Can tile trim be used for both floors and walls?

Yes, tile trim can be used for both floors and walls, but the type of trim you choose depends on the specific application. Here’s how:

Tile Trim for Walls
✅ Edge Protection: Prevents chipping and provides a clean finish for exposed tile edges.
✅ Corner Protection: Protects external corners from damage, especially in high-traffic areas.
✅ Decorative Borders: Enhances the aesthetic appeal of tiled walls with accent trim.
✅ Transitioning Between Materials: Creates a smooth transition between tiles and other materials like drywall or wood.

Tile Trim for Floors
✅ Edge Finishing: Gives a polished look to exposed tile edges, especially in doorways or room transitions.
✅ Transition Strips: Helps create a seamless connection between different flooring materials (e.g., tile to carpet or hardwood).
✅ Slip Resistance: Some trims provide slightly raised edges, reducing tripping hazards.
✅ Threshold Protection: Protects tile edges from cracking due to foot traffic or furniture impact.

Choosing the Right Trim for Floors vs. Walls
Material: Stainless steel and aluminum trims are best for floors due to durability, while PVC and ceramic trims are more common for walls.

Thickness & Strength: Floor trims should be stronger to withstand foot traffic, while wall trims focus more on aesthetics.

Shape: Round-edge trims are popular for walls, while L-shaped or ramped trims are better for floors.
