Not so often in the room you can find marble tiles for flooring. This material, primarily due to its high cost, is not in special demand for the current market, but there are still some interesting features that affect practicality of the product. Like any other product, this one has its drawbacks, this is also important to consider. That is, it is imperative to study all the most important points in order to understand whether it is worth using marble as a floor covering, or whether it is better to give preference to some other material.
The main positive qualities include:
- High reliability of the product - marble is one of the most dense floor coverings, to which even the most serious mechanical loads will not harm. With a well-prepared surface on which marble is located, the coating will serve an incredible amount and will not lose its original appearance over time;
- Wear resistance - abrasion even after a lot of time the marble does not exactly threaten. Everyone knows that natural and high-quality material will wear out for a very long time. In practice, after ten years of operation, the tile loses no more than 0.5 millimeters;
- Resistance to high humidity. Even with constant contact with water, the coating will not deteriorate. That is, this material is great for a bathroom, where it will last more than a dozen years;
- Beautiful appearance - like any other natural material, this one looks very impressive, especially with proper and regular care. Marble harmonizes with the classics just perfectly, but use in other interiors and trends is not ruled out.
