Ask your QuestionI’d like to have new tiles fitted to my bathroom. What are the best types/materials I should go for when looking for durability? Our previous bathroom tiles developed a lot of problems over the years and we’re looking to replace them as they seem beyond repair at this point. We’d like tiles that are easy to maintain/clean and that are durable. What would you recommend?

Porcelain tiles are easy to clean using soap and warm water.
Floor tiles use non slip always due to water/moisture causing falls slips ect"
"Hi,
All tiles ease to maintain and clean. The biggest problem is with grout joints. The material must be chosen not the cheapest anti-mould one. Then light colours in time will become yellowish or greyish so you can choose right that colour. And tiles must be instaled by all standards with a waterproof membrane and on floor anti-cracking matt apply before tiles hoes on.
Hope it helps, if you need professional tiling service please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Thank you"
