Trims VS Mitres

Mitres are a luxury finish, creating a seamless and high-end look that blends perfectly with premium tiles.

They require precise 45-degree cuts, often slightly overcut, followed by careful finishing to achieve a sharp, clean edge. When resin-filled, they offer added durability, but the process is time-consuming and demands a high level of craftsmanship.

However, not all trims are the same. Basic trims can detract from a high-end design, whereas premium trims, available in a range of finishes, can complement fixtures and enhance the overall look of a bathroom.

When used correctly, high-quality trims provide a clean and polished edge without compromising on style.

Well-executed trim work can still sit comfortably within a luxury bathroom.

As with most elements, the better the finish, the more you should expect to invest.

The process itself can be dusty and labour-intensive, and those who carry it out regularly are exposed to ongoing health risks. This, alongside the level of skill required, is reflected in the cost.

Mitres are a choice for those who prioritise aesthetics and are willing to invest in the additional time and workmanship.

Trims are the standard way to finish tile edges, offering durability and ease of installation.
