquids are left sitting on a countertop. With this in mind, clean up spills promptly and reseal the countertops every year. Beyond that, granite can be damaged by a high-impact blow. </p></div>
