Brick Effect & Metro Tiles

Got tile questions? You’re in the right place. From achieving that authentic brick look with brick effect tiles to keeping metro tiles fresh and trendy, we’ve got the answers you need to nail your next renovation.

Is it possible to get tiles that look like bricks?

Yes, you can absolutely get tiles that look like bricks. Brick effect tiles are designed to mimic the look of real exposed brick, offering a rustic look without the mess or cost of actual brickwork. These wall tiles are often made from durable porcelain or stone, making them ideal for feature walls, kitchen splashbacks or framing fireplaces.

Are metro tiles still trending?

Metro tiles are still very much in style and they’re not going anywhere anytime soon. Loved for their shape and versatile finishes, metro tiles remain a popular choice for modern bathrooms, kitchens and utility rooms. Whether you're after a glossy ripple effect for added shimmer or a clean white gloss for a classic look, these tiles continue to evolve with current design trends while offering durability and easy maintenance.

Are metro tiles hard to keep clean?

Metro tiles are easy to keep clean thanks to their smooth, glazed surfaces that resist stains and wipe down easily. The grout lines, however, can soak up dirt and discolour over time, especially in steamy bathrooms.
