What are the things to consider when buying tiles?

When it comes to choosing tiles for your home interior, it may be hard knowing where to start. Here are some Key Guidelines to make things easier.
Think about the style of your home. Have a look through magazines and online for images of tiles you like. Try and not go against the style of your home – instead, work with it.
  • Tile Size: Small-sized tiles are usually suited to small residential areas such as kitchens, bathrooms, and toilets.
  • Room Size:- Large tiles make a room feel larger and airier. Using floor tiles on the walls will make space seem more cohesive, but you can’t use wall tiles on the floor. A floor tile will have a harder glaze and will be made of harder materials to withstand traffic. In a small room, light-colored tiles will make space feel bigger. If you have a large room you have more options; you can choose from light to dark tiles.
  • Colour:- Consider the general feel you want to achieve in the room you are tiling. Unless you have a feature area such as a splashback, tiles aren’t normally the focus of a room, but they can complement other design features of a room. In a bathroom, you might want a restful relaxing setting, so go for colors that blend well together. In a kitchen you might want a more vibrant option, so choose colours that contrast.
  • Grout:- Don’t forget the importance of choosing the right grout color. A contrasting grout will emphasize lines and the design, while a grout in a complementary color as the tile will give a subtle effect. Ensure your grouted areas are sealed to prevent staining.
  • Texture and Pattern:- Whether you choose matt or a polished finished is a personal choice. A glazed tile is easy to clean, whereas a natural terracotta tile has no glaze and would need a seal to stop staining occurring.
  • Natural Light:- A gloss tile will suit a dark space as it reflects more light, as does a lighter color.
Ensure that whatever you choose in one room flows with the rest of your home’s style. If you are looking for the latest Bathware products you can visit Somany Bathware products.
