    Default Any help please ?

    Hi all,
    I am trying to locate some tiles for a doorstep. They are similar to "Ruabon Reds" CBRT.... a coving tile for the front fascia of the step. But they dont do the dimensions I need. I only need 6. They are to help out a customer who has not been able to find any for themselves..........I realise they are probably really old and wonder if a reclaim site may be the route to go down ?
    So far I cannot find anything.
    I did mail Dennis Ruabon.....but nobody bothered to answer !

    Any help anyone ?

    Thanks
    Silver

    Unfortunately without pics or tile dimensions it's a bit difficult. Did a quick search on google:

    USED red ruabon tiles - Liverpool - Adzooks.co.uk

    Wall tiles, floor tiles, mosaic tiles, kitchen tiles, bathroom tiles - Walls and Floors Ltd
    I called it love - the judge called it stalking !!!

    Hi Taz,
    thanks for your prompt reply and help.
    When I checked out the Ruabon website their "similar tile (CBRT) is wrong dimension. but right shape.
    In inches which these would have been......the size I need is
    H=3.5" L=6"
    Curvature out at the bottom, normal radial skirt curve at the top, depth from front of bottom curve to back of tile = 1"........

    I tried all sorts of sites but couldnt find a thing. They must be out there somewhere ?

    Thanks again Taz.

    I know the type you mean now.....Old imperial sizes are hard to source......

    As you mentioned , i think a reclamation yard is your best bet...
