One of the biggest mistakes people make when tiling their homes? Using the wrong tile in the wrong setting. Tiles may look similar, but their intended use makes all the difference when it comes to longevity, safety, and appearance.

Indoor tiles: These are generally lighter, smoother, and designed for temperature-controlled environments. They are ideal for living rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms. Their finishes prioritize aesthetics and comfort.

Outdoor tiles: These must be weather-resistant, textured for grip, and resilient to temperature swings, UV rays, and moisture. They are often thicker, more durable, and specially designed to prevent slipping when wet.

How to tell the difference: Look for manufacturer labels and slip-resistance ratings. Also, check for frost resistance if you’re in cooler regions. At Taha Ceramics, our experts will help you identify the right material for each use.

Common risks: Using indoor tiles outdoors can lead to cracks, fading, or dangerous slips. Outdoor tiles indoors may be unnecessarily rough or bulky.
