Important Note
Underfloor Heating: Our Quartz can be used with electric underfloor heating only up to 150 watts
NOT recommended: In areas subject to excessive heat ie behind a hob, or in a conservatory where the heat of the sun is greatly magnified as this can cause the colour pigment to fade
Fixing and maintenance
When fixing these tiles in place, we recommend using a low water content tile adhesive. Recommended adhesive Keraquick White Tile Adhesive and Latex Plus Additive.
As with any man made tile that is polished, microscopic pores can appear during the polishing process which can be susceptible to holding dirt or grout. Seal with LTP MPG sealer, both before and after grouting. When using coloured grouts it is always advisable to test a small area first. For everyday cleaning, we only recommend LTP Waxwash.

Q & A
Hey Mel, These tiles need to be cut with an angle grinder with a diamond blade rather than a wet cutter, as they are natural quartz. Kind Regards, Walls and Floors.
Hi Tony Thanks for your query. All prices on our retail site are displayed inclusive of VAT. Kind regards Walls and Floors
Hi Marie, We would recommend sealing these tiles with LTP MPG Tile Sealer ID 11270 to prevent staining and scratching of the tiles. Kind regards,
Hi Marie Polished finish tiles give better slip resistance when dry than most mat or textures tiles due to surface contact (footwear dependant). However they can become slippery when wet. Whilst they would be suitable for use in a kitchen, extra care should be taken after mopping or spillages until the areas is cleaned and dried. We would recommend obtaining a sample to test ensure you are happy with the texture before making your final decision. Regards Walls And Floors
Hi Joe, It is only the face that is polished. However with the correct tools, it is possible to manually polish the edges to the same finish. My suggestion would be a variable speed angle grinder capable of a slow speed (less than 3000 rpm) and a combination of diamond polishing pads ranging from 500 grit to start with, gradually going up to 1500-3000 grit to finish. Regards, Walls and Floors
Hi Sophie, These tiles contain specks of mirror, so these pieces have a silver hue. Yes, they're similar to the Blue Quartz Tiles. Kind regards, Walls and Floors
