Bathroom Tiles

What Are Bathroom Tiles?

Bathroom tiles are hard-wearing surface coverings made from porcelain, ceramic, natural stone, mosaic, or quartz. They protect walls and floors from moisture while adding design character. Available in gloss, matt, and textured finishes, bathroom tiles provide hygiene, slip resistance, and easy maintenance for wet areas such as showers, en-suites, and family bathrooms.

Why the Right Bathroom Tiles Make All the Difference

Choosing the right tiles for your bathroom is about more than style - it’s about creating a space that performs under pressure. Bathroom tiles are purpose-built to withstand the unique challenges of moisture, humidity, and fluctuating temperatures found in showers, wet rooms, and around basins.

Unlike general-purpose tiling, bathroom tiles are engineered for strength and water resistance, helping prevent damp, mould, and long-term water damage. They also play a crucial decorative role, shaping the mood and aesthetic of your entire space while providing a durable, easy-to-maintain surface that lasts for years.

What is the Cost of Bathroom Tiles?

Our bathroom tiles are available in a variety of colours, sizes, and finishes to suit every budget - without compromising on design or quality. For practical inspiration and cost-saving ideas, explore our guide to the best budget bathroom tiles.

What Types of Bathroom Tiles Are Best?

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are most commonly used in UK bathrooms. Porcelain offers high density, low water absorption (below 0.5%), and durability for floors and wet zones. Ceramic tiles are lightweight and ideal for walls. Natural stone tiles like marble, slate, or travertine add luxury but need sealing for moisture protection.

How Do I Choose the Right Bathroom Tile?

Selection depends on surface, size, and slip resistance. For bathroom floors, use anti-slip porcelain with R10–R11 ratings. For walls, select glazed ceramic tiles for easy cleaning. Light colours enlarge small spaces, while patterned or textured designs add visual depth. Matching grout tones create a seamless look.

Are Bathroom Tiles Waterproof?

Porcelain and glazed ceramic bathroom tiles are water-resistant rather than fully waterproof. They prevent water penetration when installed with proper adhesive and waterproof grout. Sealing joints and using tanking systems in wet areas ensures long-term moisture protection for floors and walls.

How Do I Clean and Maintain Bathroom Tiles?

Clean bathroom tiles regularly with a pH-neutral cleaner and a soft mop or cloth. Avoid acidic products that damage grout or polish. Re-seal natural stone tiles annually to prevent staining. Anti-slip tiles require gentle brushing to preserve texture and maintain friction across the surface.

Are Bathroom Tiles Suitable for Underfloor Heating?

Yes. Porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone tiles efficiently conduct heat and are ideal for underfloor heating systems. Low-porosity tiles distribute warmth evenly, increasing comfort. Proper adhesive selection rated for thermal movement ensures long-term bonding and prevents cracking under heat cycles.

What Type of Grout and Adhesive Should I Use for Bathroom Tiles?

Use flexible, waterproof adhesives rated C2 or higher for porcelain and natural stone tiles. Choose polymer-modified grout with low water absorption for lasting joints. Epoxy grout offers maximum stain resistance in shower areas. Always match adhesive and grout types to tile porosity and substrate material.

What Tile Sizes Work Best for Small Bathrooms?

Medium to large-format tiles (300×600 mm or 600×600 mm) reduce grout lines and create a more open look in small bathrooms. Light colours reflect more light, enhancing spaciousness. Rectified porcelain tiles laid with narrow joints increase visual continuity across walls and floors, giving compact rooms a balanced finish.
