Beautify your bathroom with the right bathroom tile to match your décor and your budget. When you’re ready to remodel the bathroom in your Jacksonville, Florida, home, it is best to start with the floor up. Art Stones has a myriad of bathroom tiles that make for a great accent piece to update the entire look of your bathroom. With so many options, it may seem difficult to get started. Soft colors on the walls? Perhaps an island paradise theme? The bathroom tile flooring is often the definitive element of your room décor.

Before installing new bathroom tile, there are some things you should consider. First, it needs to be a style that is impervious to water. Will the tile stain if makeup spills? Does it get super slippery when it is wet? Making sure these simple questions are answered to save you a lot of time and money.

Choosing the Best Bathroom Tile in Jacksonville FL

There are different types and styles of tiles to choose from. Ceramic and laminate tiles are among the most popular. Ceramic tiles are designed with a different texture than wall tile because it’s not as slippery. It is usually between 1/2-inch to 3/4 inches thick and can measure anywhere from 4x4 inches to 2-feet-square. You do not have to stick to the traditional square shape. You can choose octagonal and hexagonal as well, which may add a different, fun vibe to your new bathroom.

Different Types of Bathroom Tile

Natural stones cut into tiles are also easy to care for and are very durable but you must have a strong subfloor. Natural stone tends to be extremely slippery when wet and very cold under your feet so this may not be the wisest choice for your bathroom floor tile but if you insist there things that can be done. The stone can be honed (which means ground flat but not polished) or you texture the stone (by sandblasting).

Laminate is very sturdy and easy to clean and maintain. Laminate can appear to be many other materials, wood grain being the most popular. Hardwood floors can be another type of flooring to put in your bathroom. Hardwood floors provide a charm that adds a “cozy home feel” to any room...even the bathroom. You can stain or pain hardwood floors to better compliment the decor of your bathroom.

Vinyl has been one of the most popular and logical choices for a bathroom floor. Vinyl comes in sheets or tiles. Sheet vinyl usually comes in rolls that are 6 or 12-feet wide. If you prefer vinyl tiles then tend to be easier to install and the tiles are usually 12 to 18 inches square. There are also many different patterns.
