What sized tiles for hallway?

5 years ago

Hi,
We're popping down tiles in the hallway, which is 115cm across as its narrowest/in the corridor through to a kitchen diner, where the tiles will run through, too. I'm unsure what size tiles to use: 45cm or 60cm square. The 60cm would effectively be 2 tiles across with a grout line in the middle. 45cm would be either 2 tiles with the stairs to the left then about 1/2 to the wall, or a central tile with even cuts either side. If 45cm we're thinking the first option as it would put the centre tile more centre to the door to the kitchen diner and patio doors.
I hope this gives a clear enough picture. If you've any queries just let me know
Many thanks,
Zach

Consider laying them on the diagonal to make the room look larger. I prefer larger tiles.
If cost wise you have to go smaller then consider brickbond

Hi Zack,

grout line in the middle is not very nice and it's normally avoided. 60x60 tiles are more modern compared with 45x45 but generally speaking you should run one full tile 60x60 in the middle and two halves on each side. If you have a good quality picture of your hallway and a quality picture of the tile(s) I can generate a CGI (computer generated image) to show you what your hallway would look like. Get in touch if you need more advice.All the best

I like the polished look, I have polished tiles from my entryway all the way to my kitchen and utility room, I have no problem with slipperyness. The key is a good entryway rug, cleaning up spillages and a good steam and microfiber mop. Your choice of tile will depend on your personal taste but I like the Greek key tiles. I think it will look fab. Also agree with buying a sample square to see how it looks before committing fully.

Both lovely. Porcelain is really tough and easy to clean. One tip, don’t have tiles that have a lot of white in them - my sister has white and grey patterned tiles and she regrets it as they really show the dirt and she is forever mopping them! However nearly of them have white in them. There are hundreds of patterned tiles available from Topps Tiles to independent stores so keep looking and you will find the right one. Whereabouts are you? The first below is similar to my sisters and the others were some I found online
