Guys, I'm planning to renovate my new condo and one of the thing that I wanted to do is changing the tiles of the bathroom.
I've been googling around, check Goucerra, white horse, feruni and mml website, went to few showrooms. Most of the tiles that I like is made of ceramic.
I wanna know if ceramic tiles suitable to be used in bathroom? Been reading that ceramic tiles is more porous and tends to absorb water, so I'm worry if it will cause water leakage or crack.
Pls advise and thanks.

Bt I read thru and ceramic is more porous, so absorb more water. Over time won't cause issue?

QUOTE(hushymushy @ Jun 9 2015, 10:33 AM) actually ceramic tiles are ok for floor and bathing area, just need to make sure water proofing has been done properly for wall tiles, usually the water just splash on it and then the water will flow down to the floor for the floor, if you have ponding and water is not flowing to the drainage hole, then that needs to be fixed Okok..so as long as water proofing is done nicely, it doesn't matter much if it is ceramic or porcelain tiles being used? How about for kitchen top? Advisable to use ceramic tiles for kitchen top or porcelain will be better? Thanks...
