Very knowledgeable and helpful.

Really great selection and people. They have good quality and a wide selection that works for all budgets. All their materials are good quality. Yani was incredibly helpful and helped us make some good decisions for our kitchen and washroom renovations. They have a lot more than tiles, including shower and bath systems and hardware. We found a good quality trough drain here too. We are repeat customers and this was the second time sourcing from this fine business.

They were very helpful to us in planning our shower installation. We bought porcelain tiles and a sliding door, both for a very reasonable price. We are considering a pre-fab floor, which is expensive, but promises better performance than the alternative. I would definitely recommend them highly.
Bert Hall
Needed builder tile for a 5 year old home (homeowner had only 41 pieces and I needed about 100). Had no idea what tile it was. The team at Ceramic Tile helped me figure out what the tile was, ordered it in and got me working within 1 business day! Thanks guys!

Matt Heary
Knowledgeable staff, family run business, large sample tiles that I could move around to compare different options in the showroom. Got a great deal on some end of stock tiles for a kitchen project and had enough leftover to tile the front hall!
Rohit Arora
Everyone I’ve dealt with here has made my shopping process enjoyable. They have a great selection of tiles from all the big companies and better prices. Sales staff are willing to work through design ideas with me and can pull out tiles to support my “vision”. Responsive via email, happy to send sample boards home.

If you drop a heavy object on it, it could definitely crack as ceramics or stones would. However, if you have them installed correctly and take care of them afterward, they can absolutely last for as long as you want them to.
Why Choose Glass Mosaic?

It is also moisture and UV rays resistant. Therefore, it neither stains from spills nor fades from sunlight exposure.

Can We Use Mosaic to Surface a Swimming Pool in a Very Cold Climate?
Yes, you can, but you must not discard the water during winter. Instead, place a cover and some inflatables on the surface to prevent the water from turning into ice. Emptying the pool is impractical as the water functions as good thermal insulation and counterbalances the pressure of the encompassing terrain. Lower the water level to approximately four to six inches below the skimmers to empty the pipes connected to the filters, and maintain a constant water level afterward.
Is Glass Mosaic Flammable?
No, glass mosaic is non-combustible and non-flammable. Its rate is class zero.
Can I Use Sanded Grout on a Glass Mosaic Tile?
Although sanded grout’s unevenness makes it harder to clean, the sand itself must not scrape the ceramic or glass tiles. Nevertheless, the installation of ceramic tile, polished stone, metal tile, and glass tile certainly needs the use of non-sanded grout.
Does Glass Tile Show Water Spots?
Streaks, smears, smudges, and water spots can show on any glass surface if they are not earnestly cleaned. If you want to know how it is to have glass tiles in a kitchen, just imagine having to wipe the grease off your glass window, and that should give you an idea.
Can Glass Mosaic Be Used For Shower Floor?
Glass may be showstoppers for bathroom walls. However, glass mosaic tiles are more slippery when wet. That is why they mainly just serve as accents to shower floors.
