Floor tiles are versatile and can be installed in various areas, including:

  • Outdoor Areas: Certain tiles, like porcelain, are suitable for patios and walkways.
  • Commercial Spaces: Durable enough to handle high foot traffic in retail stores, offices, and restaurants.

Consider the following factors when selecting floor tiles:

  • Durability: Choose tiles that can withstand the expected foot traffic.
  • Water Resistance: For wet areas, select tiles with high water resistance.
  • Slip Resistance: In areas prone to moisture, opt for tiles with a textured surface to prevent slipping.
  • Aesthetics: Select colors, patterns, and finishes that complement your interior design.
  • Size and Layout: Larger tiles can make a space feel bigger, while smaller tiles can add intricate detail.
  • Regular Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum to remove dirt and debris.
  • Mopping: Use a damp mop with a mild detergent suitable for tiles.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners that can damage the tile surface.
  • Grout Maintenance: Clean grout lines regularly and consider sealing them to prevent staining.

Consider the following factors when selecting internal wall tiles:

  • Style and Design: Choose tiles that complement your interior décor and personal taste.
  • Size and Layout: Larger tiles can make a space feel more expansive, while smaller tiles or mosaics can add intricate detail.
  • Finish: Glossy finishes reflect light and can make a room feel brighter, while matte finishes offer a more subdued look.
  • Material: Select a material that suits the room's function; for example, porcelain is excellent for moisture-prone areas.

While DIY installation is possible, installing external floor tiles requires proper preparation and techniques to ensure durability and safety. It's recommended to hire professional installers to achieve the best results.

Natural stone tiles often require sealing to protect against moisture and stains, while porcelain tiles are generally non-porous and may not need sealing. Consult with our experts to determine the appropriate maintenance for your chosen tiles.

Proper slope and drainage systems should be incorporated during installation to prevent water pooling. Professional installers can ensure that the tiles are laid with the correct gradient to facilitate drainage.
