White glass subway tile VS white porcelain or ceramic
Comments (2)Oceanside Glass Tile has a true white glass tile (White Non-Iridescent #101), solid white all the way through. Very glossy. Page 4 on the pdf below: http://www.glasstile.com/pdf/spec-sheets/Muse.pdf They are available in many different sizes....See MoreLooking for porcelain tiles that look good with marble vanity top
Comments (0)New white powder room vanity has a carrera marble countertop and I can't find a porcelain 12x24 floor tile that looks good with it. Can I do a porcelain faux marble floor or is that too much pattern? Floor tiles seem to turn darker and while I will be changing the bathroom high hats to brighter LED's, can anyone suggest a tile that will not be too busy or dark?...See MoreDoes decent looking matte or cement looking porcelain tile exist?
Comments (21)I'm repeating this because I accidentally posting it on your other thread: Corinne Masterson I responded to your other thread about looking for concrete-looking tiles. The Emser Hangar and Emser Uptown were not expensive at all! I got 12 x 24 Emser Uptown Sugar Hill for my shower walls and ceiling (steamer), and bigger tiles are usually less expensive. I got a 2" x 2" for the floor, and those tend to be more expensive, but it's a small area. For my Dad's house I got Hangar Sand 12" x 24" for the bathrooms floors, and a darker Hangar color for 2" x 2" shower floor. The tile cost is one thing, but skill, experience and pro-labor is another. My tile pro is so fantastic, he build my steamer, installed a very $$$$ entire linear mosaic wall, plus the 12 x 24 field tile walls and ceiling in my master; and believe me, I am not worried about waterproofing problems with him. AND he was able to make all the super-cheap Home Depot tile look like a million bucks in my 3 upstairs bathrooms he remodeled. The pro that you hire for the installation is more important than the tile you choose IMO. Cheap tile + cheap installer = a disaster of waterproofing problems, lippage, horrible layout, yucky and uneven grout lines, sliver cuts; don't do it!! Cheap tile + excellent/expensive installer = great for any bathroom: upstairs/ kids /guest /rentals /master: If the tile you like just so happens to be cheap, such as from HD or Lowes that's fine. An excellent installer will make it look wonderful! Seriously, my awesome installer was totally fine with HD tile for all our upstairs kids'/guests' bathrooms, and it all looks beautiful. And again, no worries about waterproofing when you hire an experienced pro and pay them for their skill and expertise. Expensive tile + cheap installer = so sad; you buy this lovely, beauitful, expensive tile, and then a hack installer ruins it and you get a disaster of waterproofing problems, lippage, horrible layout, yucky and uneven grout lines, sliver cuts; don't do it!! Expensive tile + excellent/expensive installer = the best of both worlds. We bought a very expensive mixed glass/marble/porcelain mosic for an entire wall of our master shower and the tile pro I hired did an excellent job installing it. There were some issues with the tile I selected, but in the hands of a real pro, it can all be handled. The reason I didn't type "expensive installer," is because "excellent/expensive" is the better description. I had an expensive hack trash my bathroom. Expensive doesn't always mean excellent. That's another story......See MoreMedium brown porcelain wood-look (oak?) tile?
Comments (4)Hi Patricia! We live in Houston and are in the process of replacing hardwoods that were ruined in a house flood while we were on vacation (AC problem). We have hardwoods throughout (upstairs and down) that were ruined. I would love to re-install wood floors, but with a pool, kids, pets...I'm just not sure it is practical? Wood-like tile feels like the next best thing? I'm having a hard time getting on board with LVP because of the "plastic" factor but guess I'm open for ideas since it's a bit of a fresh start. My style is transitional leaning towards traditional. Our house is pretty open and we're wanting to do the whole floor in the same finish. Thanks!...See Morekculbers
