Why tile flooring?
Tile is a classic flooring option for both indoors and out. With its natural water- and stain-resistant qualities, tile does some heavy lifting while keeping a beautiful appearance. Floor tiles are also durable, which means they require little upkeep. Our GS Flooring tiles come in many colors and types, which gives you a myriad of options to choose from to best suit your preferences and flooring needs.
Everyone wants gorgeous floors without the hassle of constant maintenance. Tile flooring offers the best of both worlds for commercial and residential floors. Tile is a very cost-effective flooring option that also pays off in resale later down the road. Because there is such a variety in tiles, tile flooring works well in practically any room, from kitchens and bathrooms to hallways and dining rooms.
While all tiles create a new layer of style, each type is better suited to certain locations rather than others. Check out our large selection of glazed and unglazed tiles for your home or business in St. George!

Tile types
One of the wonderful things about tile is that it comes in a huge range of materials, shapes, and sizes. You can have a completely unique look for your floors with a simple tile change. Here are two of the most common types of tile you’ll run into:
Ceramic
A winning choice for many homeowners, ceramic is not as expensive as its porcelain counterpart. Additionally, you can cater to any look by choosing to get your ceramic tiles glazed or unglazed.
Porcelain
Strictly speaking, porcelain is a type of ceramic tile, but porcelain has enough different qualities that the two are often separated. Porcelain is stronger and more water-resistant than ceramic, making it a champion for bathroom and kitchen tile flooring.

How to pick a tile
Price and style certainly play a part in deciding which type of tile to use for your flooring, but three other factors should weigh in on the decision.
Size
The size of the tile you pick will determine how many individual tiles you’ll need to cover your floor. Consider how thick the tile is, how large of a space you’re tiling, and if you want to use other tile types with it.
Color
Tiles can be the focal point of any room, especially if the color of the tile stands out in your interior. Keep in mind that if a tile is glazed, the tile under the glaze can be a different color than what’s on the glazed surface.
Quality and hardness
All tiles are ranked and graded on two different scales. The overall quality is graded based on the number of flaws or imperfections, whereas the rating is based on the tile’s hardness. The harder the tile, the more durable it is but also less comfortable on your feet.
