Q: Will my bathroom porcelain tiles look like the sample?

Your sample is an excellent guide for the general look, feel, finish, and thickness of your eventual bathroom porcelain tiles. With that said, we advise against using it as a guarantee of colour, veins, or fossils. Bathroom porcelain tile samples may not always show the full variation of a tile. We advise a combination of looking at photos of the bathroom porcelain tile in other customer projects, artist impressions, and scanning the QR code behind the sample for a video demonstration.

Question 1

Do bathroom porcelain tiles require sealing?

Accepted Answer

Porcelain bathroom tiles do not require sealing as they are hardly absorbent.

With that said, the grout lines for bathroom porcelain tiles should be sealed. This can be done with grout protector

Question 2

What other items do I need for bathroom porcelain tiles?

Accepted Answer

We recommend Tilemaster, Fugabella, and Bostic grout and adhesive for bathroom porcelain tiles. Your builder can provide the levelling kit, spacers, and anti-crack mats. Enjoy money off when bought together with your bathroom porcelain tiles. Adhesive is used for sticking the bathroom porcelain tiles to the floor and wall
Grout is used for the gaps between the bathroom porcelain tiles
Levelling kits are used to prevent lipping in bathroom porcelain tiles Spacers are used to ensure all your bathroom porcelain tiles are evenly spaced
Anti-crack mats ensure your bathroom porcelain tiles do not crack when the substrate expands and contracts Concrete boards might also be required for timber substrates but your builder will advise

Question 3

Should I seal grout in bathroom porcelain tiles?

Accepted Answer

Grout lines between bathroom porcelain tiles are most likely to get dirty and stain so yes! Porcelain bathroom tiles do not normally require sealing because of their low absorbency rate but the grout lines (gaps between the bathroom porcelain tiles) need to be protected. Sealing the grout lines will protect them from permanent staining. FILA has specific grout sealer products that you can select when making your bathroom porcelain tile purchase

Question 4

Are bathroom porcelain tiles slippery?

Accepted Answer

The slip resistance of bathroom porcelain tiles depends two factors; whether or not you are wearing shoes or barefoot, and if the bathroom porcelain tiles are wet or dry. We are assuming the tiles are laid flat and not on a slope!

Bathroom porcelain tiles are slip resistant when dry, barefoot or not, but please ask if you are unsure about your specific choice. To prevent slips on bathroom porcelain tiles please ensure all spills are wiped immediately. Bathroom porcelain tiles are normally a matt finish when porcelain. Polished tiles are also sometimes used in bathrooms but we would not recommend this considering the chances of the floor being wet. Polished bathroom porcelain tiles can be used on walls
