Ceramic VS Porcelain - Before You Buy

[@steventomlin4845]

Thank you for the technical information. I replaced my flooring last year and went with a wood look porcelain from Daltile with a "hand scraped" texture. Not because of any thoughts of increased strength, but because the finish on the individual tiles had so much variation. I love the way they feel under foot.

[@RemodelWithRobert]

Daltile has some great looks!

My name is Charlie Harwood, I am in the process of having my patio tiled. One of the contractors is recommending I put down ceramic tile. BUT after watching your video, it is my feeling ceramic tile would not be wise due to freezing in the winter here in Texas. THEREFORE, based on your information, I am going to use porceline tile for the patio. THANK YOU

Robert, thanks for the information I was seeking. Grout and density were my two questions I had not been able to find answers to. Impressive. 👍🏾

[@joshd7565]

I’ll be completely honest. A salesman at a flooring store has a lot of product knowledge of how it’s supposed to preform but the best people to give you an honest opinion on construction products are the installers that have seen the different products installed over the years 1000 times

[@RemodelWithRobert]

I agree with you 100%. It may not have been discussed clearly enough in this video, but this is my family's business which I have worked in for 20 years. We not only provide the materials, but we started as strictly an installation business so our primary background is the installation side first and foremost. We have handled and installed all different types of products and still install a variety of materials so I do not speak as a salesperson but as a business owner that oversees the entire process and is ultimately responsible for the final results.

@@joshd7565 - Josh, I agree with you a small bit. Although I don’t necessarily agree this is fool proof, it can be helpful. When I read your post, my immediate thought was that you never know the background of the person assisting you. If you are in doubt, ask. That’s what I do and I’m not embarrassed to do so. It’s your home and you want it done right. I’m not an installer nor a salesperson - it’s up to me to do my homework so when I go into a store I have some knowledge of what I’m wanting or thinking about - if the person seems knowledgeable about the products I’ll continue to ask (Did you ever install this type of flooring, countertops, cabinets yourself. If so, what’s your experience with whatever the product is. I find that helpful. I had a fabulous handywoman in Chicago. She told me this is mainly a man’s world but knowledgeable women are out there too. To do a great job, you need the right tools. That means brains as well. Know your stuff.

Be CAREFUL when choosing tile for around wet places - pool, kitchen, and bathroom. One slip on these hard surfaces and you are going to break bones. (I learned the hard way) For kitchen, pool, and bathrooms , if you are going for a hard tile flooring, pick a tile that has a rough, slip resistance surface.

[@anthonyxuereb792]

Very informative, I don't think you left anything out. I have porcelain tiles that have chips along the edge. My only gripe is that the grout looses it's freshness too soon and the tiles loose some of their appeal as a result. I chose a matt finish for the floor tiles and they aren't as attractive as polished ones, I goofed up.

I have a wood floor in my kitchen that is in bad shape. Instead of having it refinished, I'm thinking about having it replaced with wood-look tile. However, the floor was installed before the cabinets, so the cabinets and island sit on top of the wood. Do the cabinets need to be removed so the whole floor can be replaced, or do you just cut around the cabinets and leave the wood that is underneath them? Thanks for all of your great videos!

[@tegannottelling]

Interesting, I stumbled across your video as I was looking for pottery. We deal with various clays all the time and what you say about Porcelain is sort of true. What makes porcelain is the percentage of Kaolin clay or China Clay. This is the white clay body generally from China though other deposits have been found. it can be fired to a very high temp as the clay body won't melt therefore fusing or vitrifying the claybody (fuzing all the particles together to create the low porosity) . It does have a low poursity under 1% generally but in saying that you can get Porcelaneous Clay bodies now that are technically Not porcelain, but a stoneware that has about the same poursity as porcelain. The glazes that you have on the surface of the tiles are the thing you want to consider if you are worried about chipping as they are basically frits with silica/trace elements etc or melted glass for the lay person. The red tile you showed is basically a terracotta or earthenware, it has the highest porosity (About 12% sometimes even as high as 16%of all clay bodies as it will melt before it fully vitrifies. This is due to the iron in the clay body, giving it the colour red (Like rust) but also acting as a flux that will lower the temp the clay can withstand before structural failure.)

[@RemodelWithRobert]

So interesting! The differences you mention are in respect to the fact that porcelain and ceramic in pottery are completely different to that of ceramic and porcelain in tiles, and the terms are not synonymous in what they refer to, standards of measurement, etc.

[@azdoglover7]

Robert, Will it look strange if I do hardwood in bedrooms and wood looking porcelain tiles in the rest of home? They are both in line of vision and did not know if they fight each other being wood types. Any faux pas here?

[@cherylshepherd5602]

Very informative video! My question would be what type or particular recommendation of tile would you suggest for a high traffic/pet area that can be made to resemble genuine woodgrain floors?

[@datsuntoyy]

Where does marble tile fit in? We found a really nice mable tile and bought a single piece to take home and compare. When we got home we noticed it was covered in little scratches. Made us wonder how it would hold up to chairs and dirt. Is there a grading on how scratch resistant a tile is? I'm guessing polished is not the way to go. Secondly, we're replacing our tile because the sewer backed up into the bathroom and just outside. It was considered a class III hazmat spill so all affected tile had to be removed. And ofcourse the bathroom was continuous with most of the down stairs. So with this in mind, being inpart a bathroom, would porcelin be better for it's low absorbtion?

