All Varieties of Tiles in Hervey Bay

Choosing the right tile size depends on the size of your room and the look you want to achieve. Larger tiles can make a small room appear bigger and are generally easier to clean due to fewer grout lines. However, they may need to be cut to fit around corners and fixtures which can lead to more waste. Smaller tiles are versatile for various spaces and are particularly popular for areas like bathrooms and laundry rooms. It's a good idea to use floor tiles that are large enough to fit the room's scale but not so large that cutting becomes excessive.

Yes, floor tiles can be used on walls. In fact, it's a common practice in Australia to extend the same floor tile up one or more walls to create a cohesive look, especially in bathrooms. However, wall tiles are generally not suitable for floor use as they are often thinner and not designed to withstand foot traffic.

Regular maintenance of tiles involves sweeping or vacuuming to remove loose dirt and dust, followed by mopping with a mild detergent solution. It's important to avoid using abrasive cleaners on tiles to prevent scratching the surface. For grout lines, a specialised grout cleaner and a small brush can be used to remove any build up. Sealing natural stone and unglazed tiles can help prevent stains and water damage. Always refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for specific cleaning and maintenance recommendations.
