Different sorts of floor tiles

There is a large amount of choice when selecting new tiles, but some tile ranges are specifically for walls, others are specifically for use on floors, whilst some can be used to decorate either type of surface. Textured surfaces are a feature of floor tiles making them less slippery, so that they are safe for use in kitchens and bathrooms where water splashing can occur. Wall tiles tend to be cheaper as they can be thinner. Borders are also often used with wall tiles to break up expanses of tiles. DIY shops and tile outlets usually have signs in place to indicate what type of tiles you're looking at so you don't end up with the wrong sort of tiles for your floors or walls.

Tile types to choose from

• Border mosaics on mesh backing
• Textured non-slip floor tiles
• Luxury handmade tiles with raised designs
• Floor and wall tiles made from porcelain
• Mosaic tiles in brushed chrome
• Coloured glass tiles
• Kitchen floor terracotta tiles
• Honed and filled travertine linear mosaic tiles
• Natural slate floor tiles
• Bathroom wall ceramic tiles

Blackpool Tiles made from natural stone

A range of different natural stone tiles are available to choose from that many people like to use on their walls and floors for a touch of luxury and they can be laid as a floor or tiled on your walls by a capable Blackpool tiler. Shower rooms and en suites are often decorated with travertine tiles that are honed and filled, whereas kitchens are commonly tiled with unfilled travertine because the amount of water contact is less. Application of natural stone tile sealant should be carried out to prevent surface damage from discolouring or being marked, however porous surfaces such as limestone, tumbled marble and unfilled travertine are particularly in need of sealing. Ensuring a regular coat of sealant is applied each year will protect your tiles for longer. Slate tiles are another popular natural stone tile type that can be purchased in various colours and usually have riven textures. You can choose natural stone tiles in a large number of different sizes whilst choosing modular packs of tiles give the opportunity to create tile designs with different sized pieces of stone.

Decorating your house with tiles

If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are well suited to application on both floors and walls, and they also make attractive work tops and fire surrounds. Victorian houses often have hallway floors covered with tiles such as Minton tiles, which look good with rugs on them and can be kept clean easily with sweeping and mopping. Bathrooms and kitchens are most commonly tiled rooms, as are utility room walls and floors, which is down to them being hygienic and waterproof. Therefore many families with kids and/or pets often opt for tiling on their floors. Tiles are also frequently used for flooring in conservatories due to their cool surface during hot weather and by installing underfloor heating systems, warmth can be provided in winter.

Professional Blackpool tiling services

There are a number of services offered by tilers in Blackpool, from laying tiled floors over underfloor heating, which can either be piped or an electric mat, to clearing away old wall and floor tiles and surface preparation such as floor levelling and plastering walls to enable them to retile surfaces with stone, ceramic or porcelain tiles. Tiling products can also be supplied by a professional tiler, such as grout and adhesive, and they can give advice about the best tile brands and products to select. If your tiles have been attached to your walls and floors, the tiled surfaces can be coated with finishing products like sealing tiles made from natural stone materials. You can prevent tile discolouration and staining with the application of sealant and every year you can receive a quality service from Blackpool tilers which will maintain the surface of your tiles effectively.

Tiles suited to use in kitchens

A number of different sorts of tiles are on offer so when you're planning to tile a kitchen work surfaces, floors and walls, it's important to choose the best tiles to suit your needs. When you're on a budget, porcelain or ceramic tiles can be a practical option. Porcelain tiles are extremely hard and therefore are very durable, but both types of tiles are available in a range of colours and designs. A more luxurious option is natural stone tiles that you can find in various sizes including 40x60cm, 40x40cm and 60x60cm, or you could choose mosaic tiles with mat mesh backing to tile sections of walls or to use as tiled borders. Another option is modular tile sets which look attractive as flooring but can also be used as wall tiles, and you can choose between various coloured slate and travertine products. Individuality can be added to any kitchen with the use of handmade tiles which often have raised designs, or there are metallic tiles, often available in mosaic tile sheets, which can provide a clean fresh look and work well as splash backs.
