Vibration resistant tiles? - TilersForums.com

[willjm]

I'm planning to replace old vinyl type flooring in my utility room with tiles and am considering ceramic tiles. However I am concerned about the possibility of damage from vibration of my washing machine. Will ceramic tiles withstand vibrations from a modern front loading washing machine? The tiles will be laid on a concrete base.

There should be no problem with the ceramic tile as long as they're fixed on a solid bed of adhesive.... If your still concerned about the ceramic tiles, why not use porcelain, as they are much harder..

has your washing machine got rubber stoppers on its feet

as long as there fitted correctly, 100% adhesive coverage it will be fine.
