5 Ways to Spruce Up Basic White Subway Tile



White subway tile has been popular for years. Many people are attracted to its classic appeal but it can sometimes feel outdated and boring. However, there are different ways you can spice up the look of this popular material. Here are tips to upgrade the look of basic white subway tiles from a leading remodeling company. 

Add a Border

One benefit of subway tile is that it is available in a wide range of shapes, colors and sizes. Adding an inset border can instantly change the look of these tiles. You can even use a different material for the border. Horizontally lined tiles with borders in between can create a classic yet distinct appearance. 

Use Different Shapes

Tiles don’t always have to be the same shape. In your kitchen or bathroom remodeling project, mixing and matching shapes will make your space look more visually appealing, dimensional and modern. You can even create your own pattern to make your space more unique. 

Use Trim Pieces

Adding trim pieces can make your space look finished and tailored. Trim pieces can turn a room from plain to aesthetically appealing. If you’re going for a more modern style, make sure to cap the tile with a line of bullnose tile. You can also have a piece of schluter installed to concealed unfinished edges. 

Add Contrasting Features

A little contrast can make a huge difference in the look of your kitchen or bathroom. You can use contrasting colors or combine other materials with the tile. Tiles can also be installed to accentuate recessed areas in the room, giving it a more sophisticated look. 

Go for a Different Finish

Keep in mind that there are materials other than porcelain and ceramic. Instead of traditional options, why not go for glistening zellige tiles? This will give your bathroom or kitchen an old-school appeal.
