Different rooms where tiles can be used

Tiles are an easy to clean and durable material practical wall covering and flooring materials, and they also make attractive work tops and fire surrounds. Victorian properties frequently have tiled floors with decorative Minton tiles, which are easy to sweep clean and can be covered with rugs. Bathrooms and kitchens are most commonly tiled rooms, as is often the case with utility room flooring and wall coverings, because tiles offer a waterproof and hygienic solution. That's one of the reasons why families find tiled floors so appealing. Tiles are also frequently used for flooring in conservatories because they are cool under foot in warm weather and they can also be heated in winter using underfloor heating.

Natural stone tiles Cardiff

A large amount of choice is on offer in natural stone tile ranges that are suited to use as luxurious floor and wall tiles and an experienced Cardiff tiler can decorate your surfaces with them. En suites and bathrooms are frequently decorated in filled and honed travertine tiles, whereas the unfilled type of tile will often be used to decorate kitchens because there is less chance of water splashing. Sealant should be applied to any natural stone tiles to protect the surface from being affected by discolouration or stains, but in particular, travertine, marble and limestone tiles with porous surfaces should be treated. It is also important to reseal tiles annually so the protection remains. Slate is a popular tile material suited to both wall and floors that provides many colour options and has attractive riven textures. Tile suppliers and DIY stores offer tiles in a variety of different sizes or you can choose modular packs which provide variation in tile sizes.

Different sorts of floor tiles

When choosing new tiles, there are many types t choose between, and some tile ranges are specifically for walls, others are designed to be used for flooring, or there are some ranges that can be used for either floors or walls. Textured surfaces are a feature of floor tiles making them less slippery, to make them practical for use in utility rooms, kitchens and bathrooms where they're exposed to splashing from water. You don't need as thick tiles on walls so prices are usually lower than floor tiles. A number of people also choose to combine wall tiles with a border positioned horizontally around walls. Signage and point of sales in DIY superstores and tile retailers are usually present to indicate what type of tiles you are looking at so you don't purchase the wrong sort of tiles for your floors and walls.
