Designed For Durability
Outdoor spaces are exposed to far more stress than indoor areas, so proper installation is essential. Choosing the right tile type and preparing the surface to prevent lifting, shifting or cracking makes a big difference. Uneven ground, moisture, and direct sunlight can all affect how outdoor tiles wear over time. Our approach includes using suitable adhesives and grout, creating fall for water run-off, and allowing room for tile expansion in heat.
Done right, outdoor tiling doesn’t just boost visual appeal—it adds safety, value, and functionality to your outdoor living space with minimal maintenance.
What tiles are best for outdoor use?
Tiles used outdoors should be rated for exterior applications, which usually means they’re dense, weather-resistant, and slip-safe. Porcelain tiles are a common choice due to their low porosity and durability. Textured surfaces help prevent slipping, especially in areas exposed to rain. Natural stone like travertine or granite can also work well but may need sealing and more maintenance.
Does outdoor tiling need waterproofing?
While not all outdoor areas need full waterproofing, moisture management is critical. Waterproof membranes may be necessary for areas directly connected to the house or built over living spaces. For patios and paths, proper slope and drainage design are often more important than traditional waterproofing. Water should be able to run off easily to avoid pooling and surface damage.
How do you stop outdoor tiles from becoming slippery?
The best way to reduce slipperiness is to choose tiles with a textured or non-slip finish. Many outdoor tiles are rated for slip resistance (often noted as R-ratings). In high-risk areas, you can also consider anti-slip treatments or coatings that increase surface grip. Regular cleaning helps prevent build-up of algae or moss, which can make tiles slick when wet.
