Bathrooms are high-moisture environments, so choosing the right tile is essential for durability, safety, and style. The wrong choice can lead to water damage, slippery surfaces, and costly repairs. Here’s a complete guide to the best tile types for bathrooms.
✅ Why Tile Choice Matters
- Moisture resistance prevents mould and mildew
