Kitchen tiles

There is a number of tile types available so when you're refurbishing your kitchen with new tiles on the work surfaces, floors and walls, selecting the best tiles on the market is necessary. When you're on a budget, porcelain or ceramic tiles can be a practical option. Porcelain tiles are extremely hard and therefore are very durable, but either tile material provides a large selection of designs, textures and colours. A more luxurious option is natural stone tiles which are available in many different sizes, or you could choose mosaic tiles with mat mesh backing to tile sections of walls or to use as tiled borders. Another option to consider is modular tile sets that can look effective on either floors or walls and both are available in slate and travertine, with the variety of colours providing an attractive finish. Individuality can be added to any kitchen with the use of handmade tiles which often have raised designs, or there are metallic tiles, often available in mosaic tile sheets, which can provide a clean fresh look and work well as splash backs.

Peterborough Tiles made from natural stone

A range of different natural stone tiles are available to choose from that offer a luxurious finish to a wall or floor in your home and they can be laid as a floor or tiled on your walls by a capable Peterborough tiler. En suites and bathrooms are frequently decorated in filled and honed travertine tiles, whilst the unfilled versions of the stone tiles are popular in kitchens where splashing is less. Application of natural stone tile sealant should be carried out to prevent surface damage from staining or discolouring, but the most important natural stone tiles to seal are porous marble, travertine or limestone. 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 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.

Different sorts of floor tiles

Although many tiles are available to choose between, some of them are designed only for walls, others are specifically for use on floors, or there are some ranges that can be used for either floors or walls. Floor tiles should have enough texture that when wet they aren't slippery, so that they are safe for use in kitchens and bathrooms where splashing from taps and water sources occurs. When tiling walls, the tiles tend to be thinner, which also makes them cheaper in general. 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 you're getting the right sort of tiles for your walls and floors.

Tiling Services Offered for Peterborough

There is a range of services that tilers in Peterborough provide, from laying tiled floors over underfloor heating, which can either be piped or an electric mat, to old floor and wall tile removal as well as using floor levelling compounds and plaster to level walls and floors 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, which includes coloured grout and flexible adhesive products, and they can provide advice on the best type of adhesion products for your particular tiling task. If your tiles have been attached to your walls and floors, the tiled surfaces can be coated with finishing products like sealing tiles made from natural stone materials. This will protect tiles from discolouring and marking and an experienced tiler can provide this service each year to ensure your tiles look attractive for many years.

Rooms that can benefit from tiling

A hard wearing flooring option is tiles, which are suited to being laid on either floors or walls, and they also make attractive work tops and fire surrounds. Minton tiled floors can often be found in hallways of Victorian properties, which can be covered with rugs to add warmth and are easy to sweep clean. 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 families with kids and/or pets often opt for tiling on their floors. Sun rooms and conservatories are also decorated frequently with tiles, due to their cool surface during hot weather and they can be combined with underfloor heating if desired to add warmth in winter.

• Modular unfilled travertine
• Ceramic bathroom wall tiles
• Handmade ceramic tiles
• Stainless steel mosaic tiles
