Different tiles for floors
Although there are many different types of tiles, some of them are designed only for walls, other tiles are made to be floor coverings, whilst either wall or floor surfaces can be decorated with other tile ranges. 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 water splashing can occur. Tiling on walls is usually done with thinner tiles, making them cost less. A number of people also choose to combine wall tiles with a border positioned horizontally around walls. Signage and point of sales in DIY superstores and tile retailers are usually present to indicate what type of tiles you are looking at so you know your choice of tiles are suitable for the surface you’re decorating.
Different rooms where tiles can be used
If you choose tiles, you will have products that can easily be kept clean and that are practical wall covering and flooring materials, and you can also use them to decorate fire places or to make splash backs. Hallways in Victorian homes are often covered with tiles, which are easy to sweep clean and can be covered with rugs. Tiled walls and floors in bathrooms and kitchens are commonplace, as with floors and walls in utility rooms, because tiles offer a waterproof and hygienic solution. For that reason, families with kids and pets tend to choose tiled floors. Tiles are also frequently used for flooring in conservatories due to them staying cooler even in the heat of summer and they can also be heated in winter using underfloor heating.
