    What is the best material for an exterior tile that is in New Jersey.
    Which material is better for a tile deck that endures some of NJ winter weather? Porcelain, Ceramic, or Porcelain covered ceramic? It's south NJ so the winters aren't horrible, but we still deal with the freeze/thaw issues.
    Thanks
