Anyone used porcelanosa tiles .

Are they any good???????

[garythetiler]

i found them to be very good, just dont expect to leave with them the same day as you buy them our local one is so massive you have to call them the day before so they can pick your order for the next day good choice of designs and well manufactured

Yeah, they are nice and easy to work with.
As long as the tiles are on site you'll have no problems.

are the porcelain tiles as good as the stone ones and is sealing required?

Done a few of jobs with their tiles, very pricey (for the cm compared to other suppliers!), but pretty good in terms of size tolerances/consistency and haven't had any issues with cr*p on the back of the tile like you get from some the bigname sheds I wouldn't care to name!

Worth looking at their showrooms if you haven't before, great for ideas and always imaculately presented.

done acres with them, and always found them to be very good. If I had one complaint it's that sometimes the glaze is soft and liable to chip easily if you're not careful.

Is the natural stone better or the porcelain?

The bigger Porcelnosa tiles are bloody heavy to lift! The 800x400 only come in a pack of three. Any more and you couldn't lift them.



I guess the main difference between natural stone and large format porcelain tiles is that the latter is a uniform mix of material so very installer friendly.

Stone is natures choice so a little unpredictable in how it will handle.

If you ever want to see a website that is homage to porcelain then look no further than this site

i use them all the time,very well made tiles,very rarely get a deformed or bubbled glazed one. the large ones are a p.i.t.a. we were reciently using the 900 x350 glass ones ,nightmare to cut without splintering.like working with slabs

[garretridge]

yes they are a very nice tile to work with but have to agree a little pricey but you get what you pay for!

tiling firm who i used to work with used to use all porcelanosa tiles on the new house very nice to work with never used a crap tile yet definetly recommended

Yep, used loads, very good quality, but dont let the customer drop a box down the stairs and smash them becuase you aint got much chance of getting a replacement box the same day.
