What colour tiles make a kitchen look bigger?

White and light-coloured tiles like beige are great for creating a sense of space in a kitchen, making it feel bigger.

Tiles in these colours will reflect more light, making the kitchen look brighter and more open.

Should kitchen tiles be glossy or matte?

You can use either gloss or matte tiles in a kitchen.

Matte finishes make for a softer, more subdued look as they don’t reflect light as much. They’re generally more durable, as they don’t show water spots, smudges or scratches as much as gloss tiles.

Gloss tiles can make your kitchen feel larger and brighter as they provide your kitchen with a reflective surface. While they may show smudges and fingerprints, they’re easy to clean with a damp cloth.

Are kitchen tiles heat resistant?

Yes, kitchen tiles are heat resistant. However, it’s not recommended to have heat directly touching the tiles as it can crack the glaze.

Always ensure that the tiles are at least 3cm from any heat source. If they’re behind a hob, don’t let hot pans touch the tile surface.

Are big tiles better in a small kitchen?

Big tiles are a great option for a small kitchen, as they make the space feel breathier and more open.

This is because large and extra large kitchen tiles have fewer grout lines, creating a more seamless appearance.

Can you paint kitchen tiles?

Yes, you can paint kitchen tiles. You’ll need tile paint that’s compatible with your specific type of tile, and it’ll generally need at least two coats. You’ll also need to properly sand and prime the tiles.

Painting kitchen tiles is a cost-effective option, but you’ll struggle to recreate the same look that an original kitchen tile achieves. The paint will eventually crack and wear, so your tiles will likely need repainting after a year.

What is the best tile for kitchen backsplash?

Porcelain or ceramic tiles are ideal for kitchen backsplashes as they’re easy to clean as well as being moisture resistant.

Darker colours or patterned tiles can be a good choice as they don’t show specks of sauce or dirt as clearly. But even if you go for a glossy, light colour, you’ll have no problem quickly wiping them clean.

We have an entire collection of kitchen splashback tiles so you can find a style that suits your desired look.

Can you tile a kitchen worktop?

Yes, you can tile a kitchen worktop.

You can achieve a stunning aesthetic with a tiled worktop, and there are a variety of durable, heat-resistant tiles to pick from.

Porcelain is always a good choice as it's easy to clean and durable, but ceramic, marble, and other natural stone tiles can provide different looks.

One thing to consider is that tiled worktops will generally require more maintenance as grout lines can trap dirt.

How many tiles do I need for my kitchen?

The area of the floor or walls you’re looking to cover will determine how many tiles you’ll need for your kitchen.

We have a floor area calculator and wall area calculator that can help you work out how many tiles you’ll need for your project.
