There is a wide selection of tile types, and the selection can be a bit astonishing. So this is a guide for anyone who wants to buy outdoor tiles. Not all tiles have the same properties. In this way, the correct type of tile should be selected in various circumstances.

Exterior tiles should have the ability to resist the climate. Therefore, they should be suitable for those you can use in a kitchen or toilet. In colder atmospheres, they should also have the ability to counter ice. This is accomplished by choosing an item that does not absorb much water (given that the water freezes and grows and causes damage). The type of climate-proof tiles you need is either glassy or impenetrable.

Another property that the outer tiles need is that they should be non-slip. A smooth floor can be difficult, especially if it is wet, and therefore has a risk. A non-slip floor has a coarser composition, e.g. B. dimples and less cleaned wrapping material. The problem can also be solved by using small tiles, for example mosaics, in which the joints and joints between them give support.

The cheapest tiles are the estimated standard tiles (30 cm x 30 cm). The porcelain stoneware tiles and larger arrangements cause rising costs. Mosaics are also very expensive, but you can make your own mosaics by using a tile cutter to separate larger tiles. Extravagant normal stone is often at the upper end of the value scale and can also be more expensive due to the additional effort involved in changing and fastening.
