Wood-Look Terrace Wall Tiles — Warm Timber Aesthetic with Premium Durability
Bring the charm of natural wood to your exterior or interior zones with our collection of wood-look terrace tiles. These specially-designed tiles serve both wall and floor applications, making them perfect for terraces, balconies, accent walls, and even indoor feature flooring. Crafted in vitrified material with a carving matt finish, they deliver texture, aesthetic depth and long-term performance.
Available in versatile formats: 12×18 inch, 12×48 inch, and 24×48 inch, these sizes offer flexibility from compact zones to large-span coverage. With pricing ranging from approximately ₹40 per sq.ft to ₹100 per sq.ft, you can choose the right size, pattern and budget that fits your design vision.
Why These Wooden Terrace Tiles Are a Great Choice
-
Timber aesthetic with tile-grade performance: Capture the look of wood without the maintenance issues (warping, fading, sealing) common to natural timber.
-
Dual application (wall & floor): Use behind seating walls on the terrace, feature elevation walls, or as durable flooring under open-sky conditions.
-
Vitrified material benefits: Strong, low-porosity, stain-resistant and suited for Indian climate (humid, sun-exposed, rain prone).
-
Carving matt finish: Adds tactile texture, reduces glare, and improves slip-resistance — especially important for terraces and outdoor zones.
-
Wide colour palette & sizes: From light ash woods to rich walnut tones, and sizes from 12×18 to 24×48 inches — good for custom layouts and scaled spaces.
Where & How to Use Them
-
Terrace flooring: Use the 24×48 size for a seamless plank-look across the terrace floor, creating a wood-deck feel but with tile durability.
-
Wall cladding: Use 12×48 or 12×18 on terrace walls, balustrades, or even indoor accent walls behind shelving or TV consoles.
-
Balcony / outdoor lounge: Coordinate floor and walls in similar tone for a cohesive, resort-like outdoor living feel.
-
Indoor extensions: Take the outdoor wood-look inside by extending straight into the living room or sheltered corridor for a unified transition.
Design & Planning Tips
-
Align the “planks” thoughtfully: Lay longer formats (24×48) in the direction of the longest wall or the view axis to enhance visual flow.
-
Synergise with materials: Pair with natural stone, matte-black metal rails, greenery (planters) to enhance the outdoor feel.
-
Grout & joint strategy: Use fine joints (< 2 mm) and grout colour matched to wood tone for a seamless plank effect.
-
Lighting matters: Use warm-white (2700-3000 K) lighting on terraces to enhance the wood effect; avoid stark cool whites which can flatten the texture.
-
Ensure correct rating for outdoor use: Even though these are vitrified, verify slip-resistance (R10/R11) and weather durability for exposed terrace floors.
Installation & Care
- Ensure the substrate is properly levelled and sealed for terrace floors (especially if exposed to rain). Consider using waterproof under-layer if direct to slab.
- For wall applications, ensure proper adhesive rated for exterior use and follow manufacturer’s recommendations for outdoor exposure.
- Use non-staining grout and seal edges where walls meet floor, especially in outdoor or semi-outdoor zones.
- Routine maintenance: Sweep debris, rinse with mild pH-neutral cleaner; avoid harsh acids or aggressive mechanical abrasives which can damage the surface finish.
Styling Inspiration
Imagine a terrace floor done in elongated 24×48 wood-look planks with built-in seating and lush potted plants — the result: a relaxing, warm outdoor lounge. Or a feature wall at the far end of the terrace clad in 12×48 wood-look tiles, creating a backdrop of texture and depth behind an outdoor dining setup. Indoors, the same tile can be used on a wall behind a media unit or even as a transitional floor to bring the outdoor-feel inside.
