Matte vs. polished tiles for the bathroom

Tiles are really a necessity in the bathroom. The walls get wet very quickly and if you do not have tiles, a problem can arise. When choosing tiles, size and design are important, but also the surface. It can be matte or polished.

Polished tiles look elegant and luxurious. Their big plus is that they reflect light. Even a small bathroom will be optically illuminated and expanded. The polished surface is smooth and easy to wash and clean. Imprints, drops and other dirt can be easily wiped off and will look new even after years of use. However, the polished surface is less anti-slip than the matte surface.
