TAMPA, Fla., Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- When some people think of tile, they only think of blank porcelain squares. But on National Tile Day, the flooring experts at MaintenX International celebrate tile in all its diversity, from carpet to roof.
Tile is one of the most versatile materials around. Facility managers often must decide how best to outfit their spaces to account for a range of factors, from style to customer traffic, and tile provides a range of price points and options.
"Not enough people know about all the different ways tile can improve your commercial facility," said Herman Wilkinson, MaintenX Director of National Service. "When chosen correctly, tile is a long-lasting and attractive solution for many interiors."
Tile is an option for nearly any space in a commercial facility and provides a unique opportunity to change to look and feel of a space without breaking the bank. However, choosing the right type is key.
High-traffic areas call for durable, easy-to-clean tiles that won't crack or stain, like porcelain or cement. Bathrooms are a good opportunity for decorative touches with mosaic tile. While high-end options like marble and travertine can be expensive, there are plenty of lower-cost tile flooring options available. Hard tile, even less expensive kinds, is generally a good value because of its long lifespan and its ability to help create healthier, safer spaces for employees and clients by reducing allergens and a fire-resistant surface.
However, hard tile won't always do. For quieter and softer environments, carpet tiles give the feel and design options of carpet but allow for messy accidents, stains, and wear to be easily addressed with a few replacement tiles.
"Usually people only think of floors when considering tile for their spaces," said Wilkinson. "But walls and roofs are also prime candidates for tiling. Tiles really are an incredible resource for facility managers."
No matter the project, MaintenX's flooring technicians can assess a space's needs and determine the appropriate type of tile for it. For more information about MaintenX and the variety of maintenance services they provide, visit http://www.maintenx.com.
