    Default Tile Industry Magazines - Tile Mags

    I'm sure most of you are already aware but for those that are not; we have two industry magazines that have lots of information in them related to the tile industry in general, tile news, tools and tile suppliers, and all sorts of other write-ups and whatnot.

    The two are Tile UK published by Gearing Media Group and TSJ - Tile and Stone Journal, Tiling Magazine

    Both are brilliant magazines and well worth a read.

    You can subscribe to them both or simply view the Tile UK mag online by clicking on the cover of the current months mag on their website.

    I got TSJ free for a while but it was going to my old address so they sent me 6 months back issues and I'm back on their system with the correct address.

    Me and Dave used to get TileUK free but neither of us get it now. Need to chase that up.

    I use to get TSJ as well, must change my address details with them.

    The old dear that bought my house must be an expert on tiles and stone by now, she has been getting it for 18 months, she must open it and think "ooh the womens weekly has changed a lot"

    Had a flick through Tile UK online there, seems to have a very 'paid product review' feel to it.

    Then again, I suppose all magazines are like that.

    We're in the TSJ on the Feb2010 issue. They did a bit of a tool article over a few pages. We dont have any editorial influence on what they write but they dont do a Simon Cowell and say something is terrible..



    Close up



    We got quite a nice write up. Mind you we have a full page ad in there (Page 59)

    I got interviewed by Tile UK last month ( page 50 i think ), supposed to be a rival mag to TSJ.

    Hi Phil!. The nomination was a good one, many thanks really to Dr Barbara Rae.

    Micheal Marsoun is a natural stone GOD!!!, some really good ideas, expensive book though!. Phil though i'm sure your just as worthy..
