Tiles are a hygienic, mould, mildew resistant, allergy free, pet friendly and easy to manage surface that doesn’t trap dust, pollen or contaminants. Scratch-resistant, odour-free ceramic tiles are far and away one of the easiest and healthiest flooring choices in a home. As a leader in durability and practicality, it is well suited for most abodes and traffic areas as a low maintenance flooring option.

Yes! A slip rating is when a tile surface is tested for its slip resistance. These have been developed according to Australian Standards in accordance with the Australian Building Code. Please speak to our team to see where your chosen tile sits on the slip resistance test.

Sure can! Rectified tiles have square-cut edges, allowing them to be laid very close together. Non-rectified tiles have slightly rounded or ‘cushioned’ edges, which require a wider grout join.

Great question. The easiest way to explain it, all porcelain tiles are ceramic, but not all ceramic tiles are porcelain - and one is not better than the other - they’re just suited to different homes. For a ceramic tile to be porcelain, it must have very low moisture absorption, meaning it is very dense, hard and strong. Porcelain is often more expensive as it is made from different materials and is fired at higher temperatures. Porcelain is fantastic for high traffic and commercial areas, as they are impervious to water and offer a slip-resistant finish. Low traffic and residential walls are ideal for ceramic tiles, which are less expensive but still offer a high end finish. We suggest speaking to our experienced team about the best fit for you.

Floor tiles can be used on both floor and wall, while wall tiles are only safe to use on the wall, purely for the fact that floor tiles have been fired to be dense enough to walk on, unlike wall tiles.

Outdoor tiles offer additional features to indoor tiles including moisture resistance, temperature control, better slip and wear performance to suit rain, frosts and other external elements 

We strongly recommend the use of porcelain tiles in pool areas and only dot mounted mosaics are pool safe. InStyle Ceramics have a large variety of pool safe options in store to view.

Just as with other materials, natural products made in batches can vary in shades and are very normal. We often recommend ordering spare tiles to accommodate for cuts or breakages during tiling projects. Our suppliers have strict colour toning and matching quality guidelines to lessen the shade variation as much as they can. Do not mix batches and be sure to check your tiles as soon as they’re delivered to ensure you’re happy.
