QUICK TIPS
Tile Kitchen Countertops
Tile kitchen countertops can make a
decorative statement. Decorative tiles are often used for trim or
backsplashes. They may feature raised, recessed, or painted designs. There
are three main types: ceramic, porcelain, and quarry. Ceramic tiles are
made from pressed clays with a matte finish or a glaze of metallic oxides
and ceramic stains.
Porcelain mosaic tiles are baked at a higher temperature, which makes them
thicker. Their color also goes all the way through the tile, rather than
just covering the surface.
