Tiling kitchens|Using tiles in kitchens

There are many different types of tiles so if you're looking to retile your kitchen floors, walls or to create splash backs, you'll need to select the best type of tiles. Choosing porcelain or ceramic tiles can be practical when on a budget. 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 which are available in many different sizes, or you could choose mosaics on mesh backing which either look good covering walls or can break up larger tiles as a border. Another option is modular tile sets which look attractive as flooring but can also be used as wall tiles, and these tend to be available in travertine and slate most commonly. Relief patterns and gloss or matt finishes are available in handmade tiles which can add luxury to a kitchen, and metallic tiles can be used to reflect light and provide attractive splash backs.

Different types of natural stone tiles for Hull

A range of different natural stone tiles are available to choose from that are popular choices for floor and wall tiles and they can be laid as a floor or tiled on your walls by a capable Hull tiler. 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. Travertine tiles treated with stone sealant are protected from discolouring or being marked, but the most important natural stone tiles to seal are porous marble, travertine or limestone. It is also important to reseal tiles annually so the protection remains. Slate tiles, which can be used on walls or floors, are another popular choice, which usually has a riven texture and can be found in different colours. Tiles are available in many different sizes whilst choosing modular packs of tiles give the opportunity to create tile designs with different sized pieces of stone.

Services offered by Hull tilers

A number of services are provided by tilers in Hull, from tiling over underfloor heating systems, which is either powered by electric mats or with piped hot water, 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. Accessories and tiling products are also able to be provided by professional tilers, including rapid dry adhesives and tile grout, and they can also offer advice about the best products for your tiling project. Once the tiling process is complete, the tiled surfaces can be coated with finishing products such as application of coats of sealant. This will protect tiles from discolouring and marking and every year you can receive a quality service from Hull tilers to leave the surface of your tiles protected and looking beautiful for years.

Using tiles to decorate your home

Tiles provide hard wearing durability and are easy to clean, as well as being suited to being laid on either floors or walls, and you can also use them to decorate fire places or to make splash backs. Minton tiled floors can often be found in hallways of Victorian properties, which look good with rugs on them and can be kept clean easily with sweeping and mopping. Tiled walls and floors in bathrooms and kitchens are commonplace, as with floors and walls in utility rooms, because tiles offer a waterproof and hygienic solution. For that reason, families with kids and pets tend to choose tiled floors. Tiles are also frequently used for flooring in conservatories because tiles provide a cool surface for warm summer weather and by installing underfloor heating systems, warmth can be provided in winter.

Tiles suitable for floors

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 water will likely splash on them. Tiling on walls is usually done with thinner tiles, making them cost less. Many people choose border tiles to break up tiling on 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 know whether they are for walls or floors.
