Tile flooring has been a popular decorating material for 7,000 years, plenty of time for tile to build an impressive record of durability and versatility. And tile flooring takes to customized designs, unique glazes, and special effects with ease.
One way to create an eye-catching kitchen tile floor or bathroom tile floor is to use subtle gradations in color across the entire floor. Or, you can frame the room's perimeter with floor tiles in a different hue or pattern from the tiles used on the rest of the floor. You can create your own "tile rug" or one-of-a-kind tile floor by taking ordinary stock tiles and setting them in an original pattern. If you have an tile floor for the bathroom or kitchen, set it off with a border of tile insets in the flooring. You can also design a tile floor that combines ceramic tile with other tiles, such as granite tile and marble tile, or wood tile.
How you install tile flooring depends on the tile itself and the surface where it is to be applied... residential kitchen, bathroom, living room or commercial kitchen, bathroom or lobby. Each brand of tile flooring is different, and each tile flooring manufacturer usually includes specific recommendations for use and installation. Many tile floor installations are within the realm of capability for many do-it-yourselfers who can muster the time and patience and ably wield a straightedge, tape measure, and carpenter's level. Specialty tools, such as tile cutters, tile nippers, and trowels, are often sold or loaned by tile flooring dealers. It's wise to order tile flooring for the entire project all at once, plus 10 percent more floor tiles than you'll need to cover breakage and replacement. Tile flooring can be installed over most structurally sound floors, but for new or uneven surfaces, or elaborate tile flooring installations, consider hiring a tile flooring professional for the job.
