When looking for tile to use on a kitchen or bathroom wall, choose tiles that are waterproof and stain-resistant. Ceramic tiles are a popular choice because they are durable and affordable. These tiles are made from refined clay, mixed with additives and water, and then hardened in a kiln. Ceramic tiles come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and finishes. This tile is glazed, treated with a protective and decorative coating that adds color and an extra layer of water-resistance.
