Whether you are planning on renovating your garden or embarking on an extension, large-format tiles are a great way to enhance your outdoor spaces. Large format tiles are getting increasingly popular thanks to the sleek look they provide. From rustic stone effect designs to cool concrete-inspired looks, our range of large-format porcelain paving will help you create a stunning space you'll want to show off this summer.
Bigger Is Better: The Advantages of Large Format Tiles
We offer a wide range of different sizes of outdoor porcelain tiles, and we tend to class anything over 80cm as 'large format'. The more oversized tiles mean you will need less of them to cover your space, which reduces the number of grout joints required and creates a sense of spaciousness and a more streamlined appearance. This works particularly well on larger patios and terraces as you can make the most of the space. To further enhance this look, choose tiles with rectified edges that allow you to create neat and modern joints.
Unparalleled Visual Appeal
Creating an outdoor area using large format floor tiles gives a stunning visual impact to those entering your garden. The sense of elegance and luxury provided also allows you to showcase your chosen design, with more of the beautiful surface design on show. Our outdoor porcelain tiles can be used on patios, terraces, balconies, swimming pool surrounds, paths, steps and even driveways.
Want to take this look to the next level? Consider using coordinating internal tiles to create a natural flow between your indoor and outdoor living spaces. This look is ideal for those with sliding, French or bifold doors as the wide openings allow the areas to merge into one large entertaining space, adding to the cohesive aesthetic.
Durability That Withstands the Elements
Of course, there are other options available when it comes to choosing the materials for your patio, but porcelain has so many benefits to offer. Firstly, all Valverdi tiles are fully vitrified which makes them extremely hard and therefore durable. The vitrification process also has other benefits including resistance to changes in temperature, staining and fading. We also ensure that all our tiles have superior slip resistance so that your outdoor space is safe for the entire family.
Easy Maintenance for Effortless Enjoyment
Porcelain is also a great option outdoors thanks to the low maintenance of the material. As the tiles are resistant to scratching, fading or staining they are easy to keep clean - simply sweep or mop regularly and jet wash for a deeper clean. They also do not need sealing like other natural materials however, you may wish to use a protective coating to make some marks easier to remove. This hassle-free maintenance allows for more time to relax and enjoy outdoor spaces rather than worrying about ongoing care.
