Both are made from clay, but porcelain is fired at higher temperatures (around 2,200°F) making it denser and less porous. Porcelain has a water absorption rate below 0.5%, making it suitable for outdoor and high-moisture areas. Ceramic tile is softer, easier to cut, and less expensive — it works well for walls and light-traffic floors.
Properly installed ceramic or porcelain tile can last 50–100+ years. The tile itself is extremely durable — the most common failure point is grout deterioration, which can be addressed by regrouting every 10–15 years. Natural stone tile also lasts a lifetime with proper sealing and maintenance.

Most professionals recommend removing old flooring for the best results, especially in bathrooms where floor height relative to drain positions matters.
