Glossy or Matt Floor tiles ?

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

I put matt but I regret, I wish I put gloss.

The Gloss makes a place look so much larger and classier and when clean look excellent. The matt look like some kind of public swimmin area changing room. It does however depend lots on the colour, size and most importantl;y the grouting width and colour. And just for the record, you can get glossy non-slip tiles. Alternatively you can get matt octagonal tiles and just put the little glossy squares in between, just to give it a little shine.

Hi k'n'G

Unless you enjoy eating hospital food, I suggest you go for matt floor tiles!

Cheers,

We've got gloss floor tiles here in myanmar on the floor of our living room and they are lethal with even a tiny amount of water on them. I've done the wet tile fandango a couple of times and it's scared the living daylights out of me!

The bathrooms here have matt tiles and are much more practical/safe.

So MATT!
