If you have done your research and due diligence then you are going to know if that great looking 300 dollar formica countertop and stick on vinyl floor versus the 2000 dollar granite and ceramic tile floor is going to be acceptable in your price range and neighborhood.          

Then they complained that the tile (12x12 ceramic) was too heavy to place on the shower surround.

I've also replaced the bathroom floors with ceramic tile.

Ceramic tile on the counter tops. 6" tile, NO BULLNOSES or rounded edges at the front, did not use hardi backer, just glued it to the plywood.

I have done the roof, ceramic, hardwoods, major structural repair to foundation, built deck, removed partitions, added beams, redone the yard & landscaping, installed furnace...you name it.

I believe you can pick out 3-phase by looking at the high voltage lines - this are the ones with the stacked ceramic insulators. 

@Matthew Paul Yep, ran into the same thing with ceramic tile in the kitchen adding an inch to the front and making it super difficult to replace the dishwasher.

I get that it is cheaper initially but it will cost you more in the long run VS ceramic or LVT/LVP.  

I put  in ceramic tile in bathrooms, entry, and the kitchen, had crews install granite in the kitchen and bathrooms, new carpeting, replaced lighting and plumbing fixtures, and generally readied the place for retail.

We made some sacrifices, forgoing a planned jack-and-jill bathroom upstairs, some leveling of the concrete basement floor, and ceramic tile floors and surrounds in the two bathrooms.
