When it comes to tiles for the kitchen floor, or perhaps the backsplash of a kitchen, there are many different designs and tiles that can be used. However, for an alternate version of a very popular type of kitchen tile, a person may want to consider tumbled granite tile in Folsom CA. The fact is that there are many different benefits that come from this type of tile, and it’s important to understand how this tile differs from standard granite surfaces, such as countertops and backsplash tiles.
The tumbling process allows for a less unrefined or rough finish. This can dramatically change the look of granite and create a look that many people find stunning. In fact, there are times where the tumbling process changes the look of the tile so much, that it barely resembles what most people have come to expect from granite.
The tumbling process also helps to smooth out the finish of the tile, which makes it very easy to keep clean. This is especially important when it comes to tile being used as a backsplash. With a smooth surface, these types of tiles work well when being used in these areas.
There are a few things to consider, however. The first thing to consider is this type of tile is extremely heavy. For that reason, backsplash walls need to be fortified enough to handle the weight of Tumbled Granite Tile in Folsom CA. Another thing to consider is that this type of tile is even more expensive then the prefabricated granite tile that most people have become accustomed to in the kitchen. That’s why many people use this type of tile as an accent on a backslash rather than doing the entire wall with it.
Regardless of if your budget allows for an entire backsplash made of tumbled tile or you’re simply using it for a specific design above the sink or in an alcove above a cooktop, this can be a stunning addition to your kitchen.
