Stone Effect Tiles

Stone effect porcelain tiles have a structured and natural textured surface that is suitable for use indoors and outdoors. The durability of stone effect porcelain tiles means that they are made from high-quality porcelain and are great for use in high traffic areas and will stand the test of time. With advanced inkjet printing technology, it means that stone effect tiles can be produced to look incredibly realistic. The stone effect is so close to looking like natural stone that many won’t be able to tell the difference. The veining and intricate details found in the likes of marble or granite can now be replicated using these advanced printing methods to create porcelain tiles that look as beautiful as the real thing. New to our Italian range is a Step wise technology allowing the tiles to maintain a high slip rating but also having a soft touch. In addition to this there is now the possibilities of being able to create a tumbled more natural looking edge compared to a straight edge if preferred on some of our selected porcelain tiles. In Exeter we have a vast range of stone effect porcelain tiles from Spain and Italy.

Concrete Effect Tiles

Concrete effect porcelain tiles are part of the Urban trend that continues to be in fashion with many Interior Designers. The concrete effect offers an industrial, worn look which emulates a concrete or cement surface. Concrete effect tiles show the variation in textures, shades and finishes which actual concrete has. The concrete effect tile is suitable for both modern and Traditional Decors, it is suitable to use for both interior and outdoor applications. Our range of high-quality concrete effect tiles come in a variety of sizes, finishes and styles. In Exeter we have a vast range of concrete effect porcelain tiles from Spain and Italy.

Wood Effect Tiles

Wood effect porcelain tiles look just like natural timber; however the tiles are incredibly hard-wearing and won’t rot or warp when they get wet. Using advanced inkjet technology, it enables the porcelain to have a natural wood grain effect that includes the texture and knots of the wood. The wood effect tiles are very textured to touch and from a distance it is hard to see the difference from natural timber to porcelain. Our range of wood effect tiles allow you to create a herringbone and chevron effect, basket weave or install in a planked wood bond to achieve the desired look. In Exeter we have a vast range of wood effect tiles from Spain and Italy which are also available in a 20mm thickness making them suitable for exterior use.

Large Tiles

In Exeter we have an extensive range of large format porcelain tiles, thanks to the tile development of laminate pressing technology, porcelain tiles in a size of up to 1200 x 3600mm have a slimmer thickness of even 3.5mm can be produced. Although the large tile is much larger than a normal sized tile it still maintains its mechanical properties and visual appeal synonymous with porcelain tiles. This has allowed new applications to be used for building and interior design, bathroom wall and floor tiles and large floor areas for any room. Using a larger porcelain tile means less grout lines and quite often makes an area appear bigger. The larger format tiles can also be used for external cladding of buildings making them mechanically suitable and aesthetically pleasing. Our range of our largest format tiles are Spanish and we also have a lot of large tiles that are Italian.

Patterned Tiles

Patterned tiles are becoming increasingly popular and are an easy way to create a unique take on a classic look. Turn a floor into a beautiful feature using our patterned floor tiles, you can also achieve a rug effect through creating a centre pattern and framing it with a plain border. Create a statement wall in a bathroom using our patterned tiles through highlighting the shower area or a unique splashback for behind the basin. In Exeter we have many patterned tiles to choose from, ranging from patterned porcelain tiles, patterned ceramic tiles and patterned encaustic tiles. These patterned tiles come in a range of vibrant colours and patterns allowing you to bring your home to life. Our patterned tiles come from Spain and Italy.

Natural Stone Tiles

Natural StoneTiles is a product of nature, therefore variations in colour, pattern, texture and veining are all natural. These differences and variations in stone should be considered as the beauty of natural stone instead of flaws. Natural stone is a non-man-made product, all-natural material is straight from Mother Earth! There’s a variety of different natural stones, such as slate, granite, marble, limestone, travertine and sandstone. Natural stone materials are porous and require a sealant to help fill the pores and make the material resistant to water and stains, this will need to be reapplied periodically. Natural stone is also suitable for outdoor use. In our Exeter showroom our Natural stone comes from all around the world and includes places like Egypt, Spain, Brazil, China, France, Germany and India.

Outdoor Tiles

In Exeter we have a vast range of outdoor porcelain tiles which are available in various sizes and finishes. Choosing an outside tile depends on what substrate they are being laid upon, if using a concrete base then a 10mm porcelain outside tile can be used, if an alternative substrate is being used, such as sand and cement then a 20mm thick outdoor tile is best suited. Outdoor 20mm tiles can also be installed on pedestals (also known as stilts in the building trade), this 20mm tile collection is great for drainage and to be used on balconies or any areas that are prone to flooding. Outdoor tiling is very popular and much easier to maintain in comparison to decking. If you have an area where your living space or kitchen open onto your outdoor tiled area it is also possible to achieve a seamless, inside/outside look in using the same tile throughout both as a lot of our tiles come in both a 10mm and a 20mm. In Exeter we also have a range of Natural Stone Tiles which can be used for outdoor use if you would like a more classic look. Our outdoor tiles are also available in edging details such as swimming pool copings, skirting and step treads. Outdoor porcelain tiles are non-porous, fade-resistant and very durable. As porcelain is baked in fiery kilns, they won’t crack in extreme weather conditions like natural stone tiles can. Our vast range of outdoor tiles come from Italy and Spain.
