A Splendid Kitchen Needs the Best Tiles

The kitchen is one of the most important places of a house. It is constantly being used for some reason or the other. So you need to keep in mind that the tiles that you use for your kitchen not only score high on the style quotient list but also on the durability list and easy-to-clean list.

Don't know where to look? Well then. Keep reading on. We have classified the kitchen tiles into eight different categories. These eight types are very different from each other giving you a very wide range to choose from.

The first type is the laser-cut tile. These might burn a hole in your pocket but are very elegant as they are intricately cut with laser to produce elaborate designs and then are put together like a puzzle.

The next type of tiles is the mirror tiles. They are assembled together to create a mirror backsplash with texture. They are special for kitchen regions such as the buffet counter, service station or butler's pantry. They look very classy and get a ten on ten from me on the style quotient.

The next category of tiles is the diagonal tile. Give your ordinary tile a spin by placing it diagonal. These might be more expensive than normal tiling as you will need ten percent more tiles to complete the tiling. But then, they are also include more intensive labor as they require more cuts at the top and the bottom, so don't hesitate if the installer may bit up the price by a little.

The next in this list is the large-pattern tile. We all know how the new big thing is big and bold patterns. So why not place it in your kitchen? Many companies produce over scale patterns that can be customized to repeat, much like wallpaper. Keep in mind to space out your wall pattern to even out the look of the whole place.

Then we have my personal favorite, the subway tiles. It is used in the subway stations worldwide and is like a timeless beauty. It can possibly not go wrong. Don't want to tile these the usual way? Try tiling them up all the way to the ceiling to give a classic and modern look.

The next type of tile is known as the herringbone tile. These tiles help in adding texture to your kitchen. These tiles can be purchased on a mesh baking which means you won't have to lay out each and every piece.

The next tile is the specially shaped vitrified tiles. This is exactly what you think it is. It shouts of innovation as it pushes you to think of different shapes of tiles. Square is ancient. Let's see how well you learned your shapes in kindergarten. You should face no problems in trying to find a manufacturer nearby to your house.

Last but not the least is the custom mosaic tile. If you have the budget for it, these look stunning.

Countertops That Will Transform Your Kitchen Into a Sanctuary

One of the best places in the home to make into a sanctuary is the kitchen. Homeowners and guests gravitate to the kitchen as a place of warmth and comfort. Revamping your kitchen to provide you with even more comfort as you prepare meals and congregate around the table for conversation is one of the best home improvements you can make.

The countertop is where you and other family members will prepare meals. Great countertops can inspire great meals. The materials you choose for countertops can set the tone for the design of the entire kitchen. Professional design teams have great ideas for you to consider as you choose countertops for your kitchen.

Granite Countertops Provide Protection, Durability, Elegance

Granite countertops, crafted from natural stone, come in many colors that can blend with the color scheme that you have chosen for your kitchen. The durable, polished surface is highly resistant to germs as well as household chemicals, so it makes an ideal choice for a kitchen countertop. Sealing the countertops on a regular basis will keep their surface easy to clean and maintain.

Marble Provides Classic Beauty With a Cool Surface

Also a natural stone material, marble gives your kitchen a classic, clean appearance. For bakers, marble is the material of choice. Marble keeps cool longer, since it is not a material that conducts heat easily. Like granite, it is durable, but its surface does scratch easily. It is, however, available in a multitude of colors to create a seamless blend with your kitchen's design.

Countertops from Recycled Materials Help You Save the Earth, One Meal at a Time

For environmentally-minded families, a countertop crafted from materials that have been tossed out in the trash and repurposed as construction material may be the best choice. Countertops can be made from cement that has been recycled, as well as from glass from soda bottles in a variety of colors. Many countertops made from recycled materials, like granite, must be sealed to provide a durable surface that will give years of service. Our design team can give you even more ideas how you can use recycled materials to create attractive and functional countertops for your home.

Soapstone Lends Texture to Your Kitchen Countertops

If you love the feeling you get when you touch mineral talc, you will love soapstone countertops. Like soapstone, they are smooth to the touch. Generally, this material darkens with age, giving a richer appearance to the countertop. Quartz veins in the soapstone add a touch of luxury to this touch-friendly material.

Stainless Steel

For a contemporary, workmanlike appearance in your kitchen, stainless steel will fit the bill. Stainless steel countertops are a breeze to clean. Their smooth surfaces repel germs and resist corrosion from household chemicals. Its streamlined look and neutral color fits well into nearly every kitchen color scheme.
