Engineered for the outdoors Porcelain outdoor paving has become the material of choice for homeowners, landscapers and builders across Ireland and Northern Ireland. Unlike natural stone or concrete slabs, porcelain paving is non-porous, meaning it won't absorb water, stain or crack through freeze-thaw cycles. Our 20mm exterior porcelain tiles are available in a wide range of styles including natural stone effect, wood effect, slate effect and concrete effect. You get the look of premium natural materials with none of the upkeep. Whether you're designing a patio in Belfast, a garden terrace in Dublin, an outdoor space in Cork, Galway or Limerick, or a poolside area in Armagh or Newry, our specialists will help you find the right paving for your project. Tumbled Edges Terro Decorative Rodas Outdoor Kona Outdoor Aurora Most Popular Acadia Outdoor Collections Available Across Ireland Explore the Armapave collection Armapave brings together Armatile's collection of 20mm porcelain paving, selected for patios, terraces, gardens and outdoor living spaces across Ireland and Northern Ireland. Combining practical outdoor performance with carefully considered finishes, colours and textures, the collection makes it easier to choose paving that works with both your home and the way you use your outdoor space. VIEW ALL OUTDOOR TILES DOWNLOAD OUR ARMAPAVE BROCHURE The Inside-Out Collection One look from inside to out Selected Armapave ranges coordinate with interior tiles in complementary tones and finishes, helping create a more continuous transition from kitchens and living spaces to patios, terraces and gardens. Carrying a similar tone and texture through adjoining spaces can make the whole scheme feel more connected and considered, while still using surfaces designed for the demands of each environment. Ask our showroom team in store for more details about the Inside-Out Collection and the coordinating indoor and outdoor combinations available. FIND A SHOWROOM DOWNLOAD OUR INSIDE OUT BROCHURE 04 Dark and Slate Tones for Patios Lighter stone and buff tones dominated outdoor spaces for years, but darker slate, charcoal and anthracite porcelain paving is becoming increasingly popular for patios and garden terraces across Ireland. Dark tones absorb heat well, show less everyday marking and create a striking contrast against green planting and timber garden furniture. Combined with good lighting, a dark porcelain patio can look genuinely dramatic after dark. Browse outdoor tiles 03 Porcelain Replacing Natural Stone Natural stone has long been the go-to for premium outdoor spaces, but porcelain paving is now the more popular choice across Ireland and Northern Ireland. Porcelain requires no sealing, does not absorb moss or algae the way natural stone does and holds its appearance far better in the wet Irish climate. Modern porcelain stone effect tiles are now so convincing that the practical benefits come with no visual compromise. Browse Outdoor tiles 02 EXTENDING THE LIVING SPACE OUTDOORS Gardens and patios are becoming more considered extensions of the home, with outdoor areas designed around the same level of comfort and attention as interior spaces. Comfortable seating, dining zones, planting and carefully chosen paving can help turn a simple patio into a space for relaxing, entertaining and everyday living. By thinking about layout, materials and how the area will be used, homeowners can create outdoor spaces that feel purposeful, inviting and naturally connected to the way they live. Browse Outdoor Tiles 01 Large Format Paving Taking Over The shift to large format outdoor tiles is one of the most consistent trends we see across Ireland and Northern Ireland. 60x60cm and 90x60cm porcelain slabs create fewer joints and give outdoor spaces a cleaner, more contemporary finish. They work particularly well in modern new builds and garden renovations where the outdoor space is treated as an extension of the interior rather than an afterthought. Browse Large Format Outdoior tiles Outdoor Tile Trends The outdoor looks our customers are choosing now From garden patios to terraces and commercial outdoor spaces, our showroom teams across Ireland and Northern Ireland see every type of outdoor project. These are the looks we are specifying most right now.