[@RemodelWithRobert]

Those little scratches are pretty typical for marble as it is a relatively soft stone. I would recommend either porcelain or ceramic over marble for most people as they are much less maintenance than marble is. I think either of those would work well for your bathroom.

[@liverbird8484]

I am considering porcelain tiles for my kitchen countertops. What are your thoughts on porcelain tile for countertops? Secondly what are your thoughts about concrete countertops… for an island? In terms of durability and food safety.

[@RemodelWithRobert]

I prefer solid slabs over tiles in general for the elimination of grout lines but I have seen some very nice porcelain countertops. Concrete countertops can look really cool if you like more of an industrial look. They are very heavy products and need to be properly sealed, especially if it is an area where any food is being prepped.

I appreciate your videos, Robert. They're always informative. Do you have any advice for someone like me, who has purchased a new home from a developer & construction is beginning next month? The porcelain flooring I selected is fairly high-end and I asked that it be done in a pattern I saw in a stunning model home recently (2 rows of the same 12x48 tile to every 1 row of the same tile in an 8x32). My question: I'm already worried the installer may not do it correctly. Am I wrong to feel that way? Did I pick a pattern that's too complex? And how do I try to ensure the job is done as well as possible without being able to be there and watch what the installer is doing? Thanks!

[@RemodelWithRobert]

I certainly understand your concern with making sure that it is installed correctly with it not being a completely standard pattern. I would encourage you to try and have some involvement when the job starts if possible so that you can confirm that with the contractor/builder as it starts. We usually have our clients present for the beginning of the job to verify that the product is the right style and color before it gets installed, but also to verify the direction they wanted it to run, pattern, etc. Hope that helps and good luck!

That is not a straight forward answer. The thickness isnt necessarily an indicator of overall durability or quality.

Thank you, great info 👍🏽 I’m installing polished porcelain 24x24 tiles with ardex sanded Grout (no sealer). You mentioned to seal the grout 28 days later after the grout has cured. 1)does the polished porcelain tiles need to be seal too and 2)if it’s just then grout that needs to be sealed, how do apply the sealer? The ve heard some people paintbrush the sealer into the grout lines.

[@jenniferguider9620]

i laid tile all over the upstairs of my house. the tiles were sealed, i used a grout that the color worked for the rooms and tile. However, I have house cats and they pee and puke on stuff and the floor. If you've had had cats and cat pee, trust me, you want to seal the grout. I would NEVER get the smell out if the grout weren't sealed. At any rate, I went with a concrete sealer colored for my tile for the sealer. I used a very small paint brush to apply the sealer. Extremely time consuming but that amount of effort was completely worth it. Worked fantastic. I will say that it adhered to the tile itself. We had to get one of those commercial floor polishers. There is a polishing pad that did a pretty good job of getting the concrete sealer off the tiles. A lot of work I agree but I love my floors. We are soon going to install 100% waterproof flooring in the 3 bedrooms, again . . . cats.

Porcelain plates are so heavy. Therefore I use glass plates. I prefer lighter tiles. How much is the weight difference between porcelain and ceramic normally? I would then prefer ceramic. Maybe ceramic will also breathe better and still keep water away?

Tile is a great option if you are looking to get rid of the carpet. Keep in mind, it will be colder, harder, and louder than the carpet. However its pretty low maintenance.

[@RemodelWithRobert]

I would contact whoever you purchased the tile from as well as the installer so that you can make sure to get the specific directions for that product and verify the install process was followed correctly. That does not sound like a normal situation for a porcelain tile. If it is a true encaustic tile, something with the sealer could be off.

[@RemodelWithRobert]

Without going into the technical nuances, vitrified tiles are a clay and silica composite tile with a lower porosity than the traditional ceramic. Porcelain tiles can be categorized this way as well as tiles that are explicitly labelled this way. Long story short, denser and less porosity than ceramic. Generally has a different look and texture from ceramic tile as well. Hope that helps

Just never seen them here in the US or perhaps theyre known as something else? Just curious to hear what your thoughts are. Thanks again though and hope I can figure this out :)

[@robertdepesci3418]

I'm having an issue with my ceramic tile. I built a new townhome and a few days ago my ground floor tile was pushed up from the ground and cracking in about 15 or so tiles. I first noticed the rising of the tile months ago but then the other night it literally cracked and sorta pushed up from the ground. Although I'm out of warranty for the tile the warranty manager said the tile was defective due to some moisture absorption issue. The tile manufacturer is going to replace all the tile and have it installed. Does that sound right to you? a google search said it could possibly a leaking plumbing issue from the ground causing the ground to swell. I told the warranty manager and she quickly dismissed that idea. She says it's because of defective ceramic tile that is absorbing moisture and making it expand. From casual observation/untrained eye it appears to look dry and not very expanded to me. I was wondering what you thought. Thanks for any input you share.

[@RemodelWithRobert]

Both could be true. If they have a known defect and are replacing it for you then there must be a legitimate issue the manufacturer is acknowledging. However, it is also possible that there is an issue with moisture in the slab for it to have affected a specific area. It is easy enough to do a moisture test on the slab before a reinstall and may be worth having just to be safe. If a basic moisture meter shows any signs of concern then go from there.
