Why Monsoon Humidity Makes Wall Tiles More Practical Than Paint

Why Monsoon Humidity Makes Wall Tiles More Practical Than Paint

Rainy weather makes the air and walls wetter than usual.

Paint can stain or peel when walls stay damp for a long time.

Bathrooms, kitchens and utility areas are especially likely to get splashes or steam.

Wall tiles provide another surface that is easier to clean.

They can also offer more patterns, sizes and finishes than paint alone.

Small tiles can add detail to backsplashes or feature walls.

Large tiles can make a wall look more continuous because they have fewer grout lines.

The right tile must be chosen for the location and installed properly.

Waterproofing problems should be fixed before tiles are installed.
