Freshen up Your Routine with Modern Laundry Room Tile
What if your laundry room was not only functional but also visually appealing? Adding tile to your laundry room's floor or walls can liven up this often overlooked space.
Practical Considerations
Laundry rooms are prone to high humidity and occasional water spills. Choose tiles that are moisture resistant to prevent water damage and mold growth. Porcelain and ceramic tiles are excellent options due to their low water absorption rates.
You will also want your laundry room tile to be easy to clean and maintain. The Tile Shop has a wide selection of glazed tiles, which tend to be easier to clean than unglazed tiles, as they have a protective layer that resists stains and scratches.

Laundry Room Floors
Consider the size and layout of your laundry room when selecting tiles. Larger tiles can make a small room appear more spacious, but they may require cutting to fit around appliances and fixtures. Smaller tiles can offer more flexibility in terms of layout and can be a good choice for irregularly shaped rooms.
Select durable tiles that can withstand the weight of your washer and dryer, as well as resist wear and tear over time. Porcelain tiles are known for their strength and durability, making them a mainstay of laundry room floor design.
Laundry Room Backsplash
Adding a tile backsplash to your laundry room is a fun way to experiment with interesting colors and patterns. The smaller overall square footage of a backsplash means you can add some whimsy or intrigue on a smaller scale, keeping busy patterns or vibrant colors from overwhelming the room.
As for color, while the conventional wisdom says dark walls can make a small space feel even smaller, that is not always the case with laundry room tiles. If your laundry room is especially well lit, consider a high gloss black tile for your laundry room backsplash. The gloss will reduce the darkening effect and the stark black tile will add a dramatic flare to an otherwise purely functional room.
