Choosing natural stone tile products Nottingham

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 work which can be completed by an experienced tiler in Nottingham. Bathroom and en suite decor can be transformed with the use of filled and honed travertine tiles, whilst unfilled travertine is more suited to areas where it will be exposed to less water and splashing. Surfaces of travertine tiles that are treated with sealant will be prevented from being marked or discolouring, but marble, limestone and travertine tiles with porous surfaces are the most important tiles to seal. Increased protection can be provided through application of further coats of sealant each year. Another natural stone tile type that is popular is slate, which usually has a riven texture and can be found in different colours. Tile shops sell natural stone tiles in a range of size options whilst choosing modular packs of tiles give the opportunity to create tile designs with different sized pieces of stone.

Tile types to choose from

• Cream and brown travertine tiles
• Reclaimed terracotta tiles
• Border mosaics on mesh backing
• Budget ceramic wall and floor tiles
• Textured black slate flooring
• Floor tiles with non-slip textures
• Relief patterned handmade tiles
• Durable porcelain floor tiles
• Mosaic sheet glass tiles
• Stainless steel mosaic tiles

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. A practical option when on a budget is to choose ceramic or porcelain tiles. 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. For added luxury, natural stone tiles could be the best choice, that can be purchased from tile specialists in a number of different sizes, and both square and rectangle shapes, or can be smaller mosaic mat tiles that can cover walls or be used as borders. Another option to consider is modular tile sets that can look effective on either floors or walls and these tend to be available in travertine and slate most commonly. 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.

Nottingham tilers are offering professional services

A number of services are provided by tilers in Nottingham, 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 using floor leveller or plaster to provide flat surfaces on walls and floors prior to tiling with new porcelain, stone or ceramic tiles. Tiling products can also be supplied by a professional tiler, such as specialist adhesives and tile grout, and they can give advice about the best tile brands and products to select. If your tiles have been attached to your walls and floors, you can add finishing touches such as tile sealant, which is usually applied to natural stone tiles. This will protect tiles from discolouring and marking and regular treatment services can be provided by quality Nottingham tilers to keep your tiles looking good for years to come.

Using tiles to decorate your home

If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are practical for flooring and wall coverings, and they can also be used to decorate work surfaces and create splash backs. 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, which is down to them being hygienic and waterproof. Therefore many families with kids and/or pets often opt for tiling on their floors. Another room commonly tiled is a conservatory, due to their cool surface during hot weather and they can be combined with underfloor heating if desired to add warmth in winter.

Suitable tiles for flooring

There is a large amount of choice when selecting new tiles, but some ranges of tiles are only for application on walls, others are specifically for use on floors, 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 they'll get splashed. 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. Tiles are usually marked up in a DIY store or tile shop so you know whether they are for walls or floors.
