View full detailsA Guide to Penny Round Tile for Bathrooms
Penny tile gets its name from its resemblance to the size of a penny - typically 3/4" to 1" diameter circles mounted on mesh-backed sheets. This beloved mosaic format has been a staple of American bathrooms since the early 1900s and continues to be a design favorite today.
Why Penny Tile for Shower Floors
Penny tile is one of the best choices for shower floors. The small individual tiles conform to the gentle slope required for drainage, and the high ratio of grout to tile surface provides excellent traction when wet. Porcelain penny rounds with a matte or unglazed finish offer the best slip resistance. Use an epoxy grout for waterproof, stain-resistant joints.
Materials and Finishes
Porcelain penny tile is the most durable option, suitable for floors, walls, and wet areas. Ceramic penny tile offers a wider range of glazed colors for walls and backsplashes. Marble penny rounds - in Carrara, Thassos, and mixed stone - add natural luxury. Glass penny tile creates a luminous, reflective surface ideal for backsplash and accent wall applications.
Design Ideas for Bathrooms
Classic white penny tile with dark grout creates a vintage, retro look that suits bathrooms and kitchens. Monochrome penny tile with matching grout delivers a modern, textured surface. Mixed-color penny tile sheets create playful, mosaic-like patterns. Use penny tile as a border or accent strip alongside larger subway tile or square tile for visual contrast.
Installation and Grout
Penny tile comes on mesh-backed sheets that speed up installation. The curved tile edges mean grout joints are wider than with flat-edged tile, making grout selection important. Dark grout emphasizes the circular shape; matching grout creates a unified texture. Epoxy grout is recommended for wet areas as it resists mildew and staining. For shower floors, set sheets into thinset over a properly waterproofed and sloped mortar bed.
Is penny tile good for shower floors?
Penny tile is one of the best options for shower floors. The small, individual rounds conform to the slope needed for drainage, and the ample grout lines provide excellent traction. Choose unglazed or matte porcelain for the best slip resistance. Pair with epoxy grout for a waterproof, low-maintenance finish.
How do you clean penny tile?
Clean penny tile with a pH-neutral tile cleaner and a soft brush. The main challenge is keeping grout lines clean due to the high grout-to-tile ratio. Epoxy grout resists staining and makes maintenance easier. Avoid harsh acids that can damage grout. Sealing cement-based grout annually helps prevent discoloration.
What size is penny tile?
Standard penny round tiles measure approximately 3/4" to 1" in diameter. They come pre-mounted on mesh-backed sheets - typically 12x12 inches - for easy installation. Some manufacturers offer slightly larger "penny" rounds at 1.25" or "jumbo" rounds at 2" diameter for a modern twist on the classic format.
