30 x 60cm Bathroom Tiles

Frequently Asked Questions

Are 30 x 60cm tiles a good size for small bathrooms?

Yes, 30 x 60cm tiles are an excellent choice for small bathrooms because they strike the right balance between being large enough to reduce grout lines and small enough to remain proportional to compact spaces. In a small en-suite or cloakroom, overly large tiles can sometimes feel overwhelming, but the 30 x 60 format creates a more harmonious scale. When laid horizontally on walls, they can make the room appear wider, while laying them vertically can give the illusion of extra height. Their rectangular shape works particularly well in shower enclosures, where they can create a clean, continuous surface with fewer interruptions. Light or neutral colours in this format will also help reflect light and make the room feel more open, while darker shades can add drama without overpowering the space. Unlike very small tiles, which create lots of grout lines and can make a bathroom feel busier, 30 x 60 tiles give a much sleeker finish. They are also practical in smaller spaces because they are easier to handle during installation and generate less cutting waste compared to larger tiles. For homeowners looking to make a small bathroom appear bigger while maintaining practicality, 30cm x 60cm tiles are an ideal option.

Can 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles be used on both walls and floors?

Yes, 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles are one of the most versatile formats available because they can be used across both walls and floors to create a cohesive, stylish finish. Their proportions make them equally suitable for vertical and horizontal surfaces, which means you can use the same tile throughout the room to achieve a sense of continuity. On walls, 30 x 60 tiles provide a modern rectangular look that reduces grout lines and enhances the sense of space. They are easy to position in different layouts such as brick bond, vertical stack, or

Their proportions make them equally suitable for vertical and horizontal surfaces, which means you can use the same tile throughout the room to achieve a sense of continuity. On walls, 30 x 60 tiles provide a modern rectangular look that reduces grout lines and enhances the sense of space. They are easy to position in different layouts such as brick bond, vertical stack, or herringbone, giving you plenty of flexibility to tailor the design to your taste. On bathroom floors, porcelain tiles in this size are especially practical because they are durable, water-resistant, and capable of withstanding daily wear. Laid in a grid or staggered pattern, they provide a strong and attractive foundation, and with slip-resistant finishes available, they are a safe choice too. Using 30 x 60cm tiles on both walls and floors also creates a spa-like look that is seamless and luxurious, which is why this size is often chosen for high-end bathroom projects. Their adaptability makes them an excellent investment for any bathroom design.

Are 30 x 60cm tiles easy to clean and maintain?

Yes, one of the biggest advantages of 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles is how simple they are to clean and maintain. Their larger size compared to smaller mosaics or square tiles means there are fewer grout lines across the surface, which significantly reduces the areas where dirt, mould, and soap residue can accumulate. This makes cleaning quicker and more efficient, which is a huge benefit in busy bathrooms and en-suites. Porcelain and ceramic tiles in this format are non-porous, so they resist stains, moisture, and bacteria far better than natural stone. They do not require sealing, unlike many stone surfaces, which saves both time and money in ongoing maintenance. To keep them looking fresh, all that is needed is a simple routine of wiping down with a damp cloth or mop using a mild pH-neutral cleaner. Their durability also means they will not scratch or wear easily, even in high-traffic areas of the bathroom. For extra protection, slip-resistant finishes are available, which add safety while remaining easy to clean. By combining practical dimensions with the resilience of porcelain and ceramic, 30 x 60cm tiles make bathroom upkeep effortless without compromising on style.

Do 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles work with underfloor heating?

Yes, 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles are fully compatible with underfloor heating systems, making them a practical and comfortable choice for modern bathrooms. Porcelain and ceramic tiles in this size conduct heat effectively, ensuring that the warmth from your underfloor heating is evenly distributed across the surface. This makes them a popular option for homeowners who want to combine stylish flooring with a cosy underfoot feel, particularly in bathrooms where warmth and comfort are so important. The 30 x 60 size is especially practical because it is not so large that it risks uneven heating, yet large enough to create a sleek, modern floor finish. As long as the tiles are installed correctly with the appropriate adhesive and grout, they will perform excellently with underfloor heating without the risk of cracking or warping. Their durability also ensures they will withstand the daily expansion and contraction caused by temperature changes. By choosing 30 x 60cm tiles with underfloor heating, you can achieve a bathroom that is both luxurious and functional, combining modern design with year-round comfort. It is one of the reasons this tile size has become so popular in bathroom renovations and new builds.

What styles are available in 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles?

