When remodelling or building a home,Be the envy of your neighbours with marble tiles Articles consider using marble tiles instead of traditional wood or vinyl flooring. Marble offers so much versatility and beauty that will make you the envy of your neighbours. So much craftsmanship and quality go into each marble tile that it is nearly impossible not to immediately tell the difference between true marble and knock off marble-look-alike tiles. There are several misconceptions about marble tiles including that they are dark and cold looking. These misconception have led people to purchase cheaper-made tiles when marble can give you the look you deserve at the price you need.

When considering using marble in your foyer or bathroom the one thing that you do not need to worry about is marble's reputation. It has long been used in the palaces of Caesar and in courtyards and government buildings for centuries. Marble is dense and also is completely 100% hypo-allergenic. Marble does not wear out and it keeps its look like the day is was put down. When you decide to put marble in your home or office, consider marble's hundreds of shapes, sizes and colour schemes.

One of the most important choices in putting down tile is what pattern and colour is right for you home? Just like any other type of flooring, marble comes in different colours and patterns and matching the right one with your home will make the difference. If you hear someone complain about the flooring in their home, regardless of the material, it is quite possible that they did not take the time to choose the right look for their house. Choosing this right look is paramount to having a good experience with marble. In the next paragraph, let us discuss a couple of very popular looks that marble provides.

The first type of marble flooring is the dark Emporador marble tiles. These tiles give an old world look with a darker colour pattern. These tiles would be great in a home with bright lighting because the darker colour on these tiles will absorb some of the light. Another type of marble tile to consider is the cappuccino marble tiles. This cappuccino colour is very popular and gives a more subtle colour than the dark Emporador tiles. If you have a darker lit home, these cappuccino colours will make your dark hallway seem brighter and more inviting. Whatever type of flooring you need for your home consider using marble for your next project. Call around to different stores and get quotes for your project. Take a look at the many marble tiles and find the one that you like.
