Different types of kitchen tiles
You can choose from a number of different tile types, so if you're looking to retile your kitchen floors, walls or to create splash backs, 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. When you require durability, the hardness of porcelain is the ideal choice, but both types of tiles are available in a range of colours and designs. You could also introduce the beauty of natural products with natural stone tiles, which are available in many different sizes, or mesh backed travertine mosaics can be used to create borders or part tile walls. 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. For a rustic kitchen or a feature wall look, handmade tiles can look fantastic with relief patterns and individual surface finishes, and metallic tiles can be used to reflect light and provide attractive splash backs.

Tile options Northampton: Made from natural stone
A large amount of choice is on offer in natural stone tile ranges which are luxurious wall and floor tile options work which can be completed by an experienced tiler in Northampton. Honed and filled travertine tiles are commonly used in bathrooms and en suites, whereas the unfilled type of tile will often be used to decorate kitchens because there is less chance of water splashing. Application of natural stone tile sealant should be carried out to prevent surface damage from discolouring or being marked, but marble, limestone and travertine tiles with porous surfaces are the most important tiles to seal. Sealant should also be reapplied after around 12 months to ensure the surface remains protected. 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. Tile shops sell natural stone tiles in a range of size options or even as modular packs containing a variety of sized pieces.

Decorating your house with tiles
If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are practical for flooring and wall coverings, and you can also use them to decorate fire places or to make splash backs. Tiles are often used as a hallway flooring material in Victorian properties, which look good with rugs on them and can be kept clean easily with sweeping and mopping. Kitchen and bathrooms are frequently decorated with tiles, as are utility room walls and floors, because they are both waterproof and hygienic. That's one of the reasons why families find tiled floors so appealing. Conservatories and sun rooms are also commonly tiled, because tiles provide a cool surface for warm summer weather and they can also be heated in winter using underfloor heating.
Different sorts of floor tiles
When choosing new tiles, there are many types t choose between, and some tiles are wall specific, other tiles are made to be floor coverings, 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, so that they are safe for use in kitchens and bathrooms 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. Tile retailers and outlets will usually have tiles marked up so you know you're getting the right sort of tiles for your walls and floors.
