    Surely different peolpe with have their favs and this can be based on location or choice of adhesive etc...to say one is better than the other is silly...But what i can say is that Tile giant are not closing stores ...maybe something to do with the climate who knows but Tile giant are getting bigger month on month..And we have special prices for tilers arms members...

    I don't really have a lot of choice - got 4 Topps stores in my working area and no tile giant, think my closest is about 20 miles in the wrong direction!!
    Anyone from Tile Giant reading this please open a store near me soon....You've got a big gap in The Herts and Bucks area!

    well it looks like topps are best for you mate,considering the petrol costs if you are going to pick up materials,unless you plan ahead and pick the lot up in 1 go then tile giants forum rates would/could work for you

    Yeah, as above. You need to look into what's best for you as a business generally and ensure you're doing the best for your business interests (your profit/family/whatever).

    Checkout all the prices you can get, and checkout all the deals on offer, and always consider the logistics of it (picking it up/dropping it off, or getting it delivered).

    Hope you find a good supplier, you definately need one of those.

    I used to dislike topps as they were very expensive and once charged me over £50 for an £8 bag of adhesive but in the recent months when i have used them their prices were reasonable and customer service was good ,Tile giant have not got a store in my area, nearest is over 20miles away which is a shame as i would use them if they were nearer as i have seen some nice materials when i visited one of their stores in london

    i've got topp's and tile giant across the road from one an other 6miles east and the same again 6 miles west.

    tile giant are by far my fav, not only because the price i get my mats for with my tf members discount but also because they are friendlier and there's a rather rude woman works at my local topp's
