Gloss Tiles

Gloss tiles instantly brighten up a space, making rooms feel fresher, bigger and more open.But picking the right gloss tile, and knowing where to use it, can really shape the final look. Here are the key questions to help you choose.

 

What are gloss tiles?

Gloss tiles are ceramic or porcelain tiles with a smooth, glazed surface that gives them their shine. That glaze looks good while also making them easy to clean. They’re ideal for walls in bathrooms, kitchens and anywhere you want light to bounce.

 

Do gloss tiles make a room look bigger?

Yes, that’s one of their best tricks. The reflective surface helps spread light around the room, which makes small or darker spaces feel more open. If you’re dealing with a tight bathroom or a narrow kitchen, gloss tiles can help create a sense of space without knocking down any walls.

 

Where can gloss tiles be used?

They’re most commonly used on walls, including:

• Bathroom walls and showers
• Kitchen splashbacks
• Cloakrooms and utility rooms
• Fireplace surrounds or feature walls

Thinking about using gloss tiles on the floor? Just check the product specifications, as not all are slip-resistant enough for underfoot use.

 

Are gloss tiles easy to clean?

Very. Their smooth surface means splashes, steam, soap and spills don’t stick; just wipe with warm water and a mild cleaner. Avoid using abrasive cloths, as they can scratch the glaze and dull the finish over time.
