Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Subway tile has stayed a top choice for kitchens and bathrooms for over a century because of its clean lines and versatility. It works equally well in traditional and modern spaces, and swapping the layout or grout color is an easy way to keep the look current.
The classic 3x6 size remains the most popular choice and suits most kitchen layouts. Larger formats create a more modern look with fewer grout lines, while smaller tiles add more detail and texture.
Running bond (the classic brick offset) is the most traditional layout, while herringbone and vertical stack patterns give a more modern feel. All three work with the same tile, so the choice comes down to personal style rather than the material itself.
A white or light gray grout gives a soft, seamless look that keeps the focus on the tile. Darker grout, like charcoal or black, creates more contrast and makes the pattern itself stand out. Either way, it's worth testing a sample against your countertop and cabinets before committing.
Subway tile is low maintenance thanks to its smooth, glazed surface. A simple wipe-down with warm water and mild soap handles everyday grime, and an occasional grout sealing keeps stains from setting in over time.
