Carpet Tiles Melbourne

Carpet tiles in Melbourne for offices, shops and busy rooms

A carpet tile is a piece of carpet with its own backing, most often a square and sometimes a plank shape. Carpet tiles are laid piece by piece, not rolled out like carpet from a roll. This page holds more than 160 products, many of them loop pile tiles in solution-dyed nylon, a fibre made for heavy foot traffic.

Why choose carpet tiles

• A worn or stained tile can be lifted and replaced without a new floor.
• Tiles come in boxes, which helps in lifts and on upper floors.
• In an office, cables and floor boxes stay within reach under the tiles.
• Colours and patterns can be mixed to mark out zones and walkways.

What to check on a range

Many ranges name the fibre and the pile construction on their card. Solution-dyed nylon has its colour through the whole fibre, which helps it keep its look in busy areas. Tell us the size of the area and the kind of traffic, and we short-list the ranges that fit.

Laying patterns

The same tile gives a different look by the way it is turned: all in one direction, a quarter turn like a chessboard, or offset like bricks. The maker's guide names the laying patterns that suit each range. Carpet tiles need a clean, flat, dry subfloor, so that the edges sit tight and the joins stay hard to see.

Carpet tiles at home

Carpet tiles also work in home offices, play rooms and other hard-working rooms, where a floor that can be repaired tile by tile makes sense. In a shop or an office, tiles also make a later change of layout easier. For bedrooms and living rooms see our carpet range.
