What are the advantages and disadvantages of sticking floor tiles on the wall?

First, the advantages of floor tiles attached to the wall

1, with good visual effect and beautiful atmosphere.

Nowadays, many people will choose to stick floor tiles on the wall, because the specifications of floor tiles are larger than those of wall tiles, and their textures will be richer and patterns will be richer, such as imitation wood grain, imitation leather grain, imitation metal, matte highlights, etc., which will look better and more beautiful than wall tiles.

2, consistent with the floor style, easy to choose.

Floor tiles are generally the first choice for decoration. If you want to make the style of the whole house consistent, you must choose wall tiles with similar styles to floor tiles. However, if you use floor tiles directly on the wall, you don't need to consider the choice of wall tiles, which will make it easier to buy bricks and make the style of the room better.

3. Strong three-dimensional sense

It is not easy to use floor tiles on the wall. The bricklayer's use of common joint filling technology will make the effect worse, so it is necessary to sew beautifully in the later stage. After the seams are sewn, the overall wall effect will be more layered and three-dimensional.

Second, the shortcomings of wall and floor tiles

1, with high cost.

The disadvantages of wall tiles are actually many tiles. Compared with ceramic tiles, floor tiles are more expensive, that is to say, the cost of wall tiles is lower and the construction difficulty of floor tiles is greater than that of wall tiles. Floor tiles can be made of cement directly, but wall tiles can only be realized by some special skills, which leads to the increase of materials and labor costs.

2. The construction is difficult.

Will the water absorption rate of floor tiles be high, but the water absorption rate of wall tiles is higher, so it is easier to combine with the wall. If the floor tile is on the wall, if it is ordinary cement, it is easy to cause empty drum. The construction will be very difficult, and it is necessary to find better craftsmen and better skills to realize the tile on the wall.

To sum up, installing a wall on the floor is a choice for many families to decorate because it has many advantages. However, there are many shortcomings, so in the case of a relatively large budget, it is still recommended to stick floor tiles on the wall.
