Porcelain tile can reduce the amount of energy needed for heating and cooling because of its exceptional thermal mass. This helps moderate temperature swings in your home which means less work for your HVAC system and more energy savings for you.
Unlike many other flooring materials, porcelain tile is inert and therefore is ideal for use with the most modern applications of floor heating and cooling systems; these systems can be used without causing any damage to the porcelain tile flooring.Being composed of natural ingredients such as clays, quartz and feldspars and then fired up to 2,500° F, porcelain tile is 100% plastic free.

Porcelain tile also does not release any bad odors or unhealthy hazardous volatile substances. Porcelain tile is completely PVC and VOC (volatile organic compound) free - that means a healthier home for you. Formaldehyde is known to lead to an increased incidence of asthma. Tile has zero formaldehyde.
Porcelain tile is the perfect choice for bathrooms, mudrooms and the outdoors as it is impervious, spill resistant, and does not absorb water. You'll never have to worry about your floors getting cuts and scrapes again. Naturally scratch-resistant, porcelain tile continues to look good even after years of heavy traffic.
Each series of tile has a photo gallery associated with it. Please take a few minutes to browse and make note of the series name, color and size options. Feel free to call us for more information and pricing. We also carry many more styles that are not displayed on our website. Stop by our showroom daily, Monday - Saturday.

Awful experience!!! Do not buy from this company!! I spent nearly $1800 on tile for 2 rooms in my house from here and was planning on using them for the remainder of my 4,000 sq ft home. My husband is a contractor and has also used their product for many jobs. I came here to return a $38 bag of grout that I needed EXCHANGED for a different color and they refused to do it!!! The man claimed he "couldn't find my last name in the system with this item". Are you kidding me? What kind of customer service is this!! You just lost a loyal customer because you refused to exchange this bag of grout. I am

This is one of the best places to purchase tile. We did a lot of price checking at various places and RI Tile had the best prices. The salesperson we worked with was able to point us in the right direction for matching tile to the granite we had purchased and for helping pick tile for inside the fireplace mantle.

Had to wait for about 10 minutes before someone even acknowledged me. There was one person that was there before me and he was being helped. Couple of meeting of waiting there another employee stoped by the front desk and asked the other customer who was already being helped if he was being taken care off. Did not even look at me. After 10 minutes another employee came by and asked if I needed help. I explained to him that he was the first person to acknowledge me after waiting for 10 minutes. He apologized and helped me find what I needed.
