Choosing natural stone tile products Exeter

Natural stone tile ranges offer a large amount of choice of tile types that offer a luxurious finish to a wall or floor in your home and an experienced Exeter tiler can decorate your surfaces with them. Filled and honed travertine is popular for use in shower rooms and bathrooms, whilst unfilled travertine is more suited to areas where it will be exposed to less water and splashing. Application of natural stone tile sealant should be carried out to prevent surface damage from being marked or discolouring, but marble, limestone and travertine tiles with porous surfaces are the most important tiles to seal. Reapplying the sealant each year will make sure the tile surfaces remain protected. Another natural stone tile type that is popular is slate, that can be smooth or riven in texture and finish, and offers many colour options from multicoloured to flat black or grey. Tiles are available in many different sizes or even as modular packs containing a variety of sized pieces.

Laying tiles in your home

If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are suited to being laid on either floors or walls, and they can also be used to decorate work surfaces and create splash backs. Minton tiled floors can often be found in hallways of Victorian properties, which mopping and sweeping can clean with ease and rugs can add warmth. Tiled kitchens and bathrooms are commonplace, and likewise with floors and walls in utility rooms, because tiles offer a waterproof and hygienic solution. Therefore many families with kids and/or pets often opt for tiling on their floors. Sun rooms and conservatories are also decorated frequently with tiles, because tiles provide a cool surface for warm summer weather and by installing underfloor heating systems, warmth can be provided in winter.

Different types of kitchen tiles

There are many different types of tiles so if you're redecorating your kitchen and want to tile work tops, walls or flooring, you'll need to select the best type of tiles. Choosing porcelain or ceramic tiles can be practical when on a budget. Porcelain tiles are hard wearing because they are incredibly hard, however tiles made from either type of material can be purchased with various designs and with glazed or textured surfaces. If you're looking for a more luxurious option, you could try natural stone which can either be full size tiles, smaller square tiles or mesh backed travertine mosaics can be used to create borders or part tile walls. Another option is modular tile sets which look attractive as flooring but can also be used as wall tiles, and you can select from a range of travertine and slate options with various colours on offer.

Different sorts of floor tiles

There is a large amount of choice when selecting new tiles, but some of them are designed only for walls, others are specifically for use on floors, whilst either wall or floor surfaces can be decorated with other tile ranges. 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'll get splashed. You don't need as thick tiles on walls so prices are usually lower than floor tiles. Many people choose border tiles to break up tiling on walls. Tiles are usually marked up in a DIY store or tile shop so you don't end up with the wrong sort of tiles for your floors or walls.
