Ceramic Tile questions, answered by experts
If you want your ceramic tiles to be evenly spaced and installation to take less time, spacers are a crucial part of the installation process.
Porcelain and granite countertops can be similar in price, but it depends on the quality of the granite. Granite slab installation generally costs $50 to $200 per square foot, while the average porcelain countertops cost $50 to $70 per square foot. High-end granites, like Blue Louise and Costa Esmeralda, cost significantly more than porcelain—especially if you choose a high-end finish—but you can choose a lower-quality stone for a similar price.
When cleaning porcelain tiles, avoid products that contain ammonia, bleach, and other harsh chemicals. Acid-based cleansers can damage the tile, though you can clean them with a diluted mixture of one-quarter cup white vinegar mixed with one gallon of hot water. It is important always to use a soft-bristled brush or sponge, since hard bristles and steel wool can scratch the tile.
Tiling over your existing backsplash is possible with the right materials and preparation. To do this, the existing backsplash must be clean and free of damage. If you’re installing the new tiles with thinset mortar, the thinset will fill in the existing grout lines as you go, so there won’t be any low spots. If you’re installing a peel and stick tile backsplash, you’ll need to add grout to the existing grout lines first to create a level surface.
Natural stone floors, especially pebble-style tiling, are one of the least slippery options for a shower floor. Natural stone has a texture to reduce slickness, and pebble-shaped tiles add more visual and textural contrast while reducing slippage. Vinyl tiles are also designed with anti-slip texture for added safety. If you have a slippery tile, be sure to add a grippy shower mat to reduce the risk of falls.
