Bathroom Tiles Windsor Practically Stunning

When you set out to purchase your bathroom tiles in Windsor, you may only have aesthetics in mind. The beauty and luster of natural stone floors is undeniable! All the more reason why you should consider maintaining the beauty of your tiles before you decide which type of tile is right for you. Thinking about cleaning your new natural stone floors before you buy them might seem like putting the cart before the horse, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Tile flooring can be a substantial investment and therefore you will want to make sure you are getting the right tile for your application. Knowing how much effort you will have to put into cleaning, maintaining, and preventing damage may help you decide which tile is appropriate for each area of your bathroom.

 

 

When it comes to natural stone flooring tiles, preventing damage will be your foremost consideration. Placing absorbent floor mats in your bathroom will go a long way to ensuring that moisture isn't allowed to sit on the tile and cause etching or unsightly staining. Make sure that the mats have a non-slip backing and will not allow moisture to seep through onto your floor. The natural stone flooring tiles in your bathroom should be kept clean using a slightly damp soft mop with a mild nonabrasive cleaner. Check with your tile retailer for recommended cleaners for the type of natural stone you have chosen to install. As well as keeping your natural stone tiles clean, you will want to ensure that all spills are cleaned up immediately. Flooring such as marble for instance is extremely slippery when it is wet, and in a bathroom application this could prove dangerous if spills are not taken care of right away. Marble countertops should also be kept free from moisture as much as possible as well. The finish can be worn down over time allowing for spills to cause nasty stains that could irreversibly damage your natural stone bathroom tiles forever. Natural stone is often a very porous material and while it is gorgeous when it is taken care of, it isn't always the best choice in some areas of the home.

 

 

Ceramic tiles are an excellent choice for all surfaces in your bathroom. Ceramic can be used for floors, walls, countertops, shower stalls and tub surrounds. Ceramic is non-porous and therefore one hundred percent waterproof. There is no fear of ceramic staining or etching if moisture isn't wiped from it immediately. Ceramic tiles do not hold on to odor and they are not susceptible to mold. Ceramic tile is also very easily cleaned and maintained. These attributes allow ceramic tile to be a very attractive option for tiling all the surfaces in your bathroom. Compared to natural stone, ceramic is less expensive as well. If you have a large area to cover, this option may be more budget friendly.

 

Choosing the right bathroom tiles for your Windsor home is a matter of choice, practicality, and budget. No matter which you choose, your style will shine through in the finishes.
