Hexagon tiles are here to stay. Would you believe hexagon floor tiles were all the rage in the 1900s alongside our beloved subway tiles and penny round tiles? Today, as with most reinvented trends, they come in all different sizes and colours. The most favourite and timeless is the hexagon mosaic tiles in a traditional black or white colour. Read our guide on tile shapes explained to help you choose the best tiles for your home.
Hexagon tiles are for every house and almost every style, they can be classic, eclectic or even minimalist depending on how you use them in your home. For a modern style try a dark metallic mosaic tile, hexagon marble tiles for contemporary elegance, or even coloured glass to make your splashback pop.
Hexagon wall tiles are quite ingenious as they are a rectangular wall tile but have a structured surface to look like hexagon mosaic tiles. They are very cost-effective and look amazing as a bathroom wall feature, or use them as a practical kitchen splashback tile. Laundry tiles often miss out on all the fun, it might not be a room on display, but it’ll give you a grin to see the hexagon theme carried throughout your home.
Individual hexagon tiles can be a bit tricky to lay for beginners, but a hexagon mosaic sheet is most helpful, and the structured hexagon pattern on wall tiles is also a smart choice for a DIY.

If you are a newcomer to DIY projects, then hexagon tiles can be quite challenging to install. While they are certainly manageable, you will need to leave yourself plenty of time and pay close attention to details to avoid mistakes. We recommend dry laying your tiles before starting, this will help in working out what cuts you need to make, and if you’re really organised number each sheet or tile in sequence to make the actual installation super straightforward.
To determine how many hexagons you will need to tile a space, you must work out the area of a single tile and the area of the floor or wall. The number of tiles required for each project can be calculated by finding the floor area divided by the tile area. Be aware that hexagon tiles may not be cut in the same ways as rectangular tiles. We recommend you normally purchase 10% more tiles than you need for broken tiles or required offcuts, but it does not hurt to purchase extras as this shape is extra tricky.
To successfully lay hexagon tiles you will need to pay close attention to each step.
To save time, try and purchase spacers that are made for hexagon tiles. To create a uniform look, you should strive for equal spacing between tiles, using said spacers to hold their place before grouting. Begin by mapping out your layout for the tiles, starting in the middle of the room and working out.
Depending on the type of hexagon tiles you are using, there are a few ways that you can cut them. One method involves scoring the tiles one by one, then snapping them and using a knife to cut any mesh backing. Alternatively, you can cut hexagon tiles of assorted sizes with a wet saw. If neither of these options is suitable for your situation, you could use an angle grinder, but this method may produce less reliable cuts, affecting the finished result.
