It’s All In The Details – Tile

In the second of our three-part series on selection tips, we want to focus on tile. Backsplash, shower walls, and flooring are just a few of the many uses for tile since it is beautiful, durable, and timeless. Sometimes considered a small part of the design, it has the potential to make a big impact on the design. Here are some helpful tips when choosing tile.

Budget

This is always an important factor when making a selection, and it’s essential to discuss it at the beginning so those assisting you during this process know what to show you. Keep in mind that the more custom and unique the tile, the higher the price point.

Material

Are you looking for a sleek tile or a textured tile? Both have their place in design, but some are more durable than others, so it is important to keep that in mind. If you are looking for a backsplash, looks and budget are the biggest things to consider, but if you want tile flooring, then you need to think about whether the material is easily scratched or slip-resistant.

Style

Did you want a simple subway tile design, a unique mosaic look, or maybe you wanted a pattern created by geometric shapes? This can add visual interest to your space and make a great focal point.

Color

Tile is an easy way to add a pop of color to a space or make a subtle statement in the design. A white kitchen can come alive with a soft blue backsplash, or a mosaic pattern can create a beautiful design in the master bathroom.

Tile remains a popular choice for homeowners. It is a timeless design element and is often considered an eco-friendly option for those who want to use sustainable building materials.

Two rooms in any home have the most potential to affect the property’s appeal and value when it is put on sale: the kitchens and bathrooms. Kitchens are valued because they function as a hub where people socialize and meals are prepared. Bathrooms are important because they are where people go to relax and unwind with a hot shower. The condition of a home’s kitchen and bathroom influences its market value.

Our top priority is helping our clients achieve a space that is suited to their needs and unique lifestyles. Here are three ways we strive to do this and help you create a safe and well-thought-out space for you and your family.

Smart home technology. From voice-activated faucets to thermostats, technology has finally caught up to the home. Alexa’s name is spoken hundreds of times daily while performing multiple tasks, allowing homeowners to manage various tasks even when not at home.

Including nature’s elements in the home design remains a popular choice. Placing extra windows into the room to allow more light in or choosing eco-friendly options, such as granite countertops, are favored ways to accomplish this. Wood, however, remains the number one choice with most clients as it adds warmth and texture to the room. It also blends with multiple styles, including modern industrial and farmhouse. Even though there are numerous design benefits to incorporating wood into the design, not everyone has access to reclaimed wood or can afford to install it. Stikwood is the perfect solution.