BOOK FREE CONSULTATION FAQS Common questions about outdoor tiles Armatile supplies premium outdoor porcelain tiles and paving to homeowners, architects and contractors across Ireland and Northern Ireland. With showrooms in Dublin, Belfast, Armagh and Newry, we are one of the most trusted outdoor tile suppliers on the island of Ireland. Do I need special tiles for outdoors? Yes. Standard indoor tiles are not suitable for outdoor use. Outdoor porcelain tiles need to be frost resistant, slip rated and thick enough to handle ground movement. We recommend 20mm porcelain pavers for all outdoor areas in Ireland. Using indoor tiles outdoors will risks cracking over winter. What thickness of tile do I need for a patio? For patios, terraces and garden paths in Ireland, 20mm is the standard and recommended thickness. It can be laid on a mortar bed, a gravel and sand base, or on adjustable pedestals for raised decking areas. For driveways or areas with vehicular access, confirm the load rating with our team before ordering. Are porcelain outdoor tiles slippery when wet? Our outdoor tile range is specifically selected for slip resistance in wet conditions. All outdoor tiles carry a PTV rating. PTV+36 is suitable for most patios and garden areas. We always advise on the right rating for your specific project when you visit our showrooms or book a consultation. What is the best way to clean outdoor porcelain tiles? Outdoor porcelain tiles are very easy to maintain. A regular sweep to remove debris followed by an occasional pressure wash is all that is needed to keep them looking their best. For stubborn stains like moss or algae, a porcelain-safe cleaning solution works well. Avoid bleach-based products as these can affect the grout over time. We stock a range of cleaning supplies in our showrooms, so ask our team for more details and they will point you in the right direction. How much waste allowance should I add for outdoor tiles? We recommend a minimum of 15% waste allowance for outdoor areas, and up to 20% if your space has curves, steps or complex cuts. Outdoor cuts are harder to redo once laid, so it is always better to over-order slightly. Ask in store for our returns policy on unused full boxes.

Bespoke colour options available on request. Components Panels, borders, corners, coordinating infills and decorative brass inserts available to combine as a modular system. About the Collection CLASSIC VICTORIAN FLOORS, MADE EASIER TO PLAN Traditional Victorian patterned floors were often individually laid, piece by piece, by skilled craftsmen working from a set layout. Beautiful results, but slow, demanding and dependent on getting the pattern alignment right before a single tile was set. Armatile's Victorian Geometric Collection removes that complexity entirely. Every pattern in the range comes pre-assembled on mesh backing sheets, with the tiles already aligned in the correct layout. A tiler beds the sheet rather than the individual tile, which means faster installation, a consistent finish and a far smaller margin for the kind of alignment errors that can compromise a patterned floor. The result is the same characterful, graphic quality you associate with Victorian floors, with a more straightforward installation approach and a wide range of colourways, patterns and scales to choose from.

Most people know exactly how they want a Victorian floor to feel. The harder part is picturing how it will actually look in their own hallway. Will the border sit properly around the door? How many panels will you need? What happens where the pattern meets a wall or a bathroom fitting? These are the questions that tend to slow a Victorian floor project down, and they are usually answered with a tape measure, a sketch and a fair bit of guesswork. That is why we built the Armatile Floor Planner. It allows you to draw your room, apply a Victorian panel and border at scale, and get a clearer idea of the layout and quantities before committing to the design. Here is how it works, and where it fits into planning a floor. Why Victorian Tile Floors Need More Planning A plain tile floor is fairly forgiving. If you are a little out on quantities, the pattern is not affected. A Victorian floor is different. The panels, border, corners and any plain infill all need to work together and the way they meet the walls decides how the whole floor looks. A border that lands awkwardly at a doorway, or a row of narrow cuts along one wall, can affect how balanced the finished floor feels. That is why the Victorian tile layout matters so much. If you would like some ideas on where this style works best, our guide to Victorian and patterned tile ideas for Irish homes is a good place to start before you plan the detail. Three Steps From an Empty Room to a Specification The Victorian tile planner is built around three simple steps. 