FAQs

What is the recommended grout for these tiles?

Use a high-quality grout suitable for porcelain tiles. A flexible grout is recommended, especially if underfloor heating is installed. Consult with your tiler or the adhesive manufacturer for specific product recommendations.

Can these tiles be used in a wet room or shower area?

While the tiles have an anti-slip surface, they are primarily recommended for general indoor floor use. For wet room or shower areas, consult with a professional tiler to ensure appropriate waterproofing and slip-resistance standards are met.

How many tiles are in a pack?

Each pack contains 3 tiles.

What are the dimensions of each tile?

Each tile measures 600mm x 600mm (60cm x 60cm).

Are these tiles suitable for outdoor use?

No, these tiles are designed and recommended for interior floor applications only.

Do I need to seal these porcelain tiles?

Porcelain tiles are generally very dense and non-porous, meaning they do not typically require sealing. However, always check the specific grout manufacturer's recommendations for sealing grout lines.

What tools are needed for cutting these tiles?

Due to their porcelain nature, a wet saw with a diamond blade is generally recommended for precise and clean cuts. Standard tile cutters may not be sufficient.

Troubleshooting

Uneven tiles after installation

Ensure the subfloor was perfectly level before tiling. Check if excessive adhesive was used or if tiles were laid while the adhesive was too wet. Unevenly applied adhesive can cause tiles to appear uneven.

Grout lines are inconsistent

Verify that consistent tile spacers were used during installation. Check if tiles were shifted before the adhesive set. Ensure the rectified edges are aligned correctly during laying.

Tile surface appears dull after cleaning

Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning agents. Ensure all cleaning residue is thoroughly rinsed off with clean water. Use only recommended pH-neutral cleaners for porcelain tiles.

Chips or cracks appear on tiles

This can be due to impact from heavy objects or improper installation (e.g., insufficient subfloor support, incorrect adhesive coverage). Ensure heavy furniture has protective pads. Professional installation is recommended to avoid stress points.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, level, and structurally sound before installation. Use a suitable tile adhesive and grout recommended for porcelain tiles. Due to the rectified edges, maintain consistent grout lines as per the manufacturer's or tiler's recommendation. It is advised to use appropriate spacers.

Compatibility: This tile is designed for indoor floor use. It is compatible with underfloor heating systems if installed according to heating system manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the adhesive and grout are suitable for porcelain tiles and the specific environment.

Care: Clean regularly with a damp cloth or mop and a mild, pH-neutral detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the surface. For stubborn marks, use a specialized tile cleaner, following the product instructions. Promptly wipe up spills to prevent staining.
