Tiles make an excellent choice for floor surfaces, offering endless combinations of size, texture and colour options. Plus they’re easy to maintain while being resistant to moisture and stain build-up.

Choose Aurees Tiles with patterns like diamonds to visually expand rooms or basket weave for classic appeal in any space.

Durability

Tile is one of the most durable floor options available, as it resists staining and wear and tear without becoming damaged or worn down from heavy traffic. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have strong impact resistance so may not be suitable in areas where heavy objects are frequently dropped.

Tiles are also an excellent option for high-moisture areas such as bathrooms and kitchens because they don’t absorb liquid easily, making them suitable flooring options in these spaces. Glazed ceramic and porcelain tiles may work, while natural stone options also work well in these settings.

Slip-resistant tiles can help keep your family safe in the bathroom or mudroom. These types of tiles feature a rough surface that creates good grip for improved stability, as well as several colour choices to meet all of your design needs.

When shopping for tiles, pay attention to their PEI rating to gauge how well they will hold up against wear and tear. Ceramic and porcelain usually boast the highest ratings but other materials like travertine may prove just as durable. You could also select natural stone floor tiles which add character and style to your home; these might require stronger framing to prevent cracking.

Styles

Tile comes in many different sizes, shapes and hues that allow you to achieve your aesthetic goals easily. Terra cotta floor tiles pair nicely with Southwest and Mediterranean-inspired homes while quarry tile adds rugged character. Concrete pavers work beautifully for modern or industrial decor styles while ceramic Aurees Tiles in neutral tones like grey is suitable for almost every decor style while white floor tile can open up dark spaces and make them appear larger.

Wood-look tiles are an ideal choice for commercial environments such as offices, steam rooms and bathrooms that see heavy foot traffic. Their wood grain patterns replicate the warm elegance of solid hardwood while being more resilient and water resistant. There’s even an array of textures available from wire brushed to hand scraped so you can achieve just the look you’re after without risking warping or warpage over time.

Natural stone floor tile brings the timeless beauty of nature into your home. Marble-look tile is an iconic choice for master bathrooms, yet also works beautifully in kitchens and entryways. Travertine and limestone tiles add rustic-style homes with organic designs while matching both contemporary and traditional styles beautifully.

Mosaic tile patterns allow you to express your creativity. From black-and-white mosaics for a clean, contemporary design to gold floral mosaics that add a striking glam element, the possibilities are limitless! Large format floor tiles have become increasingly popular thanks to fewer grout lines and uninterrupted surface areas; their size makes them particularly suitable for open concept spaces or rooms needing visual expansion.

Materials

Hard materials used to craft tile floors come from various categories of hard materials. While most fall under the general classification of “ceramic tiles,” there are seven specific kinds of floor tile materials that vary in their material properties, durability and appearance.

Ceramic Aurees Tiles are traditionally constructed from glazed clay that has been fired in a kiln to produce durable and stain-resistant tile flooring, ideal for heavy traffic areas. Their resilience extends even beyond this durability to include stain resistance. Their variety of colours and designs makes them suitable for grid, herringbone pattern, offset stacking or stacking with or without grout – each layout, style and colour choice having an impactful impact on overall room aesthetics.
