Large Format Tiles: Sizes, Laying Tips and Where to Use Them

Large format tiles mean fewer grout lines and a seamless look. They need a flat subfloor and the right adhesive.

Popular sizes

Common sizes include 600x600mm, 800x800mm and 1200x600mm. Check each product page for exact dimensions and thickness.

Preparing the surface

The subfloor must be flat and stable. Level it first, because large tiles show any dips.

Adhesive and handling

Use a suitable large-format adhesive and a notched trowel to get full coverage. Handle tiles on their edge and plan help for lifting.

Common questions

Do large tiles make a room look bigger?
Often yes. Fewer grout lines give a cleaner, more open look.
Do large tiles need special adhesive?
Use an adhesive rated for large format and aim for full coverage on the back of each tile.
Can I use large tiles on walls?
Yes, with a suitable adhesive and by checking the wall can carry the weight.
