About ColorTile.net
Our Mission
ColorTile.net was built for one reason: to help homeowners make confident, informed tile color decisions without the confusion that comes from conflicting showroom advice, overwhelming online options, and a shortage of accessible, honest information.
Tile is a long-term investment. A tiled floor or wall will be part of your home for 15–30 years. The decision deserves better than a quick Google search or a salesperson who wants to upsell you to the most expensive option in the showroom. ColorTile.net provides independent, research-backed guidance based on real expertise.
Important Disclosure
ColorTile.net is not affiliated with ColorTile Pty Ltd (Australia) or any tile manufacturer, retailer, or brand. ColorTile.net is an independent editorial website. Our content is produced by our named authors and does not represent any commercial tile manufacturer, retailer, or brand.
What We Do
We create expert-written guides on tile color selection, room applications, color combinations, installation techniques, and shopping. We also build practical free tools — like our Tile Calculator — that help homeowners plan their projects with accuracy.
Every guide on ColorTile.net is written by either Sarah Mitchell or David Chen — our two named, credentialed contributors. We do not publish anonymous content or AI-generated articles without human expert review.

How We Make Money
ColorTile.net earns revenue through affiliate marketing. When you click a link to a tile store and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. This is how we fund the research and writing that goes into our guides.
Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial recommendations. We maintain strict separation between commercial relationships and content decisions. Stores are ranked based on genuine quality assessments — not by which ones pay higher commissions.
We may also display contextual advertising (including Google AdSense) in the future. Any advertising will be clearly labeled.

- Content is reviewed and updated at least annually — dates are accurate.
- We clearly disclose when content contains affiliate links.
- We do not accept payment for editorial placement or positive reviews.
