Are PVC floors cheaper than ceramic tiles?

In most cases, PVC flooring is cheaper than ceramic tiles for the following reasons:

✅ Lower material costs: PVC is generally cheaper than ceramic tiles for the same grade of product.

✅ Lower installation costs: PVC requires no cement mortar, is lightweight, quick to install, and has low labor costs.

✅ Lower maintenance costs: Waterproof, stain-resistant, not prone to cracking, and inexpensive to repair later. In most projects, the overall cost of PVC flooring is significantly lower than that of ceramic tiles, especially for large-area installations in hospitals, schools, offices, and shops.
