If you’re about to undertake a major home extension or are in the planning stages of building your new home, you’re probably thinking about tiles for your kitchen and bathrooms. Renovating an existing space can improve the living standards for your entire household and increase your property’s value. But how do you know the tiles you’re considering are good quality?
Choosing the right tiles is critical for the project’s success, so the last thing you want is to buy dud flooring. Read on to learn about ensuring the tiles you select are of the best possible quality.
Tile – the timeless choice
Whenever you think about the best kitchen and bathroom materials, tile should be at the top of the list. Because they come in all shapes, sizes, and designs, tiles are the perfect walls, splashback and floor covering.
Wall and floor tiles are easy-clean, and when appropriately installed, floor and wall tiles can last a decade with minimum maintenance. And, as long as you pay attention to the grouting, you can easily wipe your surfaces clean.

Stone floor tiles are ideal for high-traffic areas or continuing the same indoor and outdoor flooring. Whilst some are a little pricier than others, they are worth it once laid and, depending on the stone you pick, can last a lifetime if looked after properly. Stone floor tiles include marble, limestone, and slate and each option has a unique finish and feel. No two tiles are alike.

Our mosaic tiles pack a punch with intricate patterns, vibrant colours, and endless personality. Perfect for adding a splash of style.
What style do you want to achieve?
If your room lacks edge, opt for feature mosaic tiles to bring the wow factor. Earthy natural stone tiles work perfectly within a country or traditional home. Stone-look tiles achieve a country vibe even if you’re on a budget. These tiles may vary slightly in tone, texture or visual appearance, making them feel all the more natural.
What maintenance is involved?
Natural stone and unglazed tiles, such as cement tiles, will need sealing to prevent staining every 1-2 years, depending on the type of tile and where you lay them, adding a secondary level of upkeep on top of regular cleaning and something to bear in mind if this is an option you choose.
Are tiles easy to clean?
Tiles with a textured finish or little pits (which you may find in natural stone) can often be challenging to keep clean. It’s easy to clean high-gloss tile, but any textured surface requires more thorough cleaning.
Choosing the right size tile
Tile size can impact the room’s overall look. A large room with tiny tiles will have considerably more grout lines and may look fussy. A small room with huge tiles may look uneven with its grout lines. It may also make cutting and fitting large tiles in a small space harder.
Budget
Setting a budget before you start looking is essential if the price is a sticking point. Spend a little more money in the rooms that matter (kitchen, laundry and main bathroom) and less in lower traffic rooms (powder room, spare bathroom). Narrowing your choices by price tag before you start looking means you won’t fall in love with something you can’t afford and then struggle to find a cheaper alternative.
