What Are Brick Tiles?
Brick tiles (also known as brick slips) are thin slices of brick that have been cut from a standard-sized clay brick. Roughly 22mm thick, brick tiles maintain the appearance of traditional brick, and once on the wall, are indistinguishable from their full-sized kin.

Advantages of Using Brick Tiles

Brick tiles are the easiest way to rejuvenate a room or wall with the warmth and character that bricks exude, without the fuss of laying real bricks. If you haven't heard of them yet, it's time to become familiar with how brick tiles can be beneficial to any home or flat dweller.


Brick tiles are primarily used as a means of decoration, although they have some inherent protective properties that make them heat and weather-resistant as well. They are predominantly used indoors, on feature walls or entire rooms, but there's no reason you can't use them on an exterior too.

Let's take a look at the top advantages of using brick tiles.

• Brick Tiles Are Easy to Install

One of the main reasons why brick tiles have become so popular is their ease of installation. Brick tiles can be applied to any pre-existing wall, floor, or surface, both inside and outside. Best of all, you can install everything yourself!

Conventional bricks are laid in mortar and stacked on top of each other. Brick tiles, on the other hand, have more in common with regular tiles when it comes to installation. They are adhered to a panel or applied directly to the surface of a wall using glue or mortar.

While you can save yourself time by hiring a professional, installing brick tiles is a relatively straightforward DIY project. With the correct adhesives and preparation, you can create a wall with brick tiles up to ten times faster than a regular brick wall. However, the most challenging part will be cutting tiles to fit particular spaces and ensuring each course is completely level.

• Brick Tiles Are Easy to Maintain

Once you've installed your brick tiles, maintaining them is a pinch. Unlike wood or vinyl, you don't need to apply a protective coating to brick slips. You could paint them if that's the aesthetic look you are going for though. A simple dusting or scrubbing with warm water and detergent can have your brick tiles looking as good as new!
