For homeowners seeking something distinctive with a design-led finish, Fired Earth tiles are a sophisticated and lasting choice.

Yes, many Fired Earth tiles are ideal for use in bathrooms, wet rooms and other moisture-prone areas: 

• Glazed wall tiles, stone-effect options and slip-resistant floor tiles are stylish and practical bathroom installations. 
• Available in materials such as porcelain, ceramic and natural stone, and many are specifically designed to handle the demands of a wet environment. 
• Their collections also include coordinated ranges for walls and floors, so you can achieve a seamless design throughout the space. Fired Earth's bathroom products also integrate well with the rest of their collections.
• Matt or textured Fired Earth tiles provide added grip, making them a long-lasting and elegant choice for bathrooms.

Some Fired Earth tiles require sealing, depending on the material and where they are being installed. At Hyperion Tiles, we advise checking the individual product specifications carefully: 

• Glazed ceramic and porcelain tiles are typically non-porous and don’t need sealing, making them easy to maintain. 
• Natural stone tiles such as limestone, travertine or marble should always be sealed before and after installation to protect against stains, moisture and wear. 
• Certain encaustic or terracotta-style tiles are also more porous and benefit greatly from sealing. 

We recommend using a high-quality impregnating sealer suitable for the specific tile material, and we’re happy to help you select the appropriate products and provide aftercare advice. 

Can Fired Earth tiles be used with underfloor heating?

Yes, most Fired Earth floor tiles are suitable for use with underfloor heating systems when installed correctly. We often recommend porcelain, ceramic and natural stone tiles, as they are excellent heat conductors and retain warmth well. 

However, it’s essential to:

• Use flexible adhesives and grouts during installation to accommodate the subtle movements caused by heat expansion. 
• Increase the temperature gradually after installation to avoid thermal shock.

Fired Earth tiles offer comfort and energy efficiency, warming your space while complementing your interior. For the best results, always follow Fired Earth’s installation guidelines and consult a qualified professional familiar with heated floor systems.
