? Essential Benefits of Quality Tiling

Modern bathroom floor tiles are engineered specifically for wet environments, offering crucial advantages over other flooring types:

• Highly Water-Resistant: Unlike laminate or wood, porcelain bathroom floor tiles have extremely low porosity, preventing water absorption and protecting the subfloor from moisture damage.
• Anti-Slip Options Available: Safety is paramount. Look for a tile with an R-rating of R10 or R11, ensuring optimal grip even when the floor is wet. Explore our range of anti-slip tiles for peace of mind.
• Easy to Clean and Hygienic: Non-porous surfaces and hard-wearing glazes mean a quick wipe is all that's needed to maintain hygiene, making them ideal for all bathroom spaces.
• Durable and Long-Lasting: Quality bathroom floor tiling will not fade, warp, or wear down under daily traffic, guaranteeing decades of stylish performance.

? Bathroom Floor Tile Design Ideas

Your bathroom floor tiles set the tone for the entire room. Use these design tips to maximise style and space:

Light Colours to Make Small Bathrooms Feel Bigger

In compact spaces, using light-coloured floor tiles, such as white, light grey, or cream, reflects light and minimizes visual distraction, creating the illusion of a larger, more airy bathroom.

Pair with Mosaic Accents for Luxury

For a high-end, bespoke look, combine plain, large-format floor tiles with detailed mosaic accents. Use the mosaics to line a shower niche, create a border, or frame the mirror.

The Continuity of Wood-Effect Tiling

Want the warmth of wood in a wet environment? Our wood-effect bathroom floor tiles offer incredible realism, are completely waterproof, and are suitable for use with underfloor heating.

?️ Installation and Maintenance of Bathroom Floor Tiling

Proper installation with the right materials is essential to ensure a waterproof and lasting finish in your bathroom.

Essential Tiling Products

For a durable and secure installation:

• Adhesive: We recommend BAL Rapid-Flex One Grey Adhesive 20kg, a flexible adhesive suitable for the small movements that can occur in bathroom subfloors.
• Grout: Use a waterproof, mould-resistant product like BAL Micromax2 Grout 5kg. In high-moisture areas, this prevents discolouration and ensures a hygienic finish.

Maintaining Your Bathroom Floor Tiles

Keep your floor clean and safe with minimal effort:

• Clean with a non-abrasive solution like LTP Grimex Tile Cleaner 1L for periodic deep cleaning.
• Wipe up large standing pools of water immediately to prevent excess moisture buildup around silicone seals.

❓ FAQs About Bathroom Floor Tiles

Q: Are bathroom floor tiles suitable for wet rooms?

A: Yes, perfectly, provided they have a suitable anti-slip R-rating (R10 or higher is best) and are properly tanked (waterproofed) underneath. Porcelain tiles are the best material for wet room environments.

Q: Can I use wall tiles on the bathroom floor?

A: Generally, no. Wall tiles are not manufactured with the same density or durability (PEI rating) as floor tiles and would be prone to cracking under foot traffic.

Q: What is the best colour grout for bathroom floor tiles?

A: Darker grey or charcoal grout is highly recommended, as it hides dirt and minimizes the visual impact of mildew or staining far better than white grout.
