Cement Floor Tiles

Concrete floor tiles can turn just about any space into a magazine-worthy snapshot. They can transform a boring floor from blah and outdated, to incredibly stylish, right on trend, and one of a kind. But they aren’t just all show. Cement tiles are resistant to water damage and scratching, and are far more durable than hardwoods or ceramic tiles.

If you’ve browsed through dozens of décor magazines, design blogs, and Pinterest boards and are ready to bring concrete tiles into your home or business, keep reading to learn more about this top trend and how to place your custom order.

What Are Concrete Tiles?

Concrete floor tiles get their unmatched durability from their age-old recipe of marble powder, cement, sand, and color pigment that is poured into molds for shaping and then compressed under 2,000 pounds of pressure. They typically aren’t machine manufactured on a large scale, but are each made by hand, by a talented artisan with generational ties to the trade.

How Are They Different from Ceramic Tiles?

The main difference between concrete and ceramic tiles is, unlike ceramic tiles, the design of cement tiles isn’t painted on top of the tile, but is a solid part of the tile itself. Ceramic tiles are made with color pigments on the surface and topped with a glaze. The fact that the design is applied to the top of the tile is what causes ceramic tiles to scratch and fade. The manufacturing process of concrete tiles is what gives them their strength and resistance to the typical wear and tear you see on ceramic tiles.

Why Choose Concrete Tile Floors?

In addition to being one of the most durable flooring materials on the market, concrete tiles are also stain, water, scuff, and fade resistant. History has shown us that concrete tiles hold up far more nicely than ceramic tiles, and are simply superior when it comes to longevity.

Tile Cement Floor Vs. Hardwood Floors

Hardwoods are beautiful and go with all different styles of homes, but are high maintenance and need to be refinished every handful of years. Cement floor tiles don’t ever need to be refinished, and they don’t show scratches, scuffing, and fading like hardwoods. Cement tiles are great for every room in your home, including high-traffic areas, and are practical and cost-efficient for a busy commercial space.

Here are (some of) the benefits of concrete floor tiles:

Unmatched Versatility

Concrete floor tiles can fit just about any room, unlike the standard squares and rectangles you’re used to with conventional tiles. You can create any look you want, including standard repeating patterns, or create unique kaleidoscope designs or one-of-a-kind emblems. With cement floor tiles, you’re also not limited to a small pool of colors to choose from. You can create your very own custom color and color palette to fit your home. Granada Tile offers hundreds of colors to choose from, including natural tones, soft hues and vibrant colors.

Earth-Friendly

Concrete floor tiles are made with natural, often recycled materials, and don’t cause a lot of product waste or emit toxic fumes into the environment. Additionally, the durability of cement floor tile reduces the need for replacing old, damaged tiles since they age very slowly. And even when they do need to be replaced, they can be recycled.

Budget-Friendly Options with High Class Style

While concrete floor tiles look incredibly stylish and high-end, they can accommodate just about any budget. You can find cement tiles as simple and as intricate as you need them, offering a wide range of prices available. Check out our vast cement tile collections!

Strength and Durability

Due to the manufacturing process involving concrete, marble powder and two tons of pressure, cement floor tiles can withstand heavy usage beautifully. You will find that your tiles don’t chip, crack or scratch like other tiles do.

Are Concrete Floor Tiles Cost-Effective?

Besides being able to fit almost any sized budget, cement tiles are a cost-effective product because of their lasting power and value. While ceramic and porcelain tiles may cost less upfront, they will almost always require some sacrifice to be made over their quality and versatility of design options.  Also, because you can create custom concrete tiles to fit your specific space, you can often reduce labor time and cost for installation by reducing the amount of tile cuts and maneuvering required with standard tiles.

Tips for Installing a Tile Cement Floor

Concrete floor tiles can be installed as DIY project. However, it is advisable to hire a professional because tile installation Is an art.

For example, cement tiles are heavier than ceramic tiles. They should be sealed prior to grouting to prevent grout stains on the tile, and should be sealed again after installation. Also, there are different types of sealers depending on if you prefer a shiny finish or a matte finish. When installing cement tile as your flooring option, we recommend a matte sealer to reduce the slip-hazard.

Due to concrete tile’s moisture-resistance and durability, cement floor tiles can be used in just about any space in your home, from the shower to the kitchen. Avoid putting them outdoors in a four-seasonal climate with freeze-thaw cycles to prevent damage.
