How is ceramic tile different from porcelain tile?
Both are made from clay, but porcelain uses denser clay and is fired at higher temperatures. This makes porcelain less porous and more durable, while ceramic is more affordable and easier to cut for installation.

Ceramic Wall Tiles on Floor?
Ceramic tile will be fine on floors, so long as you install them properly, make sure the thin set is properly spread, and back butter the tile. Travertine is even softer than ceramic tile and it can last a long time on floors so you shouldn’t have much issue. Also make sure you use a crack prevention membrane is there are any cracks. I use a variety of items for my clients, one of them being flex guard as it’s not too expensive and works great. You can also use a liquid membrane or another called schluter-ditra. Really depends on how much your budget allows. More on reddit.com

November 12, 2007 - I would definately get the rest of the stuff off the wall. problem is that it is water-soluble adhesive, so if you don't take it off now, should it ever get wet then the tile could fall off, with the thinset firmly attached to the back of the tile. You might not need Dif, although I have used it and it works well.

ONLY IF... the floor surface is well-prepared (1/2" cement board minimum), the tiles have a thick enough body (some wall tiles have a very thin body, and are unsuitable for floor tiles because they're so fragile), and are made up of a material (my favorite is red clay) suitable for compressive loading (your heeled shoes, or high heels), your mortaring work is IMPECCABLE, and your tile-laying technique is excellent.

Maybe not, but not for the reason you think! Wall tiles on the floor would certainly be considered an alternative material. In some jurisdictions it is illegal to install building materials for other than their intended purpose without approval.

 "The provisions of this code are not intended to prevent the
 installation of any material or to prohibit any design or method 
 of construction not specifically prescribed by this code, provided
 that any such alternative has been approved. An alternative material,
 design or method of construction shall be approved where the building
 official finds that the proposed design is satisfactory and complies
 with the intent of the provisions of this code, and that the
 material, method or work offered is, for the purpose intended, at  
 least the equivalent of that prescribed in this code. Compliance with 
 the specific performance-based provisions of the International Codes 
 in lieu of specific requirements of this code shall also be permitted 
 as an alternate."

I once asked for approval and they wanted result from a testing lab showing equivalency.

Please don't shoot the messenger! I think you know who to shoot.

r/Tile on Reddit: Ceramic Wall Tiles on Floor?
December 24, 2021 -

I just purchased 600+ sqft of wood look tile (6"x24") to install in the living room and family room. Got them delivered only to see the words "ceramic" on the boxes. I somehow assumed they were porcelain. So I go to the website listed on the box, found my tiles and saw that they were categorized as "ceramic wall tiles", no other information is offered, and I don't know the grade of the tile. Now I'm panicking because there is a no refund policy.

Can I use these "ceramic wall tiles" on my floors? Would it be a waste of time and money to install them? My biggest concern is installing them (myself) and the floors cracking a few years later.

thank you in advance!

Edit w/ update/question: Thank you again to everyone who replied. I ended up calling the tile store, who then called the manufacture and they reassured me that the tiles are suitable for flooring, and made of porcelain (even though the box has "CERAMIC" printed on it).

This weekend I took them out of the box and started laying them out. I quickly noticed some were chipped at the edges. They could have already chipped upon arrival, or I was not careful enough and had chipped them as I laid them out. Either way I feel like these tiles are very prone to chipping and I can't help but think they are ceramic tiles.

My question to everyone is: are tiles that fragile and is chipping normal during the install process? or have I been duped?

I've included some pictures for a visual.

Thank you!

July 28, 2025 - Tile sizes range from tiny mosaic to large format and come in just about any shape imaginable. Choose from almost any installation pattern and incorporate trim pieces, borders and inlays to accentuate decorative elements. Mix and match colors and sizes for visual interest, or repeat the same styles on walls, countertops or showers for a cohesive look. Ceramic tile is a suitable choice for many areas of the home, whether it’s walls, floors, countertops or backsplashes.
