Ceramic Tile Installation in Lincoln, NE

Ceramic is softer than porcelain, absorbs more water and costs less. For an indoor floor that stays dry, a backsplash or a wall, it does everything that is needed and there is no reason at all to pay for porcelain.

Where it is the wrong choice is outdoors, in a freeze-prone space, or anywhere standing water is likely. Water absorbed into a ceramic body that then freezes breaks the tile from within.

Hardline Surface Co. installs ceramic across Lincoln, NE and will tell you which of the two your room actually needs rather than defaulting to the more expensive one.

Check the PEI rating before anything else. PEI 1 and 2 are wall tiles. Putting a wall-rated tile on a floor means it wears through the glaze, and it is a common and completely avoidable error that shows up two years later.

Ceramic Tile Installation FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Ceramic Tile Installation

Questions we hear most often about Ceramic Tile Installation in Lincoln, NE.

Talk to a real person
What wear layer do I need for luxury vinyl plank?
12 mil for bedrooms and low traffic, 20 mil for pets, children and entry halls. Total plank thickness is not the number that matters, and a thick plank with a thin wear layer scratches within a year.
Is water-resistant the same as waterproof?
No. Water-resistant survives a spill wiped up quickly. Waterproof survives a supply line failing overnight. Only one of those is what a bathroom or laundry floor actually faces.
Do I need underlayment over a concrete slab?
You need a moisture barrier. Concrete passes vapour continuously even when it reads completely dry, and skipping it is how floors cup and adhesive fails months after a perfect installation.
What is the best floor for a laundry room?
Sheet vinyl. It arrives in one continuous piece with no seams, and seams are exactly where water reaches the subfloor when an appliance fails.
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.
