Top 10 Tips for Choosing Right Tile For Your Living Room

April 5, 2016DianeTiling Tips

Some years back, home owners were contented with having their living rooms fitted with the usual concrete floor, and then have a carpet above, and that was it. Others would go for wooden floors, although this was not very common. But with time, tiles started becoming the preferred choice of many and today, a living room with tiles is the ultimate desire and wish of every home owner and interior designer. Tiles are unique and stylish, easier to clean, and they give your living room a grand and classy look that can’t be achieved suing anything else.

Below are 10 tips that you can use to guide you before picking the right tiles for your living room;

  1. Size of your living room; the size of your living room will determine the exact kind of tiles that you need. This is especially so considering that tiles come in different measurements, from the small, normal sized tiles, to the modern large tiles that are frequently being used in luxurious homes.
  2. Design of living room; what’s the color of the living room’s walls, sofas, curtains, and other furniture pieces around the living room? Because you want the tiles to blend in well with the existing living room design and arrangement, it is important that you consider the room’s design.
  3. Slippery; some tiles are more slippery than others when wet. Avoid going for tiles that will get slippery when wet, as these may cause accidents around the house.
  4. Light colors; light color tiles always look great when used in the living room; they also make the room look bigger and well lit.
  5. No compromise; never compromise on the quality of the tiles just because of the cost. Always view tiles as an investment and as such, their quality and suitability for use should always guide you, not their cost.
  6. Maintenance; find out about the maintenance requirements of any tiles before purchasing.
  7. Installing; installing floor tiles is always a tricky task, and you should enquire about how the tiles you’re interested in are fitted. You may require hiring a professional to help you get the job done.
  8. Be creative; even before you buy or install the tiles, you must have an idea of what you want to achieve in terms of interior design.
  9. Professional advice; it doesn’t hurt to seek the guidance and opinion of an interior designer, on the right living room tiles to go for.
  10. Grout lines; you must ensure that grout lines are taken care of, first by ensuring that that the installation is done perfectly, then picking colors that will help these lines blend in smoothly.
