Small Tiles

We define our small tiles by up to but not including the measurement of 300mm x 300mm. They are an extremely versatile type of tile with a compendium of both practical and aesthetic benefits. It is important to know how they can be used and what specific kinds of small tile you may need for your project.

What spaces are small tiles best suited for?

You really have free reign when it comes to small tiles. No matter how big or small your space, small tiles can be an excellent feature. Check out our small kitchen tiles if you want to create an eye-catching splashback, or small bathroom tiles for compact en-suite floors. They look particularly appealing on walls where their intricate designs can be admired, or if you want to opt for a classic grid-pattern for your floors, our small square tiles have got you covered.

What are the practical benefits of using small tiles?

Firstly, small tiles are often lightweight. Their weight can obviously differ depending on whether they are made from ceramic or natural stones such as slate, but compared to other tile sizes they make for easy transportation and fitting, as heavy lifting is not required as much.

If the shape of your surface is rather unique, for example curved walls, small tiles are an ideal option as they allow you to have the flexibility to work around more complex spaces. What’s more, they allow you to have more control when it comes to tight corners where a larger tile may not fit.

Small tiles are normally more cost-effective in general, but if one happens to break or weather beyond repair, it means they are also cheaper to replace. Small tiles can even offer more slip resistance due to them having more grout lines. Grout lines can create more texture, adding to their practicality. Before choosing your new small tile, learn more about R ratings and PEI ratings to ensure you have the appropriate tile slip resistance.

What makes small tiles visually unique?

Small tiles are fantastic if you have a small space and want it to appear larger. They can create an optical illusion that your bathroom or kitchen has more depth, especially when using tiles with a mirrored or polished finish.

If you want to create unique designs such as mosaics or murals, small wall tiles will give you the intricacy you need and control when it comes to detailing. You can create a work of art for your kitchen or make a truly impactful feature that will impress all of your guests.

When fitting small tiles, the design versatility is unmatched. They are perfect for minimal and simplistic homes when fitted uniformly, but can also create a sense of cohesion when used in different areas of a more maximalist space.

If you're in the market for specific brands, you're in luck. We've got plenty of tiles from unique brands like Total Tiles and Johnson Tiles to ensure you can find the desired tile for your aesthetic requirements. To help you make the right choice, we offer free next-day delivery samples on our Total Tiles brand products with the cost refunded when you order the same tile.
