How to Choose Tiles for Bathroom Walls, Floors, and Showers Every surface in a bathroom asks something different of its tile. Rating matters more than looks here, because a tile that performs on a wall can be unsafe on a floor. Match the tile to the surface first, then choose the style. Bathroom Floor Tiles For bathroom floor tiles, choose matte, textured, or mosaic formats. Smaller formats add grout lines, and grout lines are what give you grip underfoot when the floor is wet. Porcelain is the most common choice for bathroom tile flooring because it is dense, absorbs almost no water, and takes daily traffic without wearing. Hexagon and penny formats work well in smaller bathrooms where the extra grout lines add traction and the small scale suits the room. Always confirm a tile is floor-rated before specifying it underfoot. Bathroom Wall Tiles Bathroom wall tiles have an easier job, so the range opens up considerably. Glossy ceramic tiles reflect light and wipe clean, which makes them practical above vanities and behind tubs. Glass adds depth and brightness in rooms with little natural light. Handmade zellige and subway formats both suit full-height walls and bathtub tile surrounds. Matching bathroom wall and floor tile from the same collection keeps the room cohesive while letting each surface do its own job. Shower and Tub Surround Tiles Shower areas take the most constant moisture in the house and have their own wall and floor rating requirements. Our shower tiles collection gathers everything rated for wet areas, with shower wall tiles and shower floor tiles separated so you can specify each surface correctly.
