With an extensive product range, Tile Giant seamlessly combines aesthetics and functionality
When it comes to renovating your kitchen or bathroom, one of the key decisions in terms of both style and functionality is choosing the right tiles. Whether you’re hoping to achieve a modern, sleek look or a country chic aesthetic, tiles can make or break a room, and wall tiles in particular can redefine interior aesthetics, offering more than just a surface.
Offering a huge selection of kitchen, bathroom, floor, and outdoor tiles, Tile Giant is one of the UK’s leading tile specialists. Striving to be the first to market with industry innovations at competitive prices, the company’s philosophy is to ‘provide amazing tile ranges in an ethical and sustainable way’ for its vast customer base. The business also prides itself on offering a seamless shopping experience regardless of whether customers visit online or one of its 50 stores across the UK.
Having been featured in several home and interior design magazines like Ideal Home and Homes & Gardens, customers are never short of inspiration to help them
make size, style, colour, or pattern decisions. Providing detailed product information and expert assistance, including a ‘Trend Edit’ for each year’s top trends and an extensive blog, Tile Giant provides customers with the care and confidence required to make style decisions. Its blog includes style tips, discussion of trends, and tours of customers’ houses, with the latest entry featuring a tour of Mark Wright and Michelle Keagan’s home alongside discussion of how the couple chose tiles for each space.
Style choices
The company’s product selection encompasses porcelain and ceramic tiles for both walls and floors, and most collections can be used in bathrooms and kitchens. Tile Giant’s range of wall tiles includes a variety of substrates, finishes, shapes, sizes, and colours, meeting preferences like neutral, soft finishes, striking statements, or textured, three-dimensional decoration. From crisp, minimalist designs using the Venue, Marmi, or Titanium ranges to the warm, subtle tones and textures of the Wightwick or Antalya collections, Tile Giant caters to all styles and preferences.
Within each range, there is a wide selection of options from which to choose. The Annabelle collection, for example, features two distinctive shapes – hexagonal or rectangular – and a rich colour palette of ash, blue, green, rose, or pink. Each Annabelle tile is handcrafted with an artisan-made effect and scattered rustic flecks, making this an ideal option for both classic and contemporary spaces.
The company also offers easy-to-clean and slip-resistant options within its bathroom range, as well as catering to mosaic designs that deliver unique, one-of-a-kind solutions or to contemporary wet rooms, using large tiles to make smaller spaces look much bigger. There is also the Linnea collection to provide a wood panel effect in a durable, low-maintenance, and easy-to-install porcelain tile, which is available in two styles and colours, including easy-to-clean and slip-resistant options.
Flooring options
Often thought of as the most sociable room in any home, Tile Giant offers a vast selection of kitchen tiles for walls, floors, and splashbacks from patterned and mosaic options to smart bevelled tiles and anti-slip flooring. The company is constantly adding new designs to meet ever-evolving trends and customer expectations. The new Cottage collection, for instance, offers a handcrafted effect designed to transform a kitchen or bathroom into a space of warmth and character. Available in seven colours, the Cottage range offers bespoke charm and seamlessly blends with either culinary aesthetics or spa-like bathroom retreats.
When it comes to transforming an interior space, few things have as significant an impact as the right choice of flooring, and Tile Giant boasts an exquisite collection of floor tiles. Crafted with precision and an eye for aesthetics, the company’s tiles are not only functional, but a statement of personal style preference that represents Tile Giant’s commitment to quality, design, and durability.
Magna by Tile Giant is the company’s innovative brand of extra-large format tiles. As customers become more adventurous with their design choices, this brand is an extension of Tile Giant’s premium Magna collection, adding new options in striking designs. This range comprises a mixture of marble, stone, and concrete effect tiles in both polished and matt finishes. The tiles are made from the highest quality porcelain and are available in three sizes – 120 centimetres by 120 centimetres, 120 centimetres by 240 centimetres, and 120 centimetres by 260 centimetres – enabling the creation of a high-end look with less grout lines.
All the company’s floor tiles can be used in conjunction with its underfloor heating system to provide a luxurious and cosy feeling. Underfloor heating has risen in popularity in recent years due to its discreet nature, as it can provide energy-efficient radiant heat within clean, contemporary spaces. Not only do these systems have no visible pipework, but they can also help to reduce energy bills by providing up to 40 per cent increased efficiency.
Budget requirements
Given the increased popularity of underfloor heating, Tile Giant offers two ranges to meet different budget requirements. Warmup is a premium system offering high-quality design, market-leading warranties, and over 25 years of experience and expertise. SunStone, on the other hand, enables customers to take advantage of affordable luxury, bringing comfort and warmth to the home without breaking the bank.
Grouts, tools & accessories
Another key trend is the seamless transition of indoor-outdoor living. Through a collaboration with Stiled, Tile Giant offers outdoor tiles designed to enhance the beauty and functionality of gardens or patios. From a design perspective, the collection is inspired by the harmony between nature and modern aesthetics and includes an impressive selection of styles from the timeless elegance of stone effect tiles to the warm and inviting charm of wood-effect porcelain.
Aside from tiles, Tile Giant stocks several adhesives and grouts required to bond and seal tiles to walls or floors, as well as an extensive selection of tools and accessories. The company is on hand to help customers select the most appropriate solution, from Mapei ProQuick fast-setting floor tile adhesive to Mapei’s Ultracolor Plus Grout, which is a mould resistant grout available in a verity of colours.
Recognising that quality tools and accessories are essential for successful project delivery, Tile Giant stocks a range of well-known brands including Rubi, Vitrex, and LTP. From electric and manual tile cutters to replacement blades and professional-grade grout trowels, the company offers a wide range of tools required to achieve a professional finish for any tiling project.
Customer service
From exploring these extensive ranges, it’s clear that Tile Giant is a one-stop shop for all tiling needs. However, it’s not only the company’s tiles that have led to its esteemed reputation, as its customer service is equally impressive. While Tile Giant encourages customers to visit one of its 50 stores across the UK, many customers want to shop online, and the business appreciates the complexity of choosing tiles using just digital imagery. So, a sample service is available, allowing customers to request either full size samples or up to three cut samples free of charge. There is also a ‘buy back’ scheme where customers can be refunded for unused tiles, as well as a price promise to ensure Tile Giant’s products are price matched with those of its competitors.
Catering to a wide spectrum of aesthetic preferences and functional requirements, Tile Giant has established the perfect combination of high-quality products and seamless customer experience. Moving forward, the company will continue to expand its product portfolio with innovative styles, new size options, and outdoor products to bridge indoor-outdoor living. With expert guidance and a commitment to customers, Tile Giant is sure to remain at the forefront of the UK’s tile industry.
