Choose the Right Tile for Home Safety
Tile is rated for slip-resistance so you can make the wisest choice based on where you plan to install the tile in your home. Heavily glazed tiles should not be placed in areas prone to get wet such as entryways, kitchens, or bathrooms because these tiles become very slippery when wet.
Take into consideration the three main reasons slippery tile may not be the best choice for your home.
Children – children zip and run all over the house; it’s what they do! Keep them safe from harmful falls with slip-resistant tile.
Pets – pets can slide on slippery tile and injure themselves too. Make sure the tile flooring you select can accommodate their paws and claws.
Elderly – do you have a family member or loved one who is a senior citizen living in your home? Then you need to make sure your tile flooring is slip resistant.
There are other tiles that are much more compatible for these areas and still provide the stylish look you want for your home.
