FAQ

What are feather tiles?
Feather tiles, also known as feather-edge tiles or tapered-edge tiles, are a type of ceramic or porcelain tile that features a thin, tapered edge. Unlike traditional square-edged tiles, feather tiles have a gradually sloping edge that creates a smoother transition between tiles when installed. The tapered edge helps to reduce the visible grout lines and creates a more seamless, streamlined appearance. Feather tiles are often used in modern and contemporary designs, where achieving a clean, minimalist look is desired. The tapered edge allows for tighter grout joints and a more uniform surface, resulting in a sleek and uninterrupted visual effect. These tiles are commonly used for wall installations, such as backsplashes, shower walls or feature walls, where a refined and polished look is desired.
Are feather tiles suitable for both walls and floors?
Feather tiles are primarily designed for wall installations rather than floors. The tapered edge of feather tiles is intended to create a smooth transition between tiles on vertical surfaces, such as walls or backsplashes. The seamless appearance achieved by feather tiles is particularly effective in these applications, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the space.
Do feather tiles require special installation techniques?
Feather tiles require special installation techniques to achieve a seamless and uniform appearance. Hiring a skilled tile installer experienced with these tiles is crucial, as they require specific handling and installation methods. Tile levelling systems help align and maintain a consistent plane during installation due to the tapered edges. Applying thin-set mortar carefully is essential to accommodate the tapered edges and maintain a smooth transition between tiles. Choosing the right grout colour, preferably non-sanded, is vital to minimise grout line visibility and prevent damage to the tile surface. Precise planning and attention to detail during the installation process ensure the tapered edges align correctly, resulting in the desired aesthetic outcome.
Are feather tiles more prone to chipping or cracking compared to regular tiles?
Feather tiles are not inherently more prone to chipping or cracking compared to regular tiles. The susceptibility to chipping or cracking depends on several factors, including the specific material, thickness, quality and the installation process. While feather tiles do require attention and care during installation and maintenance, they can be as durable as regular tiles when installed correctly. Working with an experienced tile installer and following the manufacturer's guidelines for installation and maintenance will help minimise the risk of chipping or cracking and ensure the long-term integrity of the tiles.
