Glass Tile
The Benefits of Choosing Glass Tile:
One of the advantages of glass tile is that it’s beautiful to look at. Glass tiles provide endless design options, but there are some downsides to consider such as their high cost and fragility. This means that your design options are pretty open, so whatever the vision may be, you can make it a reality. Keep in mind glass naturally reflects light; if you are looking for a brighter and larger-looking space, then the glass tile is the way to go. One of the best features about glass tile is that it is super low maintenance. When it’s time to clean, you just need some window cleaner and cloth. This is why the shower area is perfect for glass tile because soap build up is so common and can easily be wiped away. Finally, glass tile is translucent. Whatever color you choose will show all through the tile, adding a unique layer of depth and dimension to your space.

The Charming Choice: Glass Tile
It’s true that glass tiles have their own set of benefits and drawbacks, but they are still a great option for many things.If you are a DIY type of person, this might frustrate you. For a personalised, high-quality installation that you can be confident in, we recommend hiring a professional tile installer for the job. Glass tiles can be, on average, quite a bit pricier than their ceramic counterparts. With that in mind, glass might make for a better accent than it would for an entire wall if you are on a budget. While glass tiles are super easy to clean, the reflective nature makes it quite easy to spot any imperfections. Fingerprints, dirt, grime, and anything else that makes its way into your bathroom will be more visible with glass. If you don’t regularly wipe down your tiles, glass might not be the best option for you. Finally, the slippery surface of glass isn’t the best for floor use. If you do want glass floor tiles, consider a smaller sized tile with a matte finish to add some traction. You will also want to consider some non-slip sealant to ensure everything stays in place.
Ceramic Tile
The Benefits of Choosing Ceramic Tile:
Ceramic tiles are a great option due to their cost. Glass tiles are more affordable than ceramic, so you can still update your bathroom without breaking the bank. So, ceramic is also an excellent option for those who like to do things themselves. While tile installation can be done by homeowners, ceramic is a much easier product to install than glass. Just be prepared for the amount of work this entails. One of the positives for ceramic is that it will withstand normal wear and tear. Plus, with the right cleaning supplies, you can make your ceramic tile last even longer—and it’s easy to care for. If you are worried about your options, don’t be. There are hundreds of tile colors and textures to choose from, meaning that your space will be highly customizable. Ceramic tile also offers quite a few trim options, meaning that you can add visual interest to your design.
THE DRAWBACKS OF CHOOSING CERAMIC TILE:
Ceramic tile usually feels a little cooler under your feet during the winter time. Adding a rug to the tiled bathroom floor will work just fine. If a rug isn’t your style, you can also consider installing a heated floor mat to eliminate that issue. While we say that ceramic works for do-it-yourself folks, not everyone will feel confident doing that on their own. If you want to be absolutely sure that you’ll love the final result, call Renovo Stone and one of our professionals can handle it. Finally, ceramic tile is handmade. This means that you should expect some irregularities and imperfections when it comes to the final appearance.
