Stones and ceramic tiles are best cut with wet tile saws.
Ceramic tiles, as you may know are the most commonly used tiles in the world. These are both thick and brittle. Due to their hard surface they resist germs and bacteria better than any other tile, and that is the main reason why these are the preferred choice for wash rooms, hospitals, pools and places where bacteria and germs are a cause of concern. While stone tiles are great for fireplaces and outdoors due to their resilience to heat.
