Porcelain tiles query!

[MICH]

Hi,

Doing my first paid job tomorrow, laying porcelain tiles on a small porch. Do they need to be sealed before grouting? If so, does anyone know how much it would cost, 3 1/2 foot by 3.

Thanks for your help,

Mich

Are they polished porcelain.....?...riven finish,,? or print finished...?

Only throughbodied needs sealing....as the pores are open to grab grout/stains etc....sealing aids in the cleaning of them....

If the have a print/glazed finish then they will be fine..
