    Default Porselenosa Tiles

    Can anyone advise regarding the quality of Porselenosa floor tiles please? We have been quoted a price of £50 per sq metre (including tiles, fitting etc) but think this is a bit pricey. Does anyone have experience & knowledge of whether it's worth paying this price if these are superior tiles? Any advice welcome.....

    Ive always found Porcelenosa tiles to be of really good quality, try shopping around a bit and if your doing a large area dont be afraid to ask the tile shop for discount some will give you up to 25% off and then call a couple of tilers for price for laying tiles only. Cheers Mick

    They produce some of the best tiles IMO. £50/sqm fitted, is a really good price. The tiles in my hallway were £43/sqm and I had to fit them myself

    You could always contact Porcelanosa yourself and ask the price of the tiles?

    Yep supply and fit of quality tiles at 50 quid is good.

    Make sure VAT isnt to go on top of that though!!

    Why not? Surely to be legal VAT has to be applied at some point?

    Companies all over the world copy Porcelanosa tiles and sell them at competitive prices!
    But none of them can compete with the quality.
    If you like the tile of your choice and it is within your budget - go for it!
    At the price you've been quoted for supply and fix I'd note how much the tile is costing - because it looks like the tiler is subsidising the job!
