Top 5 Tips for Selecting Great Tiles for Your Home

When building or renovating your home, choosing your tiles can be a daunting experience. After all, they are more often than not going to be a surface that you and your family will use the most every day.

 

At Aurees Tiles, we have a stunning range to ensure your home is functional and striking. Below, we have compiled a list of the top five tips to help you choose the best tiles for your new home or renovation.

 

Think About the Rooms

Whether it be your living area, laundry, bathroom, kitchen, or even your entire house, choose an option that complements the look you want to create for that space.

 

For example, larger tiles instantly add style and a sensation of space to your living areas. However, placing larger sizes in small rooms, such as your bathroom, can have the opposite effect.

 

Make Sure the Tile You Choose Comes in A Range of Sizes

More extensive options that start at 600mm in size and larger look fantastic in an open living space, such as a live room, while smaller sizes of around 300 mm create a beautiful look and help with water drainage in your home's wet areas.

 

Choosing the same style and colour in various sizes can help create a seamless transition throughout your home.

 

Choose your finish carefully.

You can create an earthy appeal using a matte or natural finish, while a gloss finish provides your home with a modern, silky look. However, it is essential to remember that dust is more likely to appear on floors with a glossy finish, but the luxurious shine throughout your home may be worth the effort.

 

Select your Feature

By choosing a feature tile for your home, you can create a stunning aesthetic and generate interest in your home. Feature designs can be included on floors and walls, but ensuring the surrounding colours blend well with your feature designs' patterns and colour choices is essential.

 

Enjoy A Timber Look Without The Hassle

Wood-look tiles are becoming increasingly popular and offer a fantastic alternative to timber floorboards. Wood-look styles are not only waterproof, but they are much easier to keep clean.

 

At Aurees Tiles, we have a tremendous range of wood-look designs ranging from lighter to deeper tones, making them perfect for any home design.

 

Why not visit the Aurees Tiles showroom and look at our fantastic tiling range for yourself? Our friendly staff can help you make an informed decision for your home and can help you with your tiling design. Give us a call today!
