Why Are Wall Tiles Better Than The Alternatives?

A lot of people find themselves drawn to the low material and work costs of wall surfaces like paint and wallpaper. However, we believe that there are a range of benefits to wall tiles that make them a great alternative.

– Easy to clean

Spills and stains happen – it’s just a part of life at home. That makes surfaces that are easy to clean particularly appealing. Dirt and blemishes can quickly ruin a nice paint job or some new wallpaper. Tiles, on the other hand, are incredibly easy to clean and keep looking shiny and new.

Marks and dirt can really detract from a room’s sense of style and comfort. Alongside this is the fact that recoating your kitchen walls or bathroom walls with fresh paint or new wallpaper means additional costs. After the initial costs, there’s very little re-investment needed for wall tiles.

– Your waterproof walls

Under wet and moist conditions, paint and wallpaper can easily begin to peel and even harbour mould. Tiles, however, are waterproof by their nature, reducing your risk of mould substantially.

In functional rooms such as your kitchen, and particularly your bathroom, this feature is hugely valuable. You can easily use a cloth or sponge and some cleaning product to keep your wall tiles shiny and clean.

– Versatility

When it comes to the walls of your bathroom, kitchen and other rooms in your home, you need to find a design that reflects your own individual style. Here at Raynesway, we feel this is easy to achieve by choosing a matt or glossy tile in a large or small format, will create the look you are striving for.Wall tiles come in a wide range of different sizes, shapes, styles, colours and designs. With them, you can ensure that the walls of your home match your unique style.

– Durability

Ever get sick of having to recoat your walls with fresh paint or wallpaper on a regular basis, just to keep up with the unavoidable general wear and tear of daily living? A lot of people do, and here at Raynesway, we completely understand. We like the fact that wall tiles are such a durable and resistant walling solution that combines style and flexibility with strength and reliability.

Regardless of the costs of your tiles and their installation (if not installing them yourself), tiles last long enough to more than prove their worth and ensure cost-effectiveness in the long term. High-quality and professionally-installed tiles can last for years to come – a great solution for anyone sick of repainting their walls every few years!

What’s The Difference Between Wall Tiles And Floor Tiles?

You might be wondering what exactly the difference is between wall tiles and floor tiles. After all, how different can they be? Whether you’re looking for wall tiles or floor tiles, the surface and the base material (biscuit) may look the same but there is a difference:

Wall Tiles – These are generally made from a white or red clay base (biscuit) then coated with a wall glaze finish which is generally softer than a floor glaze finish, as it is not required to have the structure or strength needed to withstand constant wear as a floor tile is.

Floor Tiles – These are predominantly made (nowadays) from porcelain which is a much more dense and harder type of clay therefore making a porcelain tile more robust. Generally the glaze (surface coating) fired to a floor tile is harder than a wall tile glaze which makes it a lot more resistant to wear and scratching etc. Some porcelain tiles do not have any glaze surface whatsoever, so the glaze wear is irrelevant in this situation, but they may need a seal to prevent any staining.
