Ceramic Tile

A time-tested, practical choice for kitchens, bathrooms, mudrooms, and entryways. We carry a range of sizes, colors, and textures — from traditional subway and subway-adjacent formats to larger field tiles.

Porcelain Tile

Denser and more water-resistant than ceramic, porcelain is an excellent choice for high-moisture areas and exterior applications. We carry through-body porcelain and glazed options in formats up to large-scale slabs.

Natural Stone Tile

Slate, travertine, marble, and other natural stone options are available through our showroom. Natural stone adds character and permanence — and requires proper sealing and installation to perform as intended.

Large-Format Tile

Large-format tiles — often 24x24 or larger — create a sleek, seamless look with fewer grout lines. They require a flat, properly prepared subfloor. Our team knows the prep requirements and handles the installation correctly.

Family-owned. Locally operated. Since 1991.

Sanford Flooring serves all of York County and Southern Maine.

Tile Flooring Questions

Porcelain is made from a denser clay fired at a higher temperature, making it harder and less porous than ceramic. Porcelain is better suited for wet areas and freeze-thaw outdoor applications. Ceramic is slightly softer, easier to cut, and generally less expensive. Both are excellent choices depending on the application.
Tile requires a stable, flat substrate. Existing flooring may need to be removed depending on height, condition, and type. We assess this during the estimate visit.
Most tile installations involve setting the tile, allowing for cure time, and then grouting. A standard bathroom floor typically takes one to two days. Larger projects or those requiring significant subfloor prep will take longer. We provide a realistic timeline at the estimate stage.
Yes — and it is one of our specialties. See our Custom Tile Showers page for details on design, materials, and our shower installation process.
