Terracotta Clay Presealed Tile Matte 4x4

Yes! The Terracotta Clay Presealed Tile Matte 4x4 is a versatile choice for both floors and walls. It can be used in kitchens, bathrooms, showers, backsplashes, and even on commercial walls. However, please note that these tiles are not suitable for pool areas. With a sturdy 15 mm thickness and a matte finish, they provide both beauty and durability in high-traffic spaces.

'Pre-sealed' means each Terracotta Clay Tile has a protective sealant applied during manufacturing, saving you the extra step of sealing after installation. This treatment helps prevent stains and moisture absorption. For most residential uses (kitchen, bathroom, shower, floors, backsplash), additional sealing isn't necessary. However, if you're using them in an area prone to heavy moisture or commercial use, you may choose to reseal for added peace of mind.

Absolutely! The matte, pre-sealed surface makes these tiles easy to clean and maintain. Simply wipe spills with a damp cloth and use a mild detergent for routine cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads to keep the tiles looking beautiful. Their handcrafted nature also means subtle variations may occur, which only adds character and charm to your space.

Each box contains 80 tiles and covers 7.77 square feet. To determine how many boxes you need, measure your total project area in square feet and divide by 7.77, then round up to the nearest whole box. It's always a good idea to order an extra box for cuts, waste, and future repairs. For example, for a 40 sq ft kitchen backsplash, you'll need at least 6 boxes (40 / 7.77 = 5.15, round up to 6 boxes).

Yes, these tiles are heat resistant and ideal for use as a kitchen backsplash behind stoves, around fireplaces, or other areas exposed to heat. Their tile composition and pre-sealed matte finish ensure they won’t discolor or crack from normal household heat exposure. For safety, always follow local building codes regarding clearances and installation near direct flames.
