While installing floor tiles for an open terrace, it is best to ensure that the tiles are specifically suitable for terrace use. No one wants to end up investing in tiles that end up cracking or chipping under extreme weather conditions or footfall. Consequently, it is essential to consider all aspects of the tile – size, texture, colour, weather resistance, etc., before choosing a tile.

Here is a list of a few things that you should consider before zeroing in on your terrace floor tiles:

1. Weather resistance: Choose a tile that is based on the weather conditions of your area. There is no point in choosing a frost-resistant tile if your place experiences only moderate winter temperatures. Similarly, it is pointless to choose cool tiles for a space that experiences mild summers. Pick a tile that works well with the climate of your area.
2. Stain resistance/Ease of cleaning: While stains are an inevitable part of life especially outdoors, they do create an eyesore. Installing stain-resistant or easy-to-clean tiles ensures that your terrace looks clean and gleaming, and can be made so again with minimal effort. Tiles that are difficult to clean, or prone to staining, should be avoided when it comes to the terrace.
3. Anti-slip: Glazed and smooth surfaces reduce the friction between your foot and the surface of the tile, especially if moisture is involved. Consequently, it is recommended to select tiles that have a slightly textured surface to prevent accidents.
4. Durability: As terraces are exposed to different kinds of elements and heavy footfall, the durability of the tile becomes a crucial factor. Tiles that are low on durability easily end up chipping and cracking, making your terrace unsightly.

Which tile is best for terrace flooring?

While all the tiles available in the terrace floor tiles range are excellent for use on the terrace floor, the best tile for your terrace floor will depend on the specifications of your terrace. The ideal tile for your terrace depends on the size of the terrace, weather conditions experienced, and the foot traffic expected. For instance, if your area experiences harsh summers, cool tiles would be your best bet.

With that said, vitrified tiles, polished glazed vitrified tiles, digital glazed vitrified tiles, and ceramic tiles are some of the most popular options for the terrace floor.

Can we put tiles on terrace floor?

Yes, you can always use tiles on the terrace floor. Tiles create a protective layer between your terrace floor and harsh elements. This minimises the cracking of the floor during extreme temperatures while also preventing water from seeping into those cracks to curb water-related damage. They are also beneficial from an aesthetic point of view, as tiles can add distinctive colours and designs to the space.
