FAQs
Can I use the same tiles for both the floor and walls?
We do stock tiles suitable for floor-to-wall tiling, but there are certain considerations and requirements to keep in mind. First, ensure the tiles are designed to handle the weight and traffic of a floor. Second, check if the tiles have a slip-resistant rating for floor use. When shopping for tiles with Wickes, the recommended usage is listed in the product details to help you make an informed decision.
Can you paint bathroom tiles?
Yes. We stock interior and exterior tile paint. For bathroom tiles, check the paint is waterproof before purchasing. Then you’ll need to follow these steps:
- Clean the tiles thoroughly to remove any dirt, grease or grime.
- Lightly sand the tiles to create a rough surface for the paint to adhere to.
- Apply a high-quality tile primer to ensure proper adhesion and durability. Allow the primer to dry completely before applying the paint.
- Apply thin and even coats of paint. Allow each coat to dry according to the manufacturer's instructions before applying additional coats.
- Once the final coat is dry, apply a tile sealant or topcoat for added protection.
- It's important to note that painted tiles may require periodic touch-ups and might not be as durable as the original tile surface.
How do you clean bathroom tiles?
To clean bathroom tiles, mix a solution of warm water and mild detergent or a specially formulated tile cleaner. Use a soft brush or mop to gently scrub the tiles, paying extra attention to grout lines. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry the tiles with a towel or allow them to air dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers, as they can damage the tiles. Regular maintenance is essential to keep your bathroom tiles looking clean and fresh. It’s a good idea to deep clean every 2 to 3 months to remove any stubborn stains and maintain the longevity of your tiles.
