Outdoor tiles serve both practical and decorative purposes. Their durability protects surfaces from the elements, stains, and damage, all while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your exterior spaces. Whether used as patio, porch, or swimming pool tiles, outdoor tiles should also be slip-resistant to ensure safety, particularly when wet. Available in various colours, textures, and patterns, outdoor floor tiles can transform these areas into inviting and stylish spaces.

Maintenance Tips
Limestone and travertine tiles are known for their versatility, durability, and low-maintenance qualities. For regular maintenance, clean with a pH-neutral cleaner. Periodic deep cleaning is also important to remove stubborn dirt and grime. Use a bucket with warm water, a pH-neutral cleaner, a soft mop head, and a soft-bristled brush. Always patch-test the cleaner on a small area before applying it to a larger surface. We recommend pre-soaking the tiles, using the solution, and letting them sit for a few minutes to loosen dirt and stains before scrubbing. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with water to remove any residue. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the correct cleaner-to-water ratio to prevent damage.
Outdoor Tiles FAQs
What types of outdoor tiles are best for high-traffic areas?
The best outdoor tiles for high-traffic areas offer exceptional durability and slip resistance. Natural stone tiles, such as granite and slate, are excellent for high-traffic zones, combining durability with a timeless aesthetic. Concrete tiles provide a sturdy, practical option, perfect for pathways and patios. For a more elegant option, travertine tiles with a tumbled or rough finish ensure traction while maintaining durability. Always select tiles with a suitable slip resistance rating to ensure safety and longevity.
Can I use outdoor tiles around a swimming pool?
Yes, outdoor tiles can be used around a swimming pool, but it is important to choose tiles specifically designed for this purpose. Poolside tiles should be durable, water-resistant, and slip-resistant to ensure safety, even when wet. Materials like textured porcelain and natural stone, such as travertine or limestone tiles, are excellent options due to their strength and non-slip finishes. Proper installation and regular maintenance will enhance their performance and longevity in poolside settings.
Are outdoor tiles resistant to extreme weather conditions?
Yes, outdoor tiles can withstand extreme weather, depending on the material. Porcelain tiles are durable, non-porous, and resistant to freezing, heat, and moisture. Natural stone tiles like travertine and limestone are also strong, though they may require sealing. Concrete tiles are another good option for harsh weather. Be sure to choose tiles constructed specifically for outdoor use and install them properly for optimal durability.
How do I clean and maintain outdoor tiles?
Please consult our Tiles and Flooring Care Guide for comprehensive instructions on cleaning and maintaining outdoor tiles.
Can outdoor tiles be used for both floors and walls?
Some outdoor tiles, like our Nazilli Travertine Tile, can be used for both purposes. However, it is best to check the product description of individual tiles to confirm whether they are suitable for floors and walls.
Can I use outdoor tiles inside?
Outdoor tiles can be a practical and stylish choice in certain indoor areas. Their durability, slip resistance, and water-resistant properties make them ideal for high-traffic spaces, kitchens, mudrooms, or bathrooms where moisture and wear are common.
However, because outdoor tiles are typically thicker and more robust, you should consider whether their weight and texture suit the indoor application.
What colours are popular for outdoor living tiles?
Generally, more muted tones, like beige and grey, are more popular for outdoor living areas because they are versatile, intergrate with natural surroundings, and create a calm, neutral backdrop. Other popular colours include earthy tones like sand, terracotta, and stone and darker shades like charcoal, which can add contrast and sophistication.
