Types of floor tiles

Although many tiles are available to choose between, some ranges of tiles are only for application on walls, others are floor tile ranges, whilst some can be used to decorate either type of surface. Tiles for floors are usually textured to prevent people slipping on them, making them a practical option for kitchens, bathrooms and wet rooms where water will likely splash on them. 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. DIY shops and tile outlets usually have signs in place to indicate what type of tiles you're looking at so you know your choice of tiles are suitable for the surface you're decorating.

Laying tiles in your home

A hard wearing flooring option is tiles, which are well suited to application on both floors and walls, and they also make attractive work tops and fire surrounds. Tiles are often used as a hallway flooring material in Victorian properties, which can be covered with rugs to add warmth and are easy to sweep clean. Tiled kitchens and bathrooms are commonplace, as is often the case with utility room flooring and wall coverings, as a result of them being waterproof and hygienic. For that reason, tiled floors are popular for families with pets and children. Sun rooms and conservatories are also decorated frequently with tiles, because they provide a cool flooring surface even when the room is warm and underfloor heating can be installed to heat them in winter.

Tiles suited to use in kitchens

A number of different sorts of tiles are on offer so when you're planning to tile a kitchen work surfaces, floors and walls, 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 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, which are available in many different sizes, or mesh backed travertine mosaics can be used to create borders or part tile walls. A further possibility that can look effective on walls and floors is modular tile sets and you can choose between various coloured slate and travertine products. For a rustic kitchen or a feature wall look, handmade tiles can look fantastic with relief patterns and individual surface finishes, whereas if you want a tile that looks good as a splash back, you could try metallic tiles.

Professional Newcastle upon Tyne tiling services

Tilers in Newcastle upon Tyne offer a number of services, from laying tiled floors over underfloor heating, which can be electrically powered or heated through hot water in pipes, to removal of tiles from floors and walls 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, such as specialist adhesives and tile grout, and they can provide advice on the best type of adhesion products for your particular tiling task. Once walls have been tiled, treatments to finish the surfaces of the tiles can be used, such as treating natural stone tiles with sealant. Staining and discolouring of tile surfaces can be avoided by sealing tiles, and every year you can receive a quality service from Newcastle upon Tyne tilers therefore effectively maintaining that freshly tiled look in your kitchen or bathroom.

Newcastle upon Tyne Tiles made from natural stone

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 a time served Newcastle upon Tyne tiler can carry out the tiling work for you. En suites and bathrooms are frequently decorated in filled and honed travertine tiles, whereas kitchens are commonly tiled with unfilled travertine because the amount of water contact is less. Surfaces of travertine tiles that are treated with sealant will be prevented from discolouring or being marked, however porous surfaces such as limestone, tumbled marble and unfilled travertine are particularly in need of sealing. Sealant should also be reapplied after around 12 months to ensure the surface remains protected. Slate tiles are another popular natural stone tile type that can be purchased in various colours and usually have 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.
