    Some tiles are still available but pilks do go under last year.

    CTD are the biggest stockists of pilks..

    why pilks 6x6 anyway... you can get brazilian 6x6 for a 3rd of the price of pilks.. and spot on for contract work

    The spec for the job states pilks and I have been told that clerk of works is checking all materials used on the site are of the correct spec , but at least now I'm armed with the info that they are now no longer trading . Ive been using BCT whites for years on other sites and had no probs, but this guy is supposed to be a jobs worth . Thanks , lawrence

    once you explain to the clerk that pilks have ceased trading and their tiles are no longer available he will be happy to chose an alternative tile, i would probably go with johnsons or bct so they can source replacements in the future if need be, good luck with it

    Topps might be worth a visit
    the bloke was telling me today that they bought all the Pilkingtons stock when they went bust.
    I don't know the full story but they had a few Pilkingtons on display 'cos i was looking at some for a job myself...
