Unlike many national chain retailers, Ceramic Tile Sales is an employee-owned and operated company. Our smaller size enables us to train employees thoroughly in-house and provide staff members with opportunities to extend their knowledge by attending trade shows, seminars, and workshops across the country. This attention to training and skill development ensures that our employees are the most qualified staff available to provide you with the best possible customer service. That's what makes us one of the top kitchen and bathroom remodeling companies in our area!
Ceramic Tile Sales strives to carry high-quality, current products. Many box stores, however, carry discontinued lines of tile that are commonly referred to as "seconds". This means the tile can be misshaped, the wrong color, or of inconsistent thickness. Ceramic Tile Sales orders your tile at the point of purchase, guaranteeing your order comes from the same tile run. Many box stores purchase multiple tile runs and sell them together, therefore making it difficult for the tiles to match the color and exact size. Contact us when you need ceramic tile!
The term "tile run" refers to a batch of tiles that have been manufactured at the same time. Tiles from the same run will have a consistent thickness and color variation. Tiles from multiple runs will have thickness differences and color changes that can make it difficult to match up. Contact us to learn more about ceramic tile.
The displays in our showroom are a really good representation of the tile you will receive. However, because of different tile runs, it is common to notice some variation. This is especially true with natural stones such as granite, marble, slate, and travertine, which have naturally occurring veins that make them impossible to replicate or predict.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are basically made from the same materials. However, there are some differences. Ceramic tile is generally made from clay that is fired in a kiln. It often has a durable glaze finish that carries the color and pattern. Ceramic can be used on walls and floors, and it is generally recommended for light to moderate foot traffic areas. Porcelain is typically made through a method of pressing, which creates a more solid and dense tile with an exceptionally low water absorption rate. The increased density makes porcelain more durable and the recommended choice for kitchen floors and other high-traffic areas of the home or business.
