Is nice to havd a seamless piece.

But for tiles ......

Pro

1. Cheap
2. Can replace individual piece, if cracked

Cons ...

1  Cleaning the grout
2. Poor workmanship can csuse tiles to dislodge.

yeah i know,
and also please have a GGOOOOOOD conversation bout the height of  kichen top!!
the reno guy misunderstanding the height difference between kitchen basin and the cooktop place, (initially the height we discussed was before shifting the basin and the cooktop ) and after we changed our mind cause we have to redo the kitchen top due to cracking , the guys didint shift both place ,  and basin and cooktop ended up to a similar height ,  more suck! bangwall.gif
