Whilst my camera work might not be David Bailey quality a blind man on a galloping horse couldn't fail to spot these problems.

Ouch! someone in QC was having a very bad day. Or a very good day whilst under the influence of Gin.

Can imagine a job after these having been laid. It'd be like a walk in the Peak District. Cracks, crevices with hills and bumps a'plenty!

I put a lot of BCT tiles on , ye you get the odd firing fault as above , I just use them for cuts.

They aren't the flatest of tiles but most ceramics arn't :). They do some nice ranges in the HD selection.

We sell quite a lot. The HD ranges were very good but alot of them have now been made exclusive to various other companies. We also have an in house designer who invented a range, we got them printed by BCT and the patterns didn't line up and we had to sell them off a seconds. Happy to say this has now been sorted after much trial and error. But before we give BCT a complete slating, I'd say that I quite like the other 95% of stuff they do and hardly ever have any quality, tolerance or shading issues.

Good service as well... The Rep for the North is spot on.

Ain't BTC the ones that try selling the wall tiles for the floor?

Yep I've fitted some BCT that were bought through Bathstore, they are ceramic and just 2mm thicker than wall tile and it does state on the box that are are both wall and floor tiles
