If you are considering having new pool tile installed, you may want to consider porphyry tiles. QLD pool owners are choosing this great material more and more these days, even though it has been around for centuries. In fact, the Romans were the first to use porphyry, and they built highways, some of which are still visible today. This shows you just how durable and long-lasting porphyry actually is. This is just one of the many reasons to use porphyry, as it is incredibly durable for driveways, walkways and even roads and town squares.
It has a high compression breaking point, which allows it to resist wear and tear easily. This also helps resist high temperatures and changes in temps. The high compression breaking point also resists chemicals, which means you can use any type of cleaner and will not risk it damaging the porphyry tiles. One other great reason to use porphyry tiles is that it is slip resistant. Many people are now using porphyry around and in pools because it is safer than other tiles. Porphyry is naturally textured, which offers optimal slip resistance. It is a great choice driveways and walkways, as well as pools and indoor flooring, because it will not become slippery when wet or icy.
One last reason to use porphyry tiles in QLD homes and outdoor spaces is because it is stain resistant and requires little to no maintenance. Stains happen most frequently in kitchens, but can occur throughout the home, and even outdoors. Many people consider using porphyry for their entire kitchen (using different colours) because of its resistance to staining – however, those who realize the benefits of this great material will often choose to have it installed in the rest of the house or in their outdoor space as well.
