Q. How eco friendly is tiling a floor?
A. Tiling a floor can be very eco friendly, many of the tile suppliers who we work with use recycled and sustainable products in their manufacturing process.
Ceramic and porcelain tiles are some of the longest lasting floor and wall covering products on the market today. Unlike other hard and soft floor coverings which have to be replaced periodically, professionally installed tiles will last a lifetime. This longevity reduces time, money and resources spent on extracting raw material, manufacturing, transportation, installation, demolition and disposal requirements. Tiling floors using ceramic and stone is actually helping save the planet!
Additionally we always minimize refuse on-site and any waste materials that our guys return from site are separated in to our recycling bins.
