Out of all the home improvement projects that property owners might take on, bathroom remodeling tends to be one of the most popular -- and one of the most profitable. In fact, remodeling a bathroom can come with an expected ROI of 70%. Of course, there are countless elements that can be included in a given bathroom remodeling project. But when making all those important decisions, you can't afford to forget about how your choice of tile in a bathroom can impact its overall visual appeal. Before you finalize your picks for wall and shower tiles, consider the following factors.

    1. Size: Scale matters a lot when choosing bathroom shower tile or floor tile. Larger tiles are currently having a bit of a moment, but they aren't the best choice for every part of the bathroom. They can work well for flooring or for shower benches, but they aren't a good fit for walls or in every shower. Smaller tiles are typically better suited for certain spaces -- though they can make a room seem a bit less spacious. It can be difficult to discern the scale of a photo online, so make sure to pay close attention to its dimensions and take a look at some popular tile designs in person, if possible. Even if you ultimately end up ordering what you want online rather than picking it out in a showroom, you'll still have a much clearer idea of the size that might work best in your space.
    2. Appearance: Most people will decide that their top priority will be the aesthetic value offered by the bath tiles of their choice. You'll want to consider color scheme, texture, weight, and the type of tile material when making this decision. If your aim is to create a spa-like atmosphere, you could opt for bathroom glass tile installation with a fresh and neutral feel. If you're after something more vintage inspired, porcelain or natural stone tiles may be more up your alley. Once you determine the look and feel of your ideal bathroom space, you can explore the materials that will allow you to bring your vision to life.
    3. Durability: When preparing for bathroom glass tile installation or new tile flooring, you might get so caught up in the design aspect that you forget about the practical considerations. In order to protect this investment, you'll want to choose materials that won't require substantial maintenance and that provide at least adequate durability. Since your home's bathroom will likely see quite a bit of foot traffic, you'll want to ensure that your money goes as far as possible. Natural stone tends to require more maintenance due to its porous texture, so you may be better off with glass, porcelain, or ceramic if you want to minimize potential upkeep. And if you're making an investment in a bathroom glass tile installation or other tile details, make sure that these tiles will theoretically be easy to replace, if needed, and that they won't carry a high risk of becoming chipped or cracked in the near future.