1. Draw the room Type in the wall lengths, or draw the shape and drag the corners into place. You can add doorways and anything fixed to the floor, such as a kitchen island, so the layout reflects the room as it really is rather than an idealised rectangle. 2. Pick a pattern Choose an Armatile Victorian panel, then a border, and add plain infill or decorative insets if you want them. The floor redraws to scale as you make each choice, so you can compare colourways without having to imagine them. 3. Get the specification Download a specification PDF with every panel, border strip, corner and cut counted, or email the design to our sales team for a quote. A hallway drawn in the planner, laid in a Victorian panel with a matching border and counted automatically. Once you have a layout you like, you can bring it to one of our showrooms and talk through the colours and practical details with the team. Try the victorian planner What You Can Plan With The planner uses patterns and colourways from our Victorian Geometric Collection, so you can plan with designs available through Armatile. Colourways range from classic black and white chequered and Donard reds and beiges to greens, blues and softer greys. You can also choose from a range of matching borders, each with its own corner piece, plus plain infill if you would like a calmer band between the border and the pattern. Seeing the pattern to scale in your own room can give you a much clearer idea of how the finished floor could look than viewing a sample tile on its own. Where Can You Use the Victorian Tile Planner? Victorian panels are particularly well suited to hallways, porches and bathrooms, and these are also spaces where planning the layout in advance can be especially useful. Hallways. A narrow hallway is where border placement matters most. Drawing it first can help you see whether the pattern suits the proportions of the space. Porches and entrances. These are often compact enough to see the whole floor at once, which makes comparing two or three colourways very straightforward. Bathrooms & Kitchens. Fittings can make the layout more complicated, so it helps to mark them on the plan before you choose a pattern. What the Planner Counts Rather than giving you a rough square-metre figure, the planner works out the individual pieces: whole panels, border strips, corners and every cut where a wall, border or fixed object interrupts the pattern. Each cut appears on a cut sheet with its size. The specification you can download includes: the room and pattern layout a bill of materials a cut sheet a setting-out drawing installation notes The planner includes a wastage allowance for breakages and cutting, which can be adjusted to suit the project. Your tiler may have their own view on how much to allow, so it is worth talking it through with them. For a tiler, a specification like this can make the conversation quicker. For you, it means a clearer idea of what the job involves before anyone picks up a trowel. Victorian geometric tiles bring pattern and character to this traditional garden path What the Planner Does Not Do It is worth being clear about the limits. A Victorian floor planner is a starting point, not a replacement for a showroom conversation, a site visit or an experienced tiler. Quantities and prices are indicative until they are confirmed in a formal quote from our team. Adhesive, grout, screed and labour are not included. The planner covers the tiles themselves. Unusual angles may need manual review. The border corner pieces are 90 degrees, so any other angle is flagged for our team to look at by hand. Your floor still needs to be properly prepared. A flat, sound floor matters just as much with Victorian panels as it does with any other tile, and an experienced tiler will check this before starting. Questions People Often Ask Does it cost anything? No. The planner is free to use, and you only need an account if you want to save a design. Can I use it on my phone or tablet? Yes. The planner can be used on compatible phones and tablets, as well as desktop devices, making it easy to bring your design with you when visiting our showroom. Can I share the design? Yes. Each specification carries a QR code that opens the design online, so anyone with the printout can see the same floor and the same figures. Can I bring it to a showroom? Please do. A saved design or specification gives our team a clear starting point, and we can help you refine the layout and colour choices from there. Start With the Room You Have A good Victorian floor comes down to the same few things: the right pattern, a border that suits the room and a layout that has been properly thought through. Draw your hallway, porch or bathroom, try a few colourways and download the specification once you have something you like. You can also book a free design consultation and bring your plan with you, giving our team a clear starting point for your project.

