Mosaic Tiles

A mosaic tile is a decorative work of art created by arranging tiles smaller than 2x2” of different materials—such as stone, glass, metal, porcelain, real pebbles, marble, travertine and more—to create a unique image or pattern. Mosaic indoor tiles add stunning, intricate designs to any space and help you achieve the spectacular statement look you dream of. Whether you want to bring a timeless touch to your kitchen or add a chic charm to your bathroom, mosaic tiles are the way to do so.

Mosaic tiles may be applied to both floors and walls. They are best suited for spaces—such as kitchens and baths that get wet on a regular basis—because these tiles make the surface slip resistant. These tiles vary significantly, featuring a host of different colours, materials, sizes, shapes and finishes. Some of the popular mosaic shapes include penny round, square, mini brick, arabesque, hexagon, basketweave, herringbone, chevron and more.

Metal and glass are ideal for use in fireplaces, bathroom walls, backsplashes, tub and shower surrounds and floors. Before fixing mosaic tiles ensure that the subflooring is smooth and strong enough to hold these tiles or will require reinforcing.

Remember, mosaic tiles that can be easily cut using a utility knife, are set in thin-set mortar. And if you are installing individual tiles, make large cuts with a snap cutter and smaller ones with a nibbling tool. Don’t forget to regularly regrout and reseal the tiles.
