Slate Tile Flooring | Durable long lasting stone tile flooring for your home

Slate tile flooring is often preferred over ceramic and porcelain tiled surfaces. Besides being quite rugged and suitable for heavy usage without concern, it can be used even under damp and wet conditions. If you’ve ever tried walking on wet ceramic or porcelain tiles, you’ll know just how dangerous those slippery tiles can be. With Slate tile flooring, you won’t have to worry about it at all.

Besides its ruggedness, some people prefer the natural random and unique look of Slate tile flooring over the repetitive man-made patterns of ceramic tiles. Even though we’re talking about natural unrepeatable patterns, you’ll still be able to choose the size and shape of your tiles, as well as of the Slate tile flooring style you prefer. In the end, you can rest assured your floor will have a uniform look, although with slightly random variations.

Laying down a slate tile floor isn’t any harder than installing any other tiled floor. Having the tiles, underlayment (if required) and thin set as well as the rest of tools you probably already have in your toolbox, such as an hammer, a trowel, sponge and bucket, spacers – and the always important measuring tape – is all you need to start laying it down on the floor. It won’t take long for you to stand and admire the work you’ve just done. With the proper care and maintenance, your "Slate tile flooring" will be able to withstand dozens of years of use and abuse.
