Mosaics may contain ceramic, porcelain, glass, stone, metal, or mixed materials. A mosaic approved for a backsplash may not be suitable for a shower floor or submerged application. Sheet alignment should be reviewed during installation to avoid visible grid lines. Natural stone may require sealing, while glass and metal require compatible mortars.

Key considerations
