Frequently Asked Questions - Stick on Tiles

What are Peel and Stick on Tiles?

Peel and stick on tiles are self adhesive tiles that are designed to be installed over existing tiles or other surfaces. They require no grout, are easy to clean, are inexpensive and can dramatically makeover your kitchen, bathroom or laundry with little effort.

What is the difference between Composite and Vinyl Tiles?

Our Composite and Vinyl Stick on Tiles offer a range of styles, colours and finishes to revamp your project space. The Composite Tiles are made from PVC materials with a laminate finish measuring 4mm in thickness. The Vinyl Tiles have a glossier finish and are 2.5mm in thickness. Both are incredibly realistic and easy to install, requiring a sharp stanely knife (and some silicone for a high quality finish) to complete your DIY project.

What surfaces can I use Stick on Tiles on?

Existing tiles, gyprock, glass, painted walls, acrylic, stainless steel, aluminium or plastic surfaces. Just make sure the surface is clean and dry before installation

What dimensions are the Stick on Tiles?

Each design does vary in size, be sure to read the product information for each tile to confirm its dimensions before ordering.

Can I use Stick on Tiles in wet areas such as showers?

Our Vinyl and Composite tile ranges are water-resistant by design, making them suitable for use in areas like bathrooms splashbacks, splash zones, kitchens and laundry rooms. However, when it comes to direct water exposure—such as inside shower enclosures—additional waterproofing measures are essential.

Shower Use (Direct Water Exposure):

While not part of our official installation recommendation, some customers have successfully used both Vibyl and Composite tiles in shower areas by:

- Sealing all perimeter edges and corners with waterproof silicone.

- Applying silicone between vinyl tile sheet joins to prevent water ingress.

- Filling Composite tile grout lines or beveled edges with either waterproof silicone or epoxy grout to ensure full coverage.

While we do not recommend placing tiles directly in shower areas, thousands of customers have successfully installed our peel & stick tiles in bathrooms and wet zones using proper sealing techniques — without issue.

Please note: These installation methods are customer-applied and fall outside our standard guidelines.As such, installations in wet areas like showers are not covered under warranty. Performance will ultimately depend on correct application of sealing products.

Can I use Stick on Tiles on floors?

We do not recommend you use our Vinyl or Composite Wall Tiles for flooring as we cannot guarantee the longevity of the products on these high traffic surface, however we do have a range of Vinyl Floor Tiles! 

Can I remove the Stick on Tiles?

Yes the tiles can be removed in the future, however, may leave adhesive residue or lift some paint off in the removal process. We recommend you first heat up the adhesive glue using a hair dryer and then slowly peel them off. 

Is it safe to use Stick on Tiles behind the stove / hot plates?

We recommend allowing at least 30 cm of space from the centre of the back stove top burner to the splashback area when installing Stick on Tiles. This is to ensure safe installation and to prevent any heat-related damage.

While we do not recommend placing tiles directly next to open flames or extremely high heat sources, over 10,000 customers have successfully installed our peel & stick tiles in kitchens with closer clearances—without any issues.

How many sheets of tiles will I get?

We sell all our tiles by the sheet. The dimensions listed on each product are for a single sheet. The below graphic further explains this.
