Tile Installations: Different Styles and Where They Work Best

Apr 18, 2024

There's no denying that well-chosen, professionally installed tile can greatly enhance the aesthetic appeal of any residential or commercial space. Tiles are available in various materials, shapes, patterns, and colours, providing a plethora of design options for homeowners. Today, we'll explore various styles of tile installations and identify the spaces where they work best to help you make the most informed decision for your next home renovation project.


One of the most popular styles of tile installation is ceramic. Ceramic tiles are versatile, durable, and relatively easy to maintain, making them an excellent choice for various areas within a home. Best suited for kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways, ceramic tiles resist moisture, stand up to high traffic, and can endure the wear and tear of everyday life.


Porcelain tiles, a subset of ceramic tiles, are fired at higher temperatures, resulting in a more dense and less porous tile. As such, porcelain tiles are even more robust and water-resistant than standard ceramic tiles. This makes porcelain a superb selection for outdoor areas such as patios or exterior walls, as they can withstand extreme temperatures, heavy foot traffic, and exposure to water without losing their charm.


Natural stone tiles, encompassing granite, travertine, marble, slate and more, inject an authentic and sophisticated feel into any space. These tiles are perfect for creating a luxurious ambiance in living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms. Moreover, they can add a spa-like feel to bathrooms, while in the kitchen, they can serve as stunning backsplashes. While these tiles require a bit more maintenance, the outcome is typically worth the extra effort.


Glass tiles, with their ability to reflect light, can brighten up any room and make it seem larger. They are an ideal choice for creating a captivating and modern backsplash in the kitchen or adding a dash of glamour to the bathroom walls.


Mosaic tiles, famous for their unique patterns and bold colours, can add a dramatic touch to an otherwise mundane space. This style of tile is perfect for crafting a visually enticing accent wall, a beautiful kitchen backsplash, or an ornate bathroom floor.


Each style of tile installation offers its own benefits and aesthetic, and the best choice depends on your personal taste, budget, and the specific needs of the room in question. When choosing a tile, consider not only the design but also the durability, maintenance, and how it will fit into your overall design scheme.
