The Differences Between Wall & Floor Tiles
Wall tiles are primarily used for decorative purposes, adding style and personality to walls in kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas. They are typically lighter and thinner, making them easier to install on vertical surfaces. These tiles come in a wide range of materials, colours, and finishes for various interior aesthetics.
Floor tiles are designed to be more resistant to wear and tear, making them durable to withstand heavy foot traffic and other stresses. They are usually thicker and stronger, with enhanced slip resistance to prevent accidents especially in outdoor tiles. These tiles are suitable for use in high-traffic areas such as kitchens, bathrooms, and entryways.
FAQs About Wall & Floor Tiles
What tile material is best for high-moisture areas?
For high-moisture areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, porcelain and ceramic wall and floor tiles are ideal due to their water resistance and durability.
Can I use the same tiles for both walls and floors?
While some tiles are suitable for both walls and floors, it's essential to consider factors like slip resistance and weight-bearing capacity before making a decision.
How do I choose the right tile size for my space?
Consider the size of the room and desired aesthetic. Larger tiles can make a small space appear larger, while smaller tiles such as mosaics can add visual interest and texture.
Do I need special tools or expertise to install wall and floor tiles myself?
While professional installation is recommended for optimal results, DIY enthusiasts can install wall and floor tiles with the right tiling tools, materials, and proper surface preparation by using the right adhesives and grouts.
