Ready to start your renovation? Here are 18 reasons why tiles should be in your home.

1. They will look as good as the day they were installed for decades: Ceramic and porcelain tile are some of the longest-lasting flooring products on the market today. When properly installed they’ll look as good in 20 years as they do today. 
2. Ideal for homeowners with allergies: If you have concerns about allergies and asthma, tiles are a great solution. They don’t build up dust and dirt, support mould or mildew.
3. Easy to maintain: Tiles are easy to clean, often only with warm water, eliminating the need for chemicals and cleaners needed to maintain other types of floors.
4. Water-resistant: Modern tiles have a porosity of around 0.5%, meaning they don't absorb water.
5. Holds up in high-traffic areas: Porcelain floor tile is an ideal choice for the areas in the home of high traffic and will outperform other tiles in both long- term appearance and durability.
6. 1000’s of different designs and styles: At Tile Space we stock over 150,000 sqm in our tile warehouse and 1000’s of different designs. We have Art Deco, Contemporary, Wood Look, Concrete Look, Marble Look, Exterior and everything in between.
7. All shapes & sizes: From Small to XL, tiles come in many shapes and sizes. There are pros and cons to each such as 600x600 being easy to lay, but larger tiles make the space look bigger and have less grout lines.
8. Matching floor & wall: Porcelain tiles can be used on floors and walls therefore you can use the same tile to make the space look cohesive. Continuing materials from the floor to the ceiling creates the illusion that the area is larger.
9. Keep up with trends: To stay on trend, and get the look just right we source our tiles from Italian companies with top designers and sophisticated production techniques.
10. They can be personalised: Unleash your creativity with beautiful custom and standard mosaic solutions for interiors, pools or even garages. Made in Italy since 1956 Bisazza is the world’s premier luxury mosaic brand, available exclusively from Tile Space.
11. Create a feature: From Encaustic look to Subway, decorative tiles are a great way to create a feature wall or floor and will make your space pop.
12. For indoor & outdoor use: Tile Space have a range of tiles that can be used both indoor and outdoor so you can keep your space looking cohesive with an indoor/outdoor flow.
13. Replicate natural materials: Modern tile manufacturers utilise sophisticated printing techniques which replicate natural surfaces realistically, offering almost limitless design options.
14. Can be installed with underfloor heating for colder months: Tiles are good heat conductors, so they do get cold easily in the winter. Because of this they go well with underfloor heating. Tile Space stock ‘Warmfloor’, a New Zealand owned company who offer cost effective and easy DIY underfloor heating.
15. Fire resistant: Tiles have already been fired at more than 1200 degrees, so they do well in the fire resistance department. They are non-combustible and won’t give off toxic chemicals in a fire.
16. Environmentally friendly: Tiles are manufactured from clay, sand and water, with ultra-low VOCs. Because they can replicate natural products so well, they help protect against the unsustainable depletion of natural products like marble and timber.
17. Something for every budget: At Tile Space, we have a range to suit every budget. We source our tiles from Italy, Spain, Brazil, UAE and Asia. The country of origin usually impacts the price and quality; however, we have excellent relationships with all our suppliers and we guarantee all our tiles for 10 years.
18. Peace of mind: Tile Space has introduced a 15-year extended system warranty for all products (tiles, grouts, adhesives) purchased from Tile Space.
