Slippery tiles can be dangerous in your home, especially if there are children or seniors living there. Loss of grip while walking or making an error in judgment could result in accidents leading to falls and injuries for everyone present.
Slip-resistant bathroom tiles Adelaide come in various designs and finishes to fit into any tyle of space, be it marble-looking tiles or trendy concrete-look flooring. You’re sure to find the ideal design and finish combination.
Peace of Mind
Slip-resistant tiles can help reduce accidents in bathrooms by withstanding high levels of traffic and being resistant to scratches and scuffs, providing peace of mind that your family and guests are safe while using it.
Slip-resistant bathroom tiles may also save time, energy, and money in terms of maintenance costs. As they’re less susceptible to moisture and water absorption, cleaning them less frequently becomes a much simpler task – leaving more time and energy available for other tasks around the home that need completing! Investing in slip-resistant tiles will allow for reduced hassle when it comes time for maintenance duties!
Durability
Bathrooms are among the most frequently used spaces in a house, making them susceptible to accidents like slipping. Slips can be especially hazardous when there are children or seniors present as they may not have adequate gripping power on wet surfaces. Anti-skid tiles offer an affordable way to provide a safer walking surface by keeping feet secure with their high coefficient of friction value even on wet floors.
Porcelain stoneware tiles come in many styles and finishes to meet the design preferences of every homeowner, including premium natural looks that evoke marble finishes as well as rough textures for anti-slippery protection.
Ceramic tiles are also more hygienic than other slip-resistant bathroom tiles Adelaide options, as they resist grazes and blemishes and discoloration while remaining resistant to discoloration and fading – ideal for areas that experience heavy traffic such as bathrooms. Furthermore, they can easily be cleaned using either vacuuming or mopping methods – making this type of surface ideal for heavy traffic areas like bathrooms.
Water Resistant
Bathrooms are an integral part of every home and should be treated as such, being places that see high humidity levels and moisture accumulation, making them the perfect place for slip-resistant tiles to be placed.
Slip resistant floors are easy to maintain, durable and can meet accessibility standards without being boring – there is even textured porcelain floor tile available that mimics marble for an authentic appearance without risk of slipperiness.
There are porcelain stoneware floors that emulate natural woodgrain flooring for an updated look with increased traction or go for ceramic tiles with eye-catching ornaments for a unique design that matches other elements in your bathroom.
Slip resistance of tiles is measured by their traction and grip, water absorption capacity and durability. To keep yourself safe in your home environment, select tiles with R12 or R13 ratings for barefoot areas or an equivalent coefficient of friction value over 0.6.
Versatility
Tiles are a common flooring material, but certain areas require slip-resistant tiles designed specifically to handle wet conditions like the swimming pool deck or bathroom floor. To avoid injury, these surfaces will require slip resistant tiling such as on a swimming pool deck.
Slip-resistant bathroom tiles Adelaide come in an assortment of stylish options, so design doesn’t need to take a backseat to safety. Slip-resistant floor tiles are easy to keep hygienic while looking just like standard glazed porcelain tiles – no sacrifice necessary between style and safety!
