Rooms that can benefit from tiling

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 create tiled fire surrounds and work surfaces that look attractive. 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 with floors and walls in utility rooms, as a result of them being waterproof and hygienic. Therefore many families with kids and/or pets often opt for tiling on their floors. Another room commonly tiled is a conservatory, because they are cool under foot in warm weather and they can be combined with underfloor heating if desired to add warmth in winter.

Tiling kitchens|Using tiles in kitchens

You can choose from a number of different tile types, so when you're refurbishing your kitchen with new tiles on the walls or floors, or even the work surfaces, you'll need to select the best type of tiles. Ceramic and porcelain tiles can be a good choice if you're on a budget. Durability is one of the main benefits of porcelain tiles resulting from how hard they are, however you can choose from many tile types, patterns and designs. If you're looking for a more luxurious option, you could try natural stone that you can find in various sizes including 40x60cm, 40x40cm and 60x60cm, or can be smaller mosaic mat tiles that can cover walls or be used as borders. 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. Handmade tiles with designs such as flora and fauna can add a bit of individuality to a kitchen or for splash backs with a difference, try metallic tiles which look good in a brushed finish.

Tiles suitable for floors

Although there are many different types of tiles, some tiles are wall specific, others are floor tile ranges, 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, which makes them safe for shower rooms, bathrooms and wet rooms where splashing from taps and water sources occurs. Tiles for walls don't need to be as thick so are often cheaper. 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 know whether they are for walls or floors.

Services tilers in Isle of Man are offering

There are a number of services offered by tilers in Isle of Man, from covering underfloor heating systems with floor tiles, either installed as electric mat or piped hot water systems, to removing old wall and floor tiles and preparing surfaces with floor levelling compound or plaster prior to tiling with new porcelain, stone or ceramic tiles. Products needed to carry out your tiling work can be sourced by a tiling expert, such as specialist adhesives and tile grout, and they can give advice about the best tile brands and products to select. Once the tiling process is complete, treatments to finish the surfaces of the tiles can be used, like sealing tiles made from natural stone materials.

Different types of natural stone tiles for Isle of Man

Many types of natural stone tiles are available that are popular choices for floor and wall tiles and an experienced Isle of Man tiler can decorate your surfaces with them. Filled and honed travertine is popular for use in shower rooms and bathrooms, 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 being affected by discolouration or stains, however porous surfaces such as limestone, tumbled marble and unfilled travertine are particularly in need of sealing. Reapplying the sealant each year will make sure the tile surfaces remain protected. Another natural stone tile type that is popular is slate, which usually has a riven texture and can be found in different colours. Natural stone tiles can be purchased in various sizes or there are options to use modular tile packs that give a variety of tile sizes to create attractive designs.
