A Clean Finish Starts at the Edge
Tile trims are one of those small details that can make a big difference to the finished space.
They’re used to cover and protect exposed tile edges, creating a clean transition where the tile finishes. You’ll commonly see trims used around bathroom niches, external corners, splashbacks, half-height tiled walls and other areas where the edge of the tile would otherwise be visible.
Why Use a Tile Trim?
Aside from creating a more finished look, trims also help protect exposed tile edges from chips and everyday wear.
They can be used to either blend into the design or become a feature of their own.
- Match the trim to the tile for a subtle, seamless finish
- Choose a contrasting trim to highlight the edge and create a more defined detail
- Coordinate with tapware or fittings to tie the overall palette together
Matching Your Trim to Your Tile
We’re seeing more and more projects using trims that closely match the tile colour.
Instead of the trim standing out, it becomes part of the overall finish, helping tiled edges, niches and corners feel more considered and seamless.
With trims now available in a wider range of colours and finishes, you’re no longer limited to traditional silver or chrome.
Where Are Trims Usually Used?
Tile trims are particularly useful anywhere you have an exposed tile edge, including bathroom niches, shower walls, kitchen splashbacks, external corners and tiled feature walls.
The correct trim size will also depend on the thickness of your tile, so it’s worth selecting your tile first and matching the trim to suit.
Tile + Trim in One Place
At InStyle Ceramics, you can select your tiles in our showroom and then match them with a range of trim colours available through our Trade Centre.
Having both in one place makes it easier to compare colours and finishes before installation and choose the combination that works best for the project.
