    Default Looking for tiles

    Hello,

    I live in a 1930's house, when we brought the property I was aware of a few missing/broken tiles in our porch. I have now got round to decorating the porch and am trying to find the same tiles so I can repair my floor. I am searching for 5 black and 5 white 2inch by 2inch tiles, they are approx 10mm thick. My porch has a black & white checked pattern which I would love to keep but can not locate these tiles without buying at least 1 sq metre's worth which is going to cost me way over £100. Does anyone know where I can get these tiles where I can pay per tile, or does anyone have a few spare that I can buy from them.

    FIRST OF ALL to the forums.

    You will struggle to get an exact match but you can get these tiles from large tile shops such as Tile Giant,ctd and topps.

    Thank you Dave.
    Goodland - Original Style sell a 53x53mm black and white floor tile similar to your description.
    You could buy a larger 100mm tile and have them cut down to size.
    Which part of the country are you based.
    If you have no luck - PM me your details and exact size of your tiles - and I'll send you 10
