Professional Harrogate tiling services
Tilers in Harrogate provide a variety of services, from covering underfloor heating systems with floor tiles, which can be electrically powered or heated through hot water in pipes, to old floor and wall tile removal and surface preparation such as floor levelling and plastering walls before using natural stone, porcelain or ceramic tiles to redecorate surfaces. Products needed to carry out your tiling work can be sourced by a tiling expert, including rapid dry adhesives and tile grout, and they can also offer advice about the best products for your tiling project. When your walls are fully tiled, treatments to finish the surfaces of the tiles can be used, like painting coats of tile sealant onto surfaces of stone tiles. This will protect tiles from discolouring and marking and is a service that a quality tiler can provide year on year to leave the surface of your tiles protected and looking beautiful for years.
Different types of natural stone tiles for Harrogate
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 Harrogate tiler. Shower rooms and en suites are often decorated with travertine tiles that are honed and filled, whereas the unfilled type of tile will often be used to decorate kitchens because there is less chance of water splashing. Surfaces of travertine tiles that are treated with sealant will be prevented from discolouring or being marked, but the most important natural stone tiles to seal are porous marble, travertine or limestone. Increased protection can be provided through application of further coats of sealant each year. A further tile choice that is popular is slate which floors and walls can be decorated with, and that provides many colour options and has attractive riven textures. You can choose natural stone tiles in a large number of different sizes or even as modular packs containing a variety of sized pieces.
Different tiles for floors
When choosing new tiles, there are many types t choose between, and some tiles are wall specific, others are specifically for use on floors, or there are some ranges that can be used for either floors or walls. To prevent people slipping on floor tiles, they usually have textured surfaces, making them a practical option for kitchens, bathrooms and wet rooms where water will likely splash on them. When tiling walls, the tiles tend to be thinner, which also makes them cheaper in general. Horizontally positioned border tiles are also used by many people to enhance designs and break up blocks of a single colour. DIY shops and tile outlets usually have signs in place to indicate what type of tiles you're looking at so you know whether they are for walls or floors.
Different tile types to choose from
- Mosaic sheet glass tiles
- Reclaimed terracotta tiles
- Modular unfilled travertine
- Non-slip tiles for floors with textured surfaces
- Riven slate floor tiles
- Brushed chrome metal tiles

Different types of kitchen tiles
There are many different types of tiles so if you're redecorating your kitchen and want to tile floors, walls or to create splash backs, you'll need to select the best type of tiles. A practical option when on a budget is to choose ceramic or porcelain tiles. Durability is one of the main benefits of porcelain tiles resulting from how hard they are, however both tile types come in many designs and colours. A more luxurious option is natural stone tiles that you can find in various sizes including 40x60cm, 40x40cm and 60x60cm, or you could choose mosaics on mesh backing which either look good covering walls or can break up larger tiles as a border. Modular sets of tiles are effective wall decor options and these tend to be available in travertine and slate most commonly. Adding individuality to a kitchen can be achieved by using handmade tiles, whereas if you want a tile that looks good as a splash back, you could try metallic tiles.
Using tiles to decorate your home
If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are suitable for use on walls and floors, and you can also create tiled fire surrounds and work surfaces that look attractive. Minton tiled floors can often be found in hallways of Victorian properties, which can be covered with rugs to add warmth and are easy to sweep clean. Tiled kitchens and bathrooms are commonplace, as with floors and walls in utility rooms, because tiles offer a waterproof and hygienic solution. For that reason, tiled floors are popular for families with pets and children. Conservatories and sun rooms are also commonly tiled, because tiles provide a cool surface for warm summer weather and they can be combined with underfloor heating if desired to add warmth in winter.
