Choosing perfect flooring for the store

The choices you make for your bathroom will have an impact on its overall finish, so you want to make sure you choose well. From fixtures to tiles to vanities, there's so much to consider. If you're in a quandary and cannot decide between matte or glossy finishes for your bathroom wall tiles, consider these factors to help you arrive at a conclusion: 

What Kind of Space Are You Working With? 

The size of your bathroom will have an impact on your choice between glossy and matte wall tiles. For example, glossy tiles have reflective surfaces, so light bounces off them and infuses a sense of space into the area. This makes them an ideal choice when you have a smaller bathroom and want to add the appearance of spaciousness. While matte tiles don't reflect light, they offer a subtle and classy appearance for those who prefer understated looks and don't have to worry about space issues in their bathroom. 

How Much Are You Willing to Clean Your Bathroom Wall Tiles? 

Because glossy tiles reflect light easily off the surface, they are prone to showing off stains, fingerprints, soap marks and other dirt more easily than matte-finished tiles. With this in mind, you will need to put in an extra cleaning effort if you choose glossy tiles for your bathroom. The good news is that these glossy tiles simply need a thorough wipe down to be cleaned. If you're looking for something that is easier to maintain, then matte tiles are the way to go for your bathroom walls because they tend to conceal imperfections, water drops and stains more easily. 

What Level of Continuity Are You Looking For? 

Depending on the size of your bathroom, you may decide to use the same tiles for your walls and floors. But glossy tiles are smooth and tend to be more slippery, which is why they are not really suited to floors. If continuity is a big factor for you, then you may choose matte tiles. The best choice is a possible blend of both types of tiles on your walls and floors, using the opportunity to infuse a combination of textures and styles. You can make sure you have a uniform appearance by choosing the same colour gloss and matte tiles for your walls and floors if you decide to blend both options together. 

Choosing between matte and glossy finishes requires you to consider a few factors before finalising the right option for your wall tile needs.
