When it comes to what materials to use to decorate a house, the first building material that everyone thinks of is ceramic tiles. However, since most people don’t know how to choose bricks, they are afraid of choosing bad ceramic tiles. So let’s learn abouthow to choose the quality of ceramic tiles today! Let’s find out together.
Everyone often hears the technique of looking, listening, three knocking, and testing, so let’s take a look at the steps in detail!
1. Look at the water absorption rate
The water absorption rate can directly reflect the hardness of the floor tiles and the quality of the floor tiles. But one thing to note is that the lower the water absorption rate of ceramic tiles, the better. The water absorption rate test here is for the ceramic tiles in living rooms, bedrooms, walkways, etc.
We can pour water onto the front and back sides of the tiles and carefully observe the water penetration. If you buy polished tiles and the water is sucked in immediately, it means that the polished tiles you bought are of poor quality. On the contrary, It's a good tile.
2. Look at the flatness
Since it is laid flat on the ground or wall, it is necessary to check whether its surroundings are flat when purchasing. If the flatness of the tiles you buy is poor, or you find that the tiles are uneven after laying them, then we will have to lift them up and buy new tiles.
3. Test anti-slip properties
Whether it is used in the living room or bathroom, it is necessary for everyone to test its slip resistance when choosing. When testing, we can add some water to the brick surface and then step on it with our feet to see if the surface is slippery.
4. Look at stain resistance
When we buy, it is necessary to understand its stain resistance. The antifouling test method is actually very simple. We only need to write a few large characters on the surface of the ceramic tiles, wait for a while for the ink to dry, and see if it is easy to clean off. If there are ink marks left, it is not recommended for everyone to buy.
5. Knock
It can be knocked, and the crisp sound indicates that the ceramic tile has high porcelain density and good quality.
6. Weigh
Heavier ceramic tiles mean higher product density. When you are on site, you can weigh the ceramic tiles and feel the weight.
