Introduction

Few flooring choices combine beauty, durability, and low maintenance quite like Glazed Tile Flooring.

Whether you’re refreshing a single room or updating your entire home, Essex Paint & Carpet can help you find the perfect glazed tile to match your vision.

What Is Glazed Tile Flooring?

Glazed tile flooring is made by firing ceramic or porcelain tiles in a kiln, then adding a protective liquid glass coating before firing again. This glaze creates a smooth, often glossy surface that enhances the tile’s color and pattern while sealing it against moisture and stains.

• Appearance: Glazed tiles come in a vast range of colors, from soft neutrals to bold statement tones, and can be finished in matte, satin, or high gloss.
• Texture & Feel: Smooth to the touch and cool underfoot, glazed tile feels clean and sophisticated.
• Design Variety: Options include solid colors, intricate patterns, stone-look, and wood-look designs—allowing you to match any interior style.

What Sets Glazed Tile Flooring Apart?

Unlike unglazed tile, glazed tiles offer an extra layer of protection against stains and moisture, making them especially practical for busy households. Modern manufacturing techniques allow for sharper, more vibrant patterns, so you can enjoy designer-quality floors without the designer price. The glossy finish also reflects light, helping brighten rooms and make spaces feel larger.

Best Areas of the Home

Glazed tile flooring is ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, laundry rooms, and sunrooms thanks to its moisture resistance and easy cleanup. It’s also great in dining rooms or open-concept living areas where style and durability matter. While it can be used in bedrooms or living rooms, keep in mind that its cool surface may feel chilly in colder climates—though radiant heating can solve that.
