1. Hygiene
One of the reasons to go for tiles and not any other kind of flooring &wall materials is that tiles offer very high standards of hygiene as compared to other materials this is because tiles are odorless, have no chemical emissions and also have high resistance to bacterial growth.
2. Durable
Tiles, as compared to other materials are very durable, once installed they can stay for a long period of time without the need for replacement or repair.
3. Easy to Install
Tiles require little effort to install and this is to say that the procedure is quite easy and doable thus making tiles efficient for use. The procedure is as follows:
Step 1: Install a Cement Board Underlayment if Necessary.
Step 2: Find the Center of the Room.
Step 3: Lay Out the Tiles.
Step 4: Install the Center Tile.
Step 5: Install the Remaining Tiles.
Step 6: Allow the Adhesive to Cure.
Step 7: Mix the grout.
Step 8: Clean the Tile.
4. Safety
When one uses tiles for his/her floors or walls, one is guaranteed safety. This is because tiles are waterproof therefore no water can get into the tiles after installation. Tiles are also fireproof and also resistant to heat this makes tiles very safe this is because tiles can rarely catch fire thus in case of a fire outbreak the tiles will make the fire not spread further.
5.Patterns and Look.
When one uses tiles one has the ability to use the tiles that he or she wants and to form the patterns and designs that he or she wants, thus gives a varied effect and gives the room an aesthetic and versatile appearance.
6.Cost-effective
Tiles are relatively cheap as compared to other materials this is because tiles are long-lasting therefore, once one installs one does not have to incur a high cost of repairing this is because if repair is needed it's not so expensive, maybe one or two tiles will need repair and this might occur after a very long time.
