Fireplace Wall Tiles

Fireplace Wall Tiles

Changing the fireplace wall tiles will add a fresh new look and pattern to your room, updating the surrounding tiles can change the look of your space.

Why not change your look with Stone Tile US tiles for your fireplace wall projects?

We have shades ranging from warm beige to cool whites. There are also richer shades of light browns and pinks. Choose marble, limestone, or travertine with an option for polished or tumbled surfaces for your designing needs.

Mosaics are a great option and come in various shapes and sizes from circular, linear and split face patterns to name a few, they offer unique sophisticated options with old world inspiration and are great for fireplaces, floor, walls, back splashes, kitchen, and bathroom.

Porcelain Mosaics are also an option which will not break the bank, it’s economical, attractive and durable.

Apart from Mosaics tiles for the Fireplace and walls there are many other great and creative options:

Subway tile has been primarily used for kitchen wall back splash, you can create your own pattern with them for the fireplace just by the angle of placement creating your own style.

Hexagon patterns in natural tones like Terra-cotta shades of tan, brick reds and browns will give you a “fresh new” yet antique look for your wall.

More Fireplace Wall Tiles Options

Herringbone patterns also offers a new fresh and transitional look for your fireplace or wall back splash.

Decorative ceramic tiles are another great option that can beautifully accent your walls transforming your room making it your own.  If you’re feeling brave you can mix and match patterned and solid colored tiles.

Patterns with Harlequin Diamond shapes are a smart transitional fireplace tile option.

Looking for contemporary?!  Try Glass Tile with various colors like cream and beige. Mix shapes or use one pattern, just the shine of glass will be eye catching!  Great for a room focal point like the fire place or accent wall.

White Tiles will keep the look crisp, modern and clean, if you decide on laminated tiles, mother of pearl or seashell it will transport your thoughts to a beautiful sandy beach.

To add depth to your room get a three dimensional tile like Bas relief giving great texture. It may cost a bit more but these tiles can be personalized if I’m not mistaken.

Raised-Leaf is similar to the appearance of bas relief with the added edge and texture of overlapping images giving it a vintage look. If you use the raised leaf tile with added shapes like circles it will give your finish a modern twist.

Sticking to a budget get cheap tile, or discount tiles?! Tile shops are located throughout the United States, research your local tile stores before purchasing.

You can make ceramic tiles work for you by mixing the shapes and adding them to the wall of your fireplace making if uniquely you own!

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION

Stone Tile Us pavers are available in Marble and Travertine with finishes: tumbled, honed and filled. The finish on these stones are good for traction of vehicles and walking. The dense, hard material of travertine pavers makes them good for driveways, patios, pool and decks. They are resistant to moisture, cold, heat and erosion.  There is no heat retention and its surface remains cool to the touch. We offer a good variety of colors and sizes to blend with your outdoor design.

Surface Preparation (Important)

Travertine pavers are durable, however, they are breakable so it’s important to properly prepare the surface. Pavers sized 6×12 are best for driveway to prevent cracking from the pressure of vehicles. Larger sizes, and French Pattern, are good for outdoor, deck and pool areas but not recommended for driveway use.

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION STEPS:

Dry-Set

Is highly recommended it is easy to lay and replace if needed and is the best option for cold weather.

Steps:

Excavate if needed

Compact (Soil has to have the correct moisture level)

Level, compact and repeat

Add 6” to 8” crushed limestone (sharp edges assist a snug fit) allows for good drainage.

Compact layers

Add the limestone in 2 -3 layers

Level compact and repeat

Top with ½” sand

Then lay pavers

Clearly define borders 6×12 Travertine Pavers

After pavers are in place Polymeric sand can be swept between cracks, grout, or they can be left alone

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION Mud-set

Uniform ground, surface/platform.

Excavate 6″ to 8″ of soil

Clear the area and create a level platform

Use a plate compactor to compact the soil

Fill area with crushed gravel (limestone base 3” to 4”)

Pour 4” concrete slab

Add mortar and lay the travertine pavers

Start from the edge of the driveway and work your way inwards.

Flexbond is recommended for cold weather mud set travertine paver installation that will be mud-set on top of a concrete surface.

It allows contraction and expansion during the extreme cold weather cycle as  will as prevent cracking.

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION Sand set

Excavate the area and compact the soil.

Add a crushed limestone base 4” to 5”

Crushed limestone is a sure foundation, and will help the pavers stay in proper position while allowing proper drainage.

Add 1” to 2” of concrete sand over crushed limestone.

Lay pavers starting from the edge of the driveway and work your way in (use something like a concrete slab, to hold pavers in position during installation).

Pavers should be placed in a fitted pattern for good snug fit.

Fill the joints in with polymeric sand (usually a mix of sand & special additives that are used for filling paving stone joints).

Edging

It’s recommended to install landscape edging on the outside edge of the pavers this will keep them from shifting out of position (top of the edging must be level with the travertine paver edge)

An alternative is pouring concrete along the outside edge after tiles are set (top of the edging must be level with the travertine paver edge)

Finishes

Your outdoor travertine paver finish options are:

Tumbled finish, has textured, porous finish that is skid-resistant.

Honed is a smoother finish than tumbled  but still has needed traction when wet.

Polished finish is smooth and should only be installed in covered outside areas porch patio etc…

 

TRAVERTINE PAVERS INSTALLATION Patterns

The pattern is up to you as there are several pattern/size options:

6×12, 8×8, 8×16, 12×12, 12×24, 16×16, 16×24, & 24×24

French pattern/mini-French pattern

Pattern repeats after the first square ends (tiles are 16″ by 24″, 16″ by 16″, 16″ by 8″ & 8″by 8″ pavers and is set to cover 16 sq. ft. area. You should place tiles close together and you should fill the joints with sand).

When pavers are set, check for level, go over the area with a plate compactor again.

Stone Tile Us ships everywhere and fast, check or flooring tile shipping policy.
