Kitchen Tiles in Leicester
Splashbacks, floors and feature walls built for a working kitchen, easy-clean, heat and grease resistant, and matched to your worktops. On display at both Leicester showrooms.
A kitchen tile has to work as hard as the room.
A kitchen tile earns its place three times over, it has to look right, survive heat and grease behind the hob, and wipe clean after every meal. We stock kitchen wall, floor and splashback tiles across both Leicester showrooms, from classic metros to hard-wearing porcelain floors and pattern feature tiles.
Bring a photo of your kitchen or a worktop sample and our team will help you match tones and pick a finish that stays looking good in a busy cooking space.
Kitchen tiles by application
Splashback Tiles
Heat and grease-resistant tiles that wipe clean, from classic metro to bold pattern, for behind the hob and along the worktop.
Kitchen Floor Tiles
Hard-wearing porcelain floor tiles that take kitchen traffic and spills, in stone, wood and concrete effects.
Metro & Brick
Metro and brick-bond tiles in gloss and matt, the timeless splashback choice, laid straight, stacked or in herringbone.
Pattern & Feature
Encaustic-style and geometric pattern tiles for a feature splashback or a characterful kitchen floor.
Large Format
Large slabs for a seamless, easy-clean kitchen floor or wall with fewer grout lines to keep clean.
Wood Effect
Porcelain plank tiles that bring warmth to a kitchen-diner without the moisture risk of real timber.

Getting a kitchen tile right
Heat & grease
Glazed ceramic and porcelain both wipe clean easily behind a hob. A gloss finish shows marks more but reflects light in a darker kitchen.
Tiles to worktops
Bring a worktop offcut or photo. We help you match or deliberately contrast tones so the splashback and worktop work together.
Upstand vs full height
A short upstand is budget-friendly and quick; a full-height splashback protects more wall and makes a bigger visual statement.
Easy-clean finishes
Larger tiles and darker or mid-tone grout keep a kitchen wall looking clean between deep cleans.
Ceramic vs porcelain in a kitchen
| Factor | Ceramic | Porcelain |
|---|---|---|
| Splashbacks | Excellent, easy to cut | Excellent, very durable |
| Kitchen floors | Workable, lighter duty | Better, takes heavy traffic |
| Grease & stain resistance | Good, glazed | Very good, low porosity |
| Large format | Limited | Wide, including slabs |
| Best for | Splashbacks, walls | Floors, large format, worktops |
Estimate your coverage
An estimate only. Splashbacks often need less than you think, floors need a waste allowance for cuts around units. Our team will confirm exact quantities in-showroom.
“For splashbacks, people forget the grout does half the work, a mid-grey grout behind a hob hides everyday marks far better than brilliant white, and it still looks crisp. Bring your worktop sample in before you choose the tile, not after; it is much easier to match a tile to a worktop than the other way round.”
