Tile outside?

Porcelain tile isn't bad for rentals. I use it as much as I can. You just have to make sure the subfloor is solid. If it flexes at all your tile will break.

Will it hold up to outside use, rain, sun, freezing temperatures?

The slate lasted like 10 yrs. it wasnt thick slate though

Yeah, you'll just need to reseal the grout as needed. I aim for every three years, but I've gone 5 years without a problem.

What kind of subfloor do you have?

Plywood

You'll want something that is water resistant if it gets cold there. A layer of backerboard will do the job. Plywood and tile expand and contract at different rates, so freezing temperatures could theoretically lead to flexing and broken tile.

Tile is really shit tier compared to other options for flooring we have today. All it takes is one guy dropping a mug wrong and bam, the tile is done for. Once you have a cracked tile in the middle of a bunch it is a total fucking cunt to fix properly. If you don't have any spare tiles from the exact same manufacturing run then gg.

You run into the same "matching" problem with any other material. Tile holds up better than most other materials. Luxury vinyl tile is good too, but it costs a bit more and isn't as durable for outdoor use.

Why would you ever do anything other than a concrete patio or a timber deck? Unless you have some "architectural" house that you think looks good but normal people think looks fucking gay.

I was under the impression it's a concrete patio, which is why there's slate tile there already.
