The living room is the main activity area for family members and guests, so the material selection of the floor is very important. If the quality of living room floor materials are not great, it will affect the use of later, but also affect the whole decoration style. So, how to choose the right tiles for living room? what should we pay attention to for installing living room tile?

Everything You Need To Know Before Install Tiles For Living Room
1. Choosing Right Tile Specification
If the living room area is relatively large, for example: the living room area is more than 30 square meters, 80 × 80 floor tiles can be used when choosing ceramic tiles. If the living room area is smaller and less than 30 square meters, floor tiles of 60 × 60 specifications can be used. If the living room area is large, and the floor tiles of small specifications installed, it will be very crowded from the visual effect. If the living room area is relatively small, laying large size tiles will make people feel very discordant, so when choosing the living room tiles, we must choose the appropriate specifications for installing.

2. Color
The living room is the main activity place, so its color should gives people a bright, comfortable and natural feeling. It’s better to choose light color tile, such as: white, light beige, light grey or the ceramic tile that features some small patterns.

3. Texture
Wear-resistant tiles should be chosen for living room as we’ll spend much time in this area. So the vitrified tiles is a great choice, because vitrified tiles are better to clean.

4. Maintenance
Before tiling in the living room, it is necessary to soak the tiles in water for more than three hours, so that the tiles can absorb enough water. After tiling with sufficient water, there will be no peeling, hollowing, sticking and other situations.
