Practical tips for tiles

Take a look: look at the color and flatness. Generally speaking, the clearer the color of the tiles, the better. See if there are pinholes with the naked eye. Pinholes are easy to accumulate stolen goods.

Second listening: Listen to the density by tapping. The crisp sound indicates that the ceramic tile has high density and hardness and good quality.

Three tests: on-site measurement. Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure, all four sides and diagonals of the tile, to check the size.

Four scratches: look at the quality from the traces. To check the surface quality of the tiles, you can scrape the glazed surface of the tiles with a hard object to judge the surface hardness of the tiles.

Five tests: look at the water absorption rate of tiles. Generally speaking, the low water absorption rate of tiles means that the higher the internal stability of the tiles, the more suitable for spaces with high humidity or moisture content (such as bathrooms, kitchens), and there will be no problems such as black spots. The common way to test the water absorption of ceramic tiles is to pour water on the back of the tiles. The quality of ceramic tiles with slow penetration or even no water penetration is better, and vice versa.
