    Smile 4 tile pattern with certain amounts/sizes of tiles per box but no pattern given.

    hi all

    ive got a 30sq mtr floor to lay with porcelain tiles called earthstone, problem is they come in a box which i think is 1.44sq mtrs which includes

    2 x 600mm x 400mm
    2 x 400mm x 300mm*
    6 x 200mm x 400mm
    4 x 160mm x 160mm

    * i think thats the size, ordered tiles awhile ago and they are at the customers house.

    the supplier doesnt supply a pattern.

    my question, is there a website where i can type in the measurements and it will produce patterns for me or do i have to try and figure it out myself.

    thank you for any info or advice in advance

    I think the sizes you have there are wrong and it sounds like an Opus ramano pattern..

    60x40
    40x40
    20x40
    20x20

    normally.. others wise they will not interlock for a set pattern.

    hi

    the amounts of tiles per box doesnt work with your diagram, there is definitly 6 20x40 tiles and 2 60x40 and 2 of the next large tiles which im not to sure of the size although one way is 40cm. there is also 4 15 x 15 although i mistakenly put 16 x 16 above.

    thank you for getting back to me though

    There will probably be a pattern diagram on the box. I did a floor a couple of years ago that came with 5 different sizes and each box was about 1.44sqm. I just followed the diagram on the box and all was well.

    There are quite a few websites that display tile patterns, just do a search if you want something printable.

    Good luck,

    thanks

    there is no pattern on the box and the tile shop lads have phoned the suppliers and they dont have a pattern either.
    my customer has been looking for a pattern on the internet but no luck yet.
