DO’S AND DON’TS OF BATHROOM TILES SELECTION
There’s more to choosing the appropriate tiles for your bathroom than just color and design. To create an aesthetically attractive and functional decision, you must first understand the fundamentals.
Even the most basic of bathrooms may benefit from the use of tiles. You may have been aware that bathroom tiles come in a variety of materials that are both functional and cheap.
Whether you choose ceramic or glass, there are certain dos and don’ts to remember while choosing bathroom tiles for your house in Pakistan.
To further illustrate our argument, here are some suggestions for choosing the best bathroom tiles:
DO: PRIORITIZE SIMPLICITY.
The foundation of your bathroom may give it a distinct personality and add beauty. Tiles say loudly and are not inexpensive enough to be replaced on a regular basis. The easiest way to choose the greatest bathroom tiles is to go for simple designs with simple textures that are ageless and go well with the house’s current motif.
DO NOT: CHOOSE COMPLEX DESIGNS.
As previously said, reinstalling tiles is costly and tiles cannot be replaced on a regular basis. It’s OK to go all out and show off your home’s lavish features, but you shouldn’t take the chance with anything that will cost a lot of money and time to replace. If you want you’re washed out, avoid decorative or busy designs like borders, inlays, hectic mosaics, and accent tiles. If you want your washroom to seem ageless, avoid decorative or busy designs like borders, inlays, hectic mosaics, and accent tiles.
DO: COLOR COORDINATION IS ESSENTIAL.
It may be more difficult to combine the colors of the floor and walls if you are renovating your bathroom without the assistance of a professional. Not to add, the motif of the bathroom should match the rest of the house. So, when looking for bathroom tiles take your time and do your research.
Also, bring a rough drawing of the bathroom, some photographs [of the foundation of your house], and enlist the help of a friend for a second view. Choose matching colors that complement rather than compete with the other aspects of your bathroom.
DO NOT: EXPECT FOR IT TO WORK
Washroom tiles require more upkeep than other areas of your home, and the problem is exacerbated if you have a shared washroom. As a result, you should be highly selective in terms of design, texture, quality, and color. Don’t buy anything simply because it looks wonderful and expect it to function afterwards. If tiles are picked with care and thought, they can endure a decade. Make sure the tile’s quality complements rather than clashes with your present home’s décor and color scheme.
DO: TAKE TEXTURE INTO CONSIDERATION
The texture is one of the most difficult aspects of selecting the ideal bathroom tiles. First and foremost, bathroom tiles should be textured to ensure that they are both slip-resistant and non-porous. Furthermore, washrooms are one of the high-traffic areas of your home that stay busy all day – especially if you have children. Refined or glossy tiles reveal every blemish and enhance the risk of an accident. As a result, matte tiles are a superior choice for bathrooms.
DO NOT: INSTALL TILES THAT HAVE BEEN POLISHED.
This one is self-explanatory and requires little explanation. The floor of your bathroom is prone to moisture and is frequently damp. Furthermore, the odds of falling in the bathroom are larger than in any other area of the house. When polished or glossed tiles come into contact with water, especially soap water, they become considerably more slippery. Textured or matte tiles are your best choice in these situations. As a result, don’t put glossy tiles in your shower.
