Porcelain Tile Installation in Lubbock, TX

Porcelain is fired denser than ceramic and absorbs less than half a percent of water by weight, and that single specification is what makes it suitable for wet areas, exteriors and anywhere freezing is possible. Absorbed water that freezes breaks tile from the inside, which is why the number matters rather than being a technicality.

It is harder to cut and heavier to handle, which is part of why porcelain installation costs more than ceramic. Through-body porcelain carries its colour all the way through the tile, so a chip does not expose a pale layer underneath.

Hardline Surface Co. installs porcelain across Lubbock, TX, including large format.

Large format tile needs a flatter subfloor than small tile, and the flattening work can cost more than the tile itself. Any quote without floor preparation in it is incomplete rather than competitive.

Porcelain Tile Installation FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Porcelain Tile Installation

Questions we hear most often about Porcelain Tile Installation in Lubbock, TX.

Talk to a real person
Porcelain or ceramic, which should I choose?
Porcelain absorbs under 0.5% water and suits wet areas, exteriors and freeze-prone spaces. Ceramic costs less and is perfectly good for dry indoor floors, walls and backsplashes.
Why does my tile quote include floor preparation?
Because tile cracks on an uneven subfloor, and large format needs flatter than most people expect. A quote without preparation is not cheaper, it is incomplete, and the cost arrives later as failed grout and lifted corners.
What is the PEI rating and why does it matter?
It rates a tile's surface wear resistance. PEI 1 and 2 are wall tiles, and putting one on a floor wears the glaze through. It is a common and completely avoidable mistake.
What is the difference between SPC and WPC core?
SPC is rigid and handles an imperfect subfloor better. WPC is softer underfoot and quieter. Since very few subfloors are genuinely flat, SPC is the safer choice more often than not.
Can you match my existing tile?
Sometimes. Discontinued lines are the usual obstacle and dye lots vary even within a current product. We will look before promising anything.
