Black tiles on the floor?
Marisol Garces
6 years ago
I have enclosed my porch and changed the front door with a new composite door in oak colour. I was planning to put black tiles on the floor and render the brick wall to tie in with the hallway walls, which are painted on F&B Cornforth White.
Now, I kind of like the exposed brick and am thinking to leave it as is. I'm also wondering whether the floor would be better in a colour similar to the brick wall.
Suggestions please! The floor will be ready to be tiled next week.

Black grout with large white tiles?
Comments (10)You might be pleasantly surprised how different it will look when you change the wall colour. Perhaps if you didn't that first, you'd not need to change the grout. I'd agree; if the tiles aren't symmetrical then a darker grout line would highlight this. I'd also agree that dark grey would look great - you have this in your floor mats and it looks nice against your gorgeous floor tiles. We went grey in our ensuite. Hubby was concerned it would be dark, but we love it. Worst case - if you change your mind, paint is an easy swap. Good luck ;)...See MoreCream tiles with Walnut Black gloss - lost !
Comments (3)I think either is totally acceptable. You'll have to be careful with whites, they'll make the floor look dirty as it's cream. You'll be better off with palest cream or pale warm grey on the rest of the walls. Generally cream and white just don't sit well together....See Morewhat colour wood floor?
Comments (13)Colours are always a hard choice edwinajarrad, perhaps some of our projects will give you some ideas, we'll attach the links below.

And also if you decide to go for a different colour in the distant future you can always sand it down and re-oil/stain to your heart's content. We hope this helps in your decision making, and please feel free to request some samples from our website www.woodfloors4u.co.uk...See Moreblack tiled bathrooms
Comments (11)We did black and dark slate tiles in our bathrooms. The plain black actually had a subtle sparkle which helped bounce the light. I never regretted either and plan to do something similar in our new house. The slate bathroom was windowless but the huge mirror overcame the lack of natural light. Go for it!...See More

6 years agoI would fit coir matting from wall to wall. There are the practical benefits but also the similar colour to the wood floor in the hallway adds continuity.
This can be easily sourced in lots of colours from carpet specialists.
