Natural stone tiles are mined rather than made. They vary in color, patters and thickness of the tile. Ceramic and porcelain tile is generally much more homogenous and is easier to install. There are benefits of both types of tile, but when choosing an installer, verify that they specialize in natural stone installation. It takes far more skill than ceramic or porcelain tile installation.
