Natural stone tiles Swindon

There are a large number of different types of natural stone tiles that offer a luxurious finish to a wall or floor in your home and an experienced Swindon tiler can decorate your surfaces with them. Shower rooms and en suites are often decorated with travertine tiles that are honed and filled, whereas kitchens are commonly tiled with unfilled travertine because the amount of water contact is less. Travertine tiles treated with stone sealant are protected from marking and discolouration, but marble, limestone and travertine tiles with porous surfaces are the most important tiles to seal. Ensuring a regular coat of sealant is applied each year will protect your tiles for longer. A further tile choice that is popular is slate which floors and walls can be decorated with, and that can be smooth or riven in texture and finish, and offers many colour options from multicoloured to flat black or grey. Natural stone tiles can be purchased in various sizes or you can choose modular packs which provide variation in tile sizes.

Different rooms where tiles can be used

A hard wearing flooring option is tiles, which are suitable for use on walls and floors, and they also make attractive work tops and fire surrounds. Tiles are often used as a hallway flooring material in Victorian properties, which are easy to sweep clean and can be covered with rugs. Kitchens and bathrooms are commonly tiled as with floors and walls in utility rooms, because tiles offer a waterproof and hygienic solution. That's one of the reasons why families find tiled floors so appealing. Another room commonly tiled is a conservatory, because they are cool under foot in warm weather and they can also be heated in winter using underfloor heating.

Services offered by Swindon tilers

A number of services are provided by tilers in Swindon, from laying tiled floors over underfloor heating, which can either be piped or an electric mat, to chipping away old tiles from walls and floors and preparing surfaces with floor levelling compound or plaster for retiling with new ceramic, porcelain or natural stone tiles. Products needed to carry out your tiling work can be sourced by a tiling expert, including rapid dry adhesives and tile grout, and they can give advice about the best tile brands and products to select. If the tiling work is complete, treatments to finish the surfaces of the tiles can be used, such as tile sealant, which is usually applied to natural stone tiles. Sealing tiles will prevent staining and discolouration of your tiles and regular treatment services can be provided by quality Swindon tilers therefore effectively maintaining that freshly tiled look in your kitchen or bathroom.

Different types of kitchen tiles

There are many different types of tiles so when you're refurbishing your kitchen with new tiles on the walls or floors, or even the work surfaces, you will need to choose the best type of tile to suit your needs. Ceramic and porcelain tiles can be a good choice if you're on a budget. When you require durability, the hardness of porcelain is the ideal choice, however both tile types come in many designs and colours. If you want to add a little bit of luxury to your kitchen, natural stone tiles could be the solution, which could be 30.5cm square up to 61 x 40.6cmm, 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 both are available in slate and travertine, with the variety of colours providing an attractive finish. For a rustic kitchen or a feature wall look, handmade tiles can look fantastic with relief patterns and individual surface finishes, whilst metallic tiles can reflect light and look good as splash backs.

Different sorts of floor tiles

When choosing new tiles, there are many types t choose between, and some ranges of tiles are only for application on walls, others are floor tile ranges, and there are other tiles that can be used for walls and floors. Floor tiles are usually textured to prevent slipping when they get wet, to make them practical for use in utility rooms, kitchens and bathrooms where they're exposed to splashing from water. When tiling walls, the tiles tend to be thinner, which also makes them cheaper in general. Another difference to floor tiles is that wall tiles are often combined with a border. 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.
