What to Look Out for When Choosing Peel and Stick Tiles For Stairs Wall?

When choosing peel and stick tiles, there are a few important factors to consider to ensure they hold up well on your high traffic staircase wall over time.

Strong Vinyl or PVC  Material: Look for tiles made of durable flexible PVC or vinyl. These materials can withstand bumps and impacts better than ceramic or porcelain.

Tiles Thickness: Opt for tiles at least 3mm thick for rigidity and impact resistance.

Surface Finish (Textured Tiles): A textured non-slip surface on the tiles provides added traction on vertical surfaces.

Pattern Design: Browse designs ranging from natural stone and woodgrains to bright patterns. Choose a look that suits your home's style.

Consider Pre Cut Tiles Option: It's best to choose pre cut tiles to reduce installation time versus cutting tiles to fit.

Strong Adhesive: Choose High-performance self-adhesive peel and stick tiles formulated to bond tightly to the surface.

For example, if your total stair wall is 96 inches long and tiles are 12” each, divide 96 by 12 and you'll need 8 tiles for full coverage.
