Tile flooring for staircases?

Many homeowners ask us about using tile flooring for staircases, which adds impressive visual appeal and elegance to any space. In addition, the surfaces are easy to clean and maintain, which means they?ll last longer, so here are more facts as you consider this remodel for your home.

Tile flooring is an excellent choice


The vital step is to ensure that your staircase can withstand the weight of the tile flooring you choose, though lighter products are sometimes possible. Also, ensure the tile you select is suitable, guarding against slipping and the injuries it can cause.

Ceramic tile is an excellent choice for this space, offering strong, hard-wearing surfaces that resist stains, cracks, chips, and fire. However, porcelain tile is often the material of choice for this space, as it's harder and denser, offering better results than ceramic.

We?ll also discuss the type of edging you want for your stairs, with bullnose options offering a rounded finish and a smooth transition from one step to the next. These pieces can save time and effort that would otherwise be used in cutting and fitting a regular tile to this area.

Grouting is the final tile flooring step and requires at least 24 hours to set. We?ll discuss all your grout options once you choose the products you want to ensure you get the best fit for your needs.