There is an extensive range of styles available in 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles, which is why they are such a versatile option for homeowners and designers. For a bright, modern look, glossy tiles in this size help reflect light and make smaller bathrooms feel larger and more open. Matt finishes are a popular alternative for those seeking a contemporary, understated effect that works well on both walls and floors. Stone effect tiles are one of the most in-demand options in this format, replicating the natural beauty of materials like limestone, travertine, and slate without the maintenance. Their larger rectangular surface showcases the detail and variation of stone beautifully. Marble effect tiles are another timeless choice, ideal for creating a luxurious feel with delicate veining and natural character. For industrial or urban-inspired bathrooms, concrete effect tiles in 30 x 60 create a bold and modern foundation that pairs well with black fixtures and exposed finishes. Textured tiles in this format are also available and are perfect for adding depth and interest to feature areas such as shower walls or behind freestanding baths. With so many choices in colour, finish, and pattern, 30 x 60cm tiles can complement any bathroom style.

Why choose 30 x 60cm tiles for the bathroom?

The 30 x 60 format is incredibly versatile, which is one reason it is so widely used in bathrooms. Rectangular tiles can be laid in different ways depending on the look you want to achieve. They can be laid horizontally to make walls appear wider, vertically to add height to a room, or in more creative layouts such as brick bond or herringbone for added texture and character.

This size offers the best of both worlds: large enough to reduce the number of grout lines for a sleek, contemporary look, but small enough to remain practical in compact bathrooms where larger formats might feel overwhelming. Their proportions also make them well-suited to highlighting the details of stone effect, marble effect and textured finishes.

Beyond their appearance, 30 x 60 tiles are practical. They are easy to handle and install, making them a favourite of tilers and designers. The reduced grout lines compared to smaller formats also mean they are easier to clean, which is particularly important in humid, high-use spaces like bathrooms.

Perfect for bathroom walls

One of the most popular uses of 30 x 60cm tiles is for bathroom walls. Their rectangular shape creates a sleek and stylish backdrop that can make a bathroom feel taller, wider or more dynamic depending on how they are laid. Full-height tiling with this format offers a modern, spa-like look, while half-height tiling paired with paint can create contrast and definition.

On shower walls, 30 x 60 tiles are especially effective. Their size strikes the perfect balance between reducing grout lines and being manageable in compact spaces. When used vertically in a shower enclosure, they can help create the impression of height, while a horizontal layout can make the enclosure feel more spacious.

With a wide variety of finishes available, from glossy ceramics to matt porcelain, you can achieve anything from a clean minimalist look to a textured natural stone aesthetic.

Durable and stylish bathroom floors

While many people choose 30 x 60 tiles for walls, they are also highly effective on bathroom floors. Porcelain tiles in this size provide a tough, water-resistant surface that is built to last, while their shape offers more visual interest than standard square formats.

Laid in a grid pattern, they provide a neat and contemporary foundation, but they can also be staggered for a brick-bond effect that adds movement and character. For those who prefer a bolder design, laying 30 x 60 tiles in a herringbone or chevron pattern creates a striking, design-led finish that feels both modern and timeless.

With slip-resistant finishes available, these tiles are also a safe choice for bathrooms, wet rooms and en-suites. They are compatible with underfloor heating too, making them a practical and comfortable option for modern homes.

A wide choice of finishes and styles

At Hyperion Tiles, our collection of 30 x 60cm bathroom tiles covers every style, from sleek modern looks to rustic and traditional finishes. Gloss tiles are popular for walls as they reflect light, brightening up smaller bathrooms and creating a polished, elegant finish. Matt tiles offer a more understated, contemporary look and are often chosen for floors as well as walls due to their tactile feel.

Stone effect tiles in this size are perfect for creating a natural, calming bathroom environment. They mimic the look of limestone, slate or travertine with all the benefits of porcelain, offering timeless style without the need for sealing or specialist care. Marble effect tiles are another standout option, allowing you to achieve a luxury, high-end look complete with natural veining and subtle variation.

For urban or industrial-inspired bathrooms, concrete effect tiles in a 30 x 60 format are a striking choice, pairing beautifully with black fixtures, exposed lighting and bold feature walls. Textured tiles are also available, ideal for adding depth and interest to feature areas such as behind a bath or vanity unit.

Easy care and low maintenance

One of the main benefits of porcelain and ceramic 30 x 60 bathroom tiles is how simple they are to maintain. Their non-porous surfaces resist moisture and stains, so they can handle daily bathroom use with ease. A quick wipe with warm water and a mild cleaner is all that is usually required to keep them looking their best.

The reduced grout lines compared to smaller tiles mean less opportunity for mould or grime to build up, making cleaning quicker and more efficient. Unlike natural stone, porcelain tiles do not need sealing, so you get the same timeless look without the extra work.

For extra peace of mind, we stock slip-resistant options and grout in a range of colours, so you can choose the right finish to match your design and make cleaning as straightforward as possible.

Do 30 x 60 tiles suit all bathroom sizes?

The great advantage of this size is that it works well in both small and large bathrooms. In a compact en-suite, they are manageable and proportional, helping to keep the space feeling open. In larger bathrooms, they can be laid to create dramatic walls and expansive floors that feel luxurious and contemporary. Their flexible format means they are one of the most adaptable tile sizes available, which is why they are a favourite with designers and homeowners alike.