Victorian and patterned tiles are often linked with hallway floors. That makes sense, because hallways are where this style has always felt most at home. But they are not just for hallways. The right Victorian or patterned tile can work beautifully in kitchens, bathrooms, porches, utility rooms, living spaces and other areas of the home. It all comes down to choosing a pattern, colour and layout that suits the space. Across our showrooms in Armagh, Belfast, Newry and Dublin, we see customers using Victorian and patterned tiles in all sorts of ways. Some want to restore character in an older home. Others want to add personality to a newer space. Either way, these patterns have lasted for a reason. They bring detail, structure and character to a room without needing much else. Where Victorian and Patterned Tiles Work Best Victorian and patterned tiles can work in more rooms than people often realise. Hallways are the obvious choice, but they can also look great in kitchens, bathrooms, cloakrooms, porches, utility rooms and living spaces. The main thing is making sure the pattern suits the size and style of the room. A bold geometric pattern can create a real feature. A softer colourway can add detail in a more subtle way. That is why Victorian and patterned tiles still feel relevant in both traditional and modern interiors. Armatile’s Victorian Collection includes a range of classic designs and colourways inspired by original period tile styles. The complete collection is available across all four of our showrooms. A well-chosen patterned tile does not need a period property to look right. Good patterns work because they are good design. Victorian Tiles in the Hallway The hallway is still one of the best places to use a Victorian or patterned tile floor. It is usually a contained space, so the floor can become the main feature. It also creates a strong first impression as soon as someone walks through the door. In older Irish homes, especially Victorian and Edwardian properties, a patterned hallway floor can help bring back some of the character that may have been lost over time. In newer homes, it can add personality to an otherwise simple entrance. You can keep the walls, doors and woodwork clean and neutral, then let the floor do the talking. A Victorian-style hallway floor adds pattern, colour and character to the entrance, with a border layout that frames the space beautifully. In a narrow hallway, the direction of the pattern matters. A diagonal or lengthways layout can help draw the eye down the hall and make the space feel longer. A pattern that runs across the width of the hallway can sometimes make it feel narrower. Victorian Tiles in Porches and Entrance Spaces Porches and entrance spaces are perfect places to use Victorian and patterned tiles. These areas are often smaller than a hallway, but they still create the first impression of the home. A patterned floor can make the entrance feel more considered and full of character, without needing much decoration elsewhere. A border layout works especially well in these spaces because it frames the floor and gives the pattern a clear edge. It also helps the design feel intentional, rather than just decorative. This is where Victorian-style flooring really comes into its own. It can suit period properties beautifully, but it can also add heritage character to newer homes when paired with simple walls, classic woodwork and natural styling. A Victorian-style patterned floor creates a striking entrance, using classic geometric detail and a border layout to frame the space beautifully. Victorian Tiles in the Bathroom Bathrooms can also suit Victorian and patterned tiles, as long as the pattern is chosen carefully. In a smaller bathroom, a softer or smaller pattern can add character without making the room feel too busy. In a larger bathroom or en suite, a chequerboard or decorative patterned floor can help anchor the space and reduce the need for lots of other decorative finishes. For bathroom floors, you still need to think about the practical details. Slip resistance, cleaning and grout choice all matter, just as they would with any other bathroom floor tile. For bathroom walls, patterned tiles can work well behind a bath, basin or shower area. In smaller bathrooms, a full wall of pattern can sometimes feel a bit much, so a feature panel or half-height tiled section can be a better choice. A Victorian-style patterned