victorian tiling

[Abstract tiling]

hi all just been to look at a repair job it was old victorian tiles, quite a few had cracked and come loose she wanted the cracks filling in with something that would match the colour of the tiles(terracotta) i mentioned it might be better if she tried getting some reclaimed tiles from some where,so does any1 have any ideas to what i could use to fill the cracks, personally i wouldnt like this but thats what she wanted doing,also is they a decent reclamation yard in the leeds area?? thanks

i think there is one near the yorkshire tv building on burley road. i dont know if its mainly furniture they do but you could try google for it. other than that try porcelanosa for the grout. customer supplied some on a job. not nice to use but nice colour

How about Fimo Clay. comes in loads of colours and goes bl**dy hard so would be good enough for foot traffic I would have thought. Not a proprietary product for the job though..just trying to be innovative

I would have thought a PM to Timeless John is the answer here, have you seen what he can do with victorian floors? Master craftsman
