Tile Countertops
Tile countertops are an alternative if you’re remodeling your countertops either in your kitchen or in the bathroom. It will give your room a look of unpretentious natural beauty. Use tiles for your countertop and your backsplash. Tile countertops can take abuse from hot pans, and are easy to clean - you also have a wide array of choices in terms of textures, design, price and colors. There are a few drawbacks however - the grout lines can become dirty, tiles can chip or crack, and custom designed tiles which give your kitchen or bathroom that exclusive look can be expensive.
Glazed and unglazed ceramic tiles are used for countertops and are sturdy and durable to take heat from hot pans and other rigors of everyday use. While the tile by itself is durable, the grout between the tiles is porous and soft, and tends to stain. To keep it clean, use a toothbrush or a nailbrush to scrub dirt and grime off. Laundry bleach can be used to remove mildew that forms on the grout. don’t use harsh abrasives cleaners when you’re cleaning the grout as it might scratch and damage the tile.