floor brings character to this bathroom, adding detail and contrast while keeping the walls and fittings simple. Victorian Tiles in the Kitchen Kitchens are another great place for Victorian and patterned tiles. A kitchen floor has to deal with daily use, spills, foot traffic and cleaning, so it needs to be practical. But that does not mean it has to be plain. A patterned floor can bring warmth and character to a kitchen, especially when the cabinets and worktops are quite simple. Chequerboard floors are especially popular, whether that is black and white, terracotta and cream, or softer neutral tones. This look can work in traditional farmhouse-style kitchens, but it can also look sharp in more modern open-plan spaces. For kitchen splashbacks, smaller Victorian-style or patterned wall tiles can also work well. You do not need to tile the whole kitchen in pattern. Sometimes a smaller feature behind the hob or sink is enough to give the room a bit of character. Victorian Tile Patterns and Colourways When choosing Victorian or patterned tiles, the colourway can completely change the feel of the room. Some designs feel classic and traditional, while others feel softer, warmer or more contemporary. Classic black and white chequerboard A timeless patterned tile look that works in hallways, bathrooms, porches and living spaces. Smaller formats feel more traditional, while larger chequerboard tiles can create a cleaner, more modern finish. Terracotta and cream A softer, warmer alternative to black and white. This colourway still has plenty of character, but the contrast feels more relaxed, making it a good choice for porches, utility rooms and homes where you want a warmer finish. Red, black and white geometric patterns A stronger heritage look that can create real impact in entrance halls, porches and larger floor areas. These designs usually work best where there is enough floor space for the full pattern to be seen properly. Decorative panels and borders A more traditional and formal option, often used where the floor is intended to be a main feature. Borders can help frame the space and make the layout feel more intentional, especially in hallways, porches and rectangular rooms. Getting the Grout Right Grout colour matters more with patterned tiles than people sometimes expect. Because the grout lines sit within the pattern, they become part of the overall look. A grout colour that closely matches one of the tile colours can soften the finish and make everything feel more connected. A contrasting grout can make the pattern feel stronger, but it needs to be chosen carefully so it does not fight with the design. With Armatile’s Victorian floors, the tiles are pre-assembled on mesh sheets and the grout joints are already set at around 2mm to 3mm. This makes installation more consistent and helps the finished floor keep that neat, traditional Victorian-style appearance. For most Victorian and patterned floors, a mid-tone grout is usually a safe and balanced choice. It works with the pattern rather than overpowering it, helping the colours, borders and details feel more connected.

A lot of people worry that patterned tiles will be harder to look after than plain tiles. In most cases, they are not. Modern porcelain patterned tiles are designed to be durable and easy to clean, making them practical for busy homes as well as decorative spaces. The main thing to look after is the grout, but that is true of any tiled floor or wall. Sealing the grout at installation and cleaning it regularly will help keep the finished surface looking its best. Final Advice Victorian and patterned tiles are not just for hallways. They can work in kitchens, bathrooms, porches, utility rooms and living spaces when the right pattern, colourway and format are chosen. The key is choosing a design that suits the room. A narrow hallway may need a different layout from a large kitchen. A compact bathroom may suit a softer pattern, while a bigger space can carry something bolder. If you are ready to start planning the layout, our guide to planning a Victorian tile floor online with the Armatile Floor Planner explains how to test patterns, borders and room layouts before visiting the showroom. If you are thinking about Victorian or patterned tiles for your home in Ireland or Northern Ireland, our showroom teams in Armagh, Belfast, Newry and Dublin can help you compare patterns, colours and layouts in person.

