What are the benefits of kitchen wall tiles?

There’s a reason why tiles are such a popular choice for kitchen splashbacks. Not only are they available in a myriad of shapes and styles, they’re really durable and hygienic, too. Our tiles are very easy to clean - an important consideration in a hard-working room where where spills and splashes are likely to happen, every single day. With a simple cleaning regime, your home will look smart and feel healthy, with nowhere for dirt, grime or bacteria to hide.

Are kitchen wall tiles affordable?

As a whole, tiles are more affordable than other wall coverings such as glass and metallic splashbacks. We have styles and options at every price point, so there’s sure to be something that suits your budget. It’s important to note that with the right care, your new wall tiles should last for a very long time and won’t need to be replaced every few years, unlike inferior materials.

What tiles are best for kitchen walls?

In theory, most tiles can be laid on walls. However in our opinion, smaller tiles tend to work better on kitchen walls, especially if you have cabinets above your worktops. When it comes to colour and finish, there’s no right or wrong - it’s all about personal preference and your interior style. Every home is different, after all!

How easy are kitchen wall tiles to install?

Although we recommend that tiles are installed by a professional, ceramic wall tiles are a great DIY option. They’re lightweight, easy to cut and can usually be fixed using ready-mixed adhesive, saving you time and money. It’s really important that the wall they’re being fitted on is dry and flat - please read our guide for further information.

Are kitchen wall tiles easy to keep clean?

Yes - most ceramic and porcelain tiles are difficult to stain and can be quickly cleaned with a damp cloth. For more stubborn stains, you don’t necessarily need to use a specialist cleaner - a normal household cleaner will usually do the trick.

Are matt or glossy tiles best for kitchen walls?

While matt tiles tend to conceal spills and stains a little better than glossy tiles, our advice is to think about the overall look you’re trying to achieve. For example, if you’re looking to create a sleek space, then glossy tiles and cabinets will work together to give you a luxurious edge, while matt tiles usually offer a more understated appeal.

Can I use tiles behind my hob or sink?

Tiles are the ideal splashback choice as not only are they easy to clean, they’re also heat-resistant and very difficult to stain. So while they will protect your walls from high temperatures and splashes, they will also keep their good looks for many years to come - an important consideration when you’re investing in your home.

What are the latest tile trends for kitchen walls?

Although white tiles are a trend-and-tested choice for splashbacks, there’s so much choice when it comes to colour and texture. Dusky pinks and emerald greens have displaced grey as the go-to tone for modern homes, while fluted textures and herringbone patterns are quickly becoming the latest must-have. And if it’s everlasting, eye-catching style that you’re after, you really can’t go wrong with a patterned tile such as Casablanca Mix.

Do kitchen tiles need to be sealed?

Most ceramic and porcelain tiles don’t need to be sealed, to protect them from grease, oil or other spills. However, tiles with a crackle glaze should always be treated with our LTP Crackle Glaze Protector. We recommend sealing your grout joints with our LTP Grout Protector, as these are porous and can stain over time.
