FAQ
Q1. How do I choose the right tiles for each room?
Choosing the right tiles depends on how each room is used. Bathrooms and laundries require water-resistant and slip-resistant tiles, while kitchens need durable, easy-to-clean surfaces. Living rooms and bedrooms often focus on comfort and style, making large format porcelain tiles and timber look tiles popular choices. Our Shop Tiles by Room collection makes it easy to find the ideal tiles for every area of your home.
Q2. What are the best bathroom tiles?
Porcelain bathroom tiles are one of the most popular choices because they are highly durable, water-resistant and easy to maintain. Matte porcelain tiles are recommended for bathroom floors to improve slip resistance, while gloss or satin wall tiles help reflect light and create a brighter, more spacious bathroom.
Q3. Which kitchen tiles are the most durable?
Porcelain tiles are considered one of the best options for kitchen floors due to their strength, stain resistance and low maintenance. They can withstand heavy foot traffic, dropped cookware and
everyday spills, making them ideal for busy family kitchens. Large format kitchen tiles also reduce grout lines for easier cleaning.
Q4. Can I use the same tiles throughout my entire home?
Yes. Many homeowners choose the same porcelain floor tiles throughout their kitchen, living room, dining area and hallway to create a seamless, modern appearance. Using consistent flooring
throughout an open-plan home can also make spaces feel larger and more connected.
Q5. What tiles are best for living rooms?
Living rooms benefit from durable and stylish floor tiles that can handle daily foot traffic. Large format porcelain tiles, stone look tiles, concrete look tiles and timber look porcelain tiles are all popular choices, offering the beauty of natural materials with minimal maintenance.
Q6. Can indoor tiles be used outdoors?
Not all indoor tiles are suitable for outdoor use. Outdoor areas require tiles with higher slip resistance and greater weather durability. If you're renovating patios, balconies or pool surrounds, choose porcelain outdoor tiles specifically designed for external applications.