Belfast has a varied mix of period terraces, Edwardian homes, suburban family houses and newer flats, and each type of property brings different considerations when choosing tiles. That is where visiting a local showroom can help. At our Belfast showroom on Boucher Crescent, we regularly speak with homeowners, designers and architects about everything from compact bathrooms and narrow hallways to open-plan kitchens and full renovation projects. The right tile choice is rarely just about colour. Room size, natural light, how the space is used and the style of the property all play a part. Here are some of the things we often recommend to Belfast customers. Victorian and Edwardian Belfast Homes Many period homes across Belfast still retain the proportions and character of their original layouts, with narrow entrance halls, compact bathrooms and traditional architectural features worth working with rather than covering up. For hallways in these homes, a Victorian-style patterned floor can feel like a natural fit. It works well with the architecture while also giving the entrance to the home a strong visual identity. Borders are particularly effective in narrower hallways because they help frame the space rather than making the pattern feel too busy. Victorian geometric tile patterns and border layouts on display at our Belfast showroom, showing how traditional designs can work in period hallways and entrance spaces. In a narrow hallway, running a pattern lengthways can help draw the eye through the space. A border around the edge can also make the layout feel more considered. For smaller bathrooms, scale matters just as much as colour. A softer pattern or simpler layout can often work better than a very bold geometric design, particularly where the room has limited floor area. It is also worth thinking about slip resistance, grout colour and maintenance from the beginning rather than treating them as technical details to consider later. If you are working on a period property, our Victorian Geometric Collection is a useful place to start. New-Build and Flat-Style Belfast Homes Newer homes and flats around Belfast often have more open-plan layouts, larger areas of glazing and a cleaner architectural style. Large-format porcelain works particularly well in these spaces. Fewer grout lines can create a calmer, more continuous finish, which suits open-plan kitchens, dining areas and living spaces. Using the same or a closely related tile across adjoining spaces can also help smaller flats feel more connected. In homes with underfloor heating, porcelain is a practical choice because it transfers heat efficiently and works well as part of a properly installed heating system. Large-format porcelain tiles can create a cleaner, more continuous look in open-plan kitchens, living spaces and newer Belfast homes. If you are choosing tiles for a newer property, the main things to consider are scale, finish and continuity. A tile that looks oversized on a sample board can often feel much more balanced once it is installed across a larger floor area. You can explore more options on our floor tiles and kitchen tiles pages. Choosing Tiles for Belfast Entrances and Outdoor Areas Hallways, porches and entrance areas often have to deal with wet shoes, umbrellas and everyday dirt throughout autumn and winter. For these spaces, a matt or textured porcelain floor is usually more practical than a highly polished finish, particularly close to an external door. It tends to be easier to live with day to day and is better suited to busy entrance areas. If you are choosing a patterned or Victorian-style floor for a hallway, it is worth looking at the finish as closely as the pattern itself. For patios, paths and outdoor areas, choose porcelain paving that is specifically suitable for exterior use, with appropriate frost resistance and slip performance for the space. Porcelain paving is a practical option for Belfast patios and gardens, with outdoor-rated finishes designed for year-round use. Not every indoor tile is suitable outdoors, so it is always worth checking the specification before you buy. You can browse our outdoor tile collection or speak to the Belfast team if you are planning a patio, garden or entrance project. Large Tiles in Small Belfast Bathrooms One question we hear a lot is whether large tiles work in small bathrooms. In many cases, they can. Using a larger tile can reduce the number of grout lines, which can make a compact bathroom feel calmer and less visually broken up.The important thing is the condition of the floor and walls. Larger-format tiles require a flat, well-prepared surface, so preparation becomes even more important. Colour and finish also matter. Lighter tones can help reflect available light, while matt finishes often feel softer and more forgiving in smaller rooms. If you are working with a particularly compact bathroom, bring your room dimensions and a few photos into the showroom. It is much easier to recommend a suitable format once we can see the shape of the room. Explore more options on our bathroom tiles page. Can You Match Existing Victorian Hallway Tiles? Sometimes exactly, sometimes not. Original period floors can vary considerably in colour, size and pattern, especially if they have been in place for decades. Rather than promising an exact match, we usually recommend looking at the existing colours and proportions and choosing something that sits comfortably alongside them. In some cases, that means using a complementary border or replacing a whole section with a new pattern that feels appropriate to the age of the property. Our Victorian range includes a wide choice of colours, borders and geometric layouts, so there is often more flexibility than people expect. What About Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas? For most standard tiling work inside a home, planning permission is not usually the main concern. However, if the property is listed or located within a conservation area, it is worth checking whether any original features are protected before making changes. Parts of Belfast, including areas around Malone, Stranmillis and the Cathedral Quarter, fall within designated conservation areas. If the project involves original flooring or significant alterations to a period property, it is sensible to check with Belfast City Council or a relevant conservation officer before starting work.
