As the name suggests, a pencil trim is a slender strip that serves as the final component to give your tiling design a refined closing detail.

Frequently Asked Questions about Pencil Tile Trim

1. Can I add tile trim after tiling

Adding a pencil liner will give flair to your new design. To complete this process, you will need to choose a finishing piece suitable for your area of application. It’s worth noting that, like standard tiles, certain edge material is suitable for shower walls but not floors. Others are rated for both surfaces while some options can be installed in the bathroom but not the steam room. When shopping online, make sure to check “Area of Use” to ensure the product lines up well with your design needs.

2. Is edge tiling material necessary?

Pencil trims are necessary for both aesthetic and practical reasons. They add a professional and impressive finish. At the same time, they seal your installation against moisture, prevent chipping, and cover sharp hazardous edges.

3. How does a pencil liner work?

A pencil liner can be used to provide a seamless transition where tiles meet or as a closing detail for corners and edges. Whether adding detailing to a stunning shower wall, a decorative accent around the fireplace surround, or a backsplash border design that is as beautiful as it is functional, we have the perfect trim for every project.

4. What pencil trim styles are available?

Protective and decorative edge trims are available in many design variations. From matte, plain hues to honed marble to wood glass finish. Be inspired by Apollo Tiles’ product range for commercial and residential use. Browse our collection and shop now to complement your creative tile design.

5. What is the best material for tile trims?

Just like selecting standard tiles, make sure to invest in quality trim you can trust. We carry finishing pieces in glass, marble, and ceramic with robust strength and durability that will stand the test of time.

6. How do I determine how much trim to shop for?

To determine how much pencil trim you need to complete your project, we recommend the total measurement in linear footage. To do this, measure the length of each side of the surface where it is to be installed and divide the total by the length of your trim. Make sure to invest in extra pieces to give yourself room for error.

7. How do I install pencil trims for a professional look?

To start application, spread and even out adhesive on the edges where the trim will be applied. Press the pencil liner into this place to the correct level, ensuring the trim and tile flush to form a smooth, professional look. Repeat the same process until you’ve covered the edges and finish off by completing the rest of your installation.

In areas where tiles are bound to get wet, make sure to leave a 2mm gap between the edge of the tile and the trim. Then grout the space to guarantee a watertight finish. To keep clean, use the same pH tile cleaner you would for standard tiles—nothing too harsh or abrasive.

For tough stains, a soft-bristled brush and some elbow grease should be enough to give tiles their exquisite shine. Marble pencil tile trim isn’t 100% non-porous so we recommend sealing after installation to guard against moisture and stains.

8. Where can I find the best pencil tile trim for sale?
