I'm installing a fireplace if you have been following some of my other
posts.

I had a question about ceramic tile and porcelain tile. I was going to
do marble around the fireplace but the guy at the stove place
suggested using tile with a colored grout. It was a nice look. Also,
he said if you do it right you can easily swap out the tile if you
change the color of the room you can change the tile with little
expense compared to marble. We've looked at them and sure enough they
sell tile that looks a lot like a natural stone product.

My question is what is the major difference between ceramic and
porcelain tile? Is one easier to cut over the other? I was going to
get a diamond blade and put it on my chop saw, would this work? Or
will a little table top 89.99 wet tile saw do better? Or can this tile
be scored and broken like tile? I noticed that the ceramic tile is
like 3/16 thick and the porcelain is more like a ¼ inch thick. My wife
likes one of the porcelain patterns so I think I'm going to be cutting
that thick stuff. Let me know which way to go. Thanks.
