Get A Fresh New Style In The Kitchen And Bathroom
Are you thinking of changing your kitchen tiles? Well, think no more. Brick-shaped tiles are the height of fashion right now . Retro ones are inspired by the type used in some London underground stations, and perfectly suit period homes . But if that´s not your style, don´t give up on your brick-shaped dream. Contemporary glass and oversized designs mean that there´s something to suit everyone and for every kind of budget .These tiles look particularly good surrounded by clean, modern accessories. In the kitchen there are a whole host of items which work well with them, from a sleek chrome espresso machine, to the more mundane containers for everyday items like bread, coffee and tea. Scented candles also work well with these type of tiles, especially if you are fiting them in the kitchen or in the bathroon. A plain white brick shaped tile on the bathroom wall makes the perfect backdrop for a selection of pretty coloured votice candles, especially if you decide to go for candles at the higher end of the market by brands such as yankee candles and true grace candles, to name but a few. Also in the barthroom brick shape tiles are great on the wall, where you can also fix towel rails and other storage items to keep things neat and tidy.
When buying tiles , make sure all of them come from the same batch to avoid variations in colour. Check them to make sure they aren´t damaged in any way and then mix them up so any slight differences between boxes are distributed. It´s always a good idea to buy quite a few extra tiles than you actually need to allow for mistakes, cutting and wastage. If you prefer the easy way out, you could lay new tiles over existing ones, but do remember that layers of tiles don´t look too good! If you wish to avoid this, or you want to tile less or more of the walls, carefully remove the existing tiles and start from scratch. The most important thing is to make sure the are clean, dry and flat before you start the job.
When you are tiling and notice that some tiles are protruding from the wall, prise them out, reduce the amount of adhesive and fit again. On the other hand, if you see that they are sunken, apply more adhesive. Another useful tip is to use coloured grout around the hob, and in other places if you live in a hard-water area, to avoid discolouration-grey grout goes well with white tiles. If you have to cut some tiles, it can be quite tricky . The best thing is to get a loan of an electric, water-cooled diamond wheel tile cutter. Measure and mark your tiles first, and always wearing goggles when cutting.
