If you’re looking for consistency, the British weather during the summertime isn’t the place to start. We all know how temperamental conditions in the UK can be, so when a glorious day comes our way it’s important to make the most of it.
With the 2019 summer months on their way, homeowners with gardens and outdoor spaces have a great opportunity to revamp these areas and create a little piece of their own personal heaven.
With this in mind, at Stone Tile Company we have a great selection of tile options that are suitable for outdoor use.
So if you’re seeking to revamp an outdoor space, you can find the ideal tiling selection for your tastes and requirements at Stone Tile Company.
How can tiles be used outdoors?
Most people think of the ideal garden as a green paradise with luscious lawns and fine flowers. And in truth, we can’t argue with this!
But there are plenty of parts of a garden that require sterner surfaces. Patios and terraces are the perfect spot to relax and unwind in, overlooking the rest of your garden in peace. These areas are also great for hosting parties, get togethers and barbeques in the summer months.
Equally, if space is of a premium, then tiles can help you make the most of what is available and provide you with the kind of relaxing area you want.
Why not extend your living space into the outdoors by using outdoor porcelain tiles? Porcelain tiles won’t draw moisture in the same way other paving materials. This is hugely beneficial when it comes to avoiding surface staining, as well as algae and moss developing. These tiles are also fade & frost resistant, making them a great option for external areas as they will not lose their visual impact over time. If you’re seeking really contemporary tiles that suit modern living aesthetics, this is a great option to go for.
Even when the weather’s less than ideal, outdoor tiles allow you to make a space that looks good from all angles – even if that’s on your sofa as the rain pours outside!
If you’re looking to create a authentic modern look the real beauty of stone tiles flowing from indoors to outdoors will seamlessly extend your living area with style.
Matching the tiles you select in your living room or kitchen for example with those of an outdoor patio help create a continuous aesthetic across the interior and exterior, tying together the feel of your home and garden beautifully.
Outdoor tiles are also a strong option for exterior feature walls. Creating a distinctive, eye-catching façade using strong outdoor tiles allows you to reach the desired levels of charm and sophistication in your outdoor space.
You can also tile retaining walls & Water Features. This is a great low-maintenance option when compared to painting for example, as regular treatment won’t be required and the tiles won’t lose their look over time.
And have you heard of the outdoor kitchen trend? There’s been a real growth in people creating stunning exterior spaces for dining, entertaining and relaxing in with friends and family. Tiles are the perfect base for such spaces, helping to make a peaceful ambience while also being great from a practicality point of view. You could add a BBQ or what about a wood fired pizza oven and clad in split face mosaic for low maintenance and most importantly designer style.
