Kitchen tiles

You can choose from a number of different tile types, so if you want to tile your kitchen flooring and walls, it's important to choose the best tiles to suit your needs. If you're on a budget, you could choose ceramic or porcelain tiles. Porcelain tiles are extremely hard and therefore are very durable, but both types of tiles are available in a range of colours and designs. For added luxury, natural stone tiles could be the best choice, that you can find in various sizes including 40x60cm, 40x40cm and 60x60cm, or you could choose mosaic tiles with mat mesh backing to tile sections of walls or to use as tiled borders. Modular tile sets are another possibility suited to use on floors and walls and you can select from a range of travertine and slate options with various colours on offer. Individuality can be added to any kitchen with the use of handmade tiles which often have raised designs, whilst metallic tiles can reflect light and look good as splash backs.

Leeds services from tilers

Tilers in Leeds provide a variety of services, from covering underfloor heating systems with floor tiles, which can either be electrically powered or warmed using hot water, to removing old wall and floor tiles and levelling floors and walls with plaster and screed to prepare walls ready for retiling using stone, porcelain or ceramic designed tiles. Tiling products required to complete tiling jobs can be supplied by specialist tilers, such as grout and adhesive, in addition to being able to give product advice about the most suitable brand for your tiling work. If your tiles have been attached to your walls and floors, you can use tile finishing products like painting coats of tile sealant onto surfaces of stone tiles. Sealing tiles will prevent staining and discolouration of your tiles and an experienced tiler can provide this service each year to ensure your tiles look attractive for many years.

Tile options Leeds: Made from natural stone

Natural stone tile ranges offer a large amount of choice of tile types which are luxurious wall and floor tile options work which can be completed by an experienced tiler in Leeds. Honed and filled travertine tiles are commonly used in bathrooms and en suites, 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 marking and discolouration, however tumbled marble and limestone or porous travertine are the most important tile surfaces to seal. Sealant should also be reapplied after around 12 months to ensure the surface remains protected. 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 whilst tile designs can be created using modular tile packs.

Rooms that can benefit from tiling

If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are practical for flooring and wall coverings, and there is also the option of tiling worktops, splash backs and fireplaces to create beautiful interior environments. Tiles are often used as a hallway flooring material in Victorian properties, which can easily be mopped or swept and rugs can be used to cover them if you wish. Tiled walls and floors in bathrooms and kitchens are commonplace, as are utility room walls and floors, because they are both waterproof and hygienic. Therefore many people with kids and pets tend to choose tiled floors. Conservatories and sun rooms are also commonly tiled, because they provide a cool flooring surface even when the room is warm and they can also be heated in winter using underfloor heating.

Different sorts of floor tiles

There is a large amount of choice when selecting new tiles, but some are more suited to use on walls, other tiles are made to be floor coverings, and there are other tiles that can be used for walls and floors. Textured surfaces are a feature of floor tiles making them less slippery, so that they are safe for use in 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. Borders are also often used with wall tiles to break up expanses of tiles. 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 you're getting the right sort of tiles for your walls and floors.
