Ancient yet modern. Ceramic tile has been around for centuries, and with today's technology manufacturers have created new design and application possibilities that were not available a decade ago. If you have never used ceramic tile before or if it has been a long time since you have done so, you will be amazed at the wide selection of colors, sizes, shapes and new textures that are now available.
Ceramic tile is a natural product made up of clay, a number of other naturally occurring minerals, and water. Glazed ceramic tile has a ceramic coating applied to the tile body, which gives the tile its color and finish.
Glazed ceramic tile has numerous exceptional qualities:
Durable - A properly installed ceramic tile will outperform and outlast nearly any other floor covering product created for the same application.
Easy Care - Glazed ceramic tile resists stains, odors, and dirt and can be cleaned up with a damp mop or sponge or common household cleaners.
Low Maintenance – Glazed ceramic tile is strong and durable. However, even glazed tiles are somewhat porous, and require care and attention, especially in heavy traffic areas.
Scratch Resistant - Grade III and Grade IV glazed ceramic tiles are extremely resistant to scratching and you never have to worry about a cut or tear like you do with some other types of floors.
Environmentally Friendly - Ceramic tile is manufactured using natural materials and does not retain odors, allergens, or bacteria.
Beautiful and Versatile - Modern ceramic manufacturing technology has created virtually an unlimited number of colors, sizes, styles, shapes and textures that will add rich beauty and character to any room's decor.
Fire Resistant - Ceramic tile doesn't burn nor emit toxic fumes. Even hot kitchen pans or skillets will not scorch or melt the surface of glazed ceramic tile. That can be a comfort when you're actively preparing food.
Water Resistant - Most glazed ceramic tile has a dense body that permits little or no accumulation of moisture. This means spills from common liquids found in a kitchen are not a big concern.
Ceramic tile is a practical and functional choice for your floor that offers you a unique opportunity for self-expression because of its beauty, flexibility and design potential.
Ceramic tile exhibits a versatility of colored glazes and decoration, and can range from simple terra cotta tiles to highly decorated individual ceramic tiles creating intricate mosaics. Your choices are almost endless. Whether it be a simple layout, or a decorative patterned design, ceramic tile is important in defining the character of the home.
Their simple geometric design make ceramic tile easy to design into different sized spaces and in a diverse range of home styles, and explains much of the popularity of ceramic tile throughout history.

"We bought a great big house in Aldergrove 2 years ago. Every part of it needed updating in the worst way. A friend recommended Calvin at Kingston Flooring as a good person to deal with for flooring.
Since the day the very first tile was ripped up and replaced, we have counted on Kingston Flooring every step of the way. They have always worked patiently with us to get just the right flooring option for each area.
Our relationship with Kingston started when I was 8 months pregnant. We phoned Cal and needed the baby's room done NOW. He moved mountains to get that floor done. Now our top floor has the most beautiful high quality laminate with quiet-walk under padding. It can withstand a one year old carrying a baseball bat and dinky cars.
Since then we have done our living room carpet, a staircase, my mother's house in hardwood and are just putting the finishing touches on 1600 sq. ft. of recreational space in the basement. We haven't had to go over budget, and will be calling Cal when it is time to do the ground floor! We have been able to count on the service, the advice and the price every single time. With so many new people entering the building trades these days, it is nice to have a name you can count on."
