# Split Face Tiles 350 x 180 mm – Natural Stone Wall Tiles

Split Face Tiles 350 x 180 mm offer a practical way to create natural stone feature walls without using traditional full-depth stone masonry. Their textured surfaces bring depth, shadow and natural colour variation to interior walls, making them a popular choice for living rooms, fireplaces, media walls, hallways and decorative commercial spaces.

The 350 x 180 mm rectangular format is suitable for both small feature areas and larger wall installations. Individual tiles can be arranged in horizontal courses to create a continuous stone finish, with the naturally uneven surface providing the distinctive three-dimensional appearance of split face stone.

At Paving Slabs Direct®, we supply natural stone wall tiles through our established import and distribution network, offering competitive prices for homeowners, builders, interior contractors and trade customers.

## Natural Split Face Stone for Interior Feature Walls

Unlike flat ceramic wall tiles, natural split face tiles have a textured surface formed by individual stone pieces and natural cleft faces. This creates changing light and shadow across the wall, giving a room more character without relying on decorative wallpaper or artificial printed patterns.

The 350 x 180 mm format can be used in a range of residential and commercial interiors:

-   **Living Room Feature Walls:** Add natural texture behind furniture, shelving and seating areas.
-   **Media Walls:** Create a decorative stone background around television installations.
-   **Fireplace Surrounds:** Provide a natural stone appearance where the product and installation system are suitable for the expected temperatures.
-   **Hallways and Entrances:** Introduce a textured architectural finish to smaller spaces.
-   **Commercial Interiors:** Suitable for decorative walls in offices, reception areas, shops and hospitality spaces.

## 350 x 180 mm Split Face Tiles – Size and Installation

The 350 mm length and 180 mm height provide a rectangular wall tile suitable for horizontal laying patterns. The modular dimensions allow installers to plan wall coverage and cut tiles where necessary around corners, sockets and adjoining surfaces.

These natural stone tiles are generally more manageable for smaller wall projects than large, heavy stone cladding panels. They may be suitable for competent DIY installation, provided the substrate is sound, sufficiently strong and compatible with the chosen adhesive system.

Before installation, check the wall condition, tile weight, adhesive specification and manufacturer instructions. Use a suitable cement-based adhesive designed for natural stone, and ensure adequate coverage and support. External walls, wet areas and fireplace installations require additional consideration of exposure, waterproofing, temperature and fixing requirements.

Because these are natural stone products, differences in colour, thickness and surface relief may occur. Tiles should be mixed from different boxes during installation to distribute the natural variation across the finished wall.

## Split Face Tiles 350 x 180 mm – Frequently Asked Questions

### Can 350 x 180 mm split face tiles be used for a DIY feature wall?

Yes, they may be suitable for DIY interior feature walls where the installer has the necessary tiling experience and the wall can safely support the combined weight of the tiles and adhesive.

### Do split face tiles need grouting?

Many split face tiles are designed for close-jointed installation without conventional visible grout lines. However, the correct jointing method depends on the tile construction and the installation environment.

### Can split face tiles be installed over plasterboard?

Only where the plasterboard system has sufficient load-bearing capacity for the complete installation. Check the tile weight, adhesive and substrate limits before fixing natural stone tiles.

### Are split face tiles suitable for outdoor walls?

Only if the specific tile is approved for exterior use and installed on a suitable substrate using a weather-resistant fixing system. Not every decorative split face tile is suitable for prolonged outdoor exposure.

### How many 350 x 180 mm tiles cover one square metre?

Each tile has a nominal face area of 0.063 m². Approximately 15.87 tiles cover one square metre before allowing for joints, cuts or wastage. For practical estimating, allow approximately 16 tiles per m², subject to the actual dimensions and installation layout.
