It’s not always necessary, so we didn’t tape all the tiles-for example, the surface of a travertine tile is soft and porous, and most bits will not wander when drilling through travertine. We used masking tape on the tops of some tiles, which can help keep bits from wandering and reduce the risk of the tile chipping during the drilling process. All of the drill bits were tested using a standard cordless drill. Our actual testing process was straightforward. We considered the brand to an extent-DeWalt and Bosch are both top manufacturers of construction tools-but didn’t automatically eliminate drill bits from smaller or niche manufacturers if they featured carbide or diamond tips and were rated well by consumers. Over the years, we’ve had plenty of practice drilling tile, so our experience combined with in-depth product research was instrumental in selecting the drill bits for testing.
