Before You Buy Tile

There are many choices of flooring for your home. One of the most diverse and widely used is ceramic tile. E.T. Flooring and Design offers many choices from a simple backsplash to a custom shower and bathroom or kitchen renovation. Our distributors keep us supplied with the latest and newest samples so our customers can be assured that they have the most up to date choices for their renovation or new home build.

Floor tile comes in many sizes, textures, and colors with many desireable qualities that can leave our customers with a floor that is stain resistant, hypoallergenic, and easy to clean providing minimum maintence for ease of living. Floor tile is rated for hardness by the Porcelain Enamel Institute (PEI-3 to 5) for floors. A tile with a rating of 3 is suitable for general purpose or residential install whereas a commercial and institutional tile requires a PEI -5 to withstand the heavier traffic and demands for a commercial setting. A walk through the E.T. Flooring and Design showroom will offer many choices for your consideration.

Glazed wall tile with a rating of PEI- 1 and PEI-2 is available for shower walls, backsplash areas, and any wall where tile is desired for style and beauty. Many choices can have a traditional look as in a Subway Tile, that can be personalized by the many sizes and colors that lend to this design for wall applications. Glass or a mixture of glass with stone or metal can add a bit of bling that picks up the light and makes your tiled wall a point of interest full of slices of reflecting light. The possibilities are many and with the selection of wood plank looking tile available your floor can extend onto the wall to open up any area. Although there is a distinction between floor and wall tile, our customers are confident that the staff at E.T.Flooring & Design will guide them into selecting the right kind of tile for their home project.

E.T. Flooring & Design is a One Stop Shop for all your ceramic tile projects with guidance, knowledge, accessories and a team of installers for a professional, finished look.
