Common tile materials include ceramic and stone Marble and cement are other materials used for tiles In most homes, ceramic floor and wall tiles are the most common

Ceramic tiles are made by combining clay and silica, which are then fired at high temperatures The firing process gives the tiles a smooth, shiny finish that’s also durable While it's durable and can withstand a lot of usage Once the top layer is chipped or scratched, water can seep through the damage and reach the porous inner layer, leading to mould growth This will gradually weaken the tile over time Once we repair the tile, we seal it to restore its beauty and watertight durability
