How to Choose Porcelain Tiles for Australian Homes

Porcelain tiles are a favourite for Australian homes because they handle heat, traffic and moisture well.

## Consider finish and slip rating
Matt and textured finishes are safer for wet areas. Look for R10+ ratings in bathrooms and outdoors.

## Size and layout
Large formats reduce grout lines but need a flat substrate. Talk to your tiler about substrate prep before ordering.

## Colour and light
Lighter tiles bounce light in apartments; darker tones ground larger rooms. Bring samples home and view them in natural light.
