WALL TILES - STYLE, QUALITY & VALUE

Choose A Wall Tile Around Your Room

Start with the surfaces your new tiles will sit beside: cabinetry, benchtops, flooring and paint. A sample that looks right on its own can feel different against warm timber or a cool white vanity. Compare colours together before choosing your grout.

For a kitchen splashback, consider the length of the wall and the space around cupboards and power points. Subway tiles offer several layout possibilities, while larger rectangles give you a different rhythm. Ask your tiler to plan the cuts before ordering.

For powder rooms and commercial feature walls, consider how the tiles will meet adjoining surfaces and how often they will need cleaning. Ask about the requirements of your project.

Luke’s Design Tip: Take The Tiles To The Ceiling

Full-height bathroom wall tiles can make the room feel more finished. Carrying the same design behind the vanity and around the room gives fittings a consistent backdrop, while a feature wall can draw attention to one area.

Large-format 1200×600mm tiles reduce the number of grout joints compared with smaller tiles over the same wall. Check the layout around windows, niches and corners so the finished proportions work. Smaller formats can still be the right design choice for your room.

Finishes, Cleaning And Your Next Step

Compare Matt, gloss and textured samples in the light where they will be used. Think about everyday wiping as well as the appearance you want, particularly behind a cooktop or basin. Follow the care advice for the particular tile and grout.

Wall suitability does not establish floor suitability. If you want a coordinated bathroom, choose the floor for its own requirements and match the walls around it. Keep Lappato on the walls in bathrooms.
