I'm interested in buying about 125 m2 of grey slate calibrated floor tiles from you.

I'm not yet sure, but would probably be looking at a 3 or 4 slate design.

Have you got any tiling patterns available so that i can order in the correct amounts?

Cheers

What trim is advisable around slate tiles?

I will be using Brazilian grey honed and multicolour riven. If none, how do we stop the adhesive from showing and how do we stop fluid ingress?

Hello Mrs Stone

Do you supply Brazilian Multicolour Riven Slate Tiles in pattern packs using different sizes for a random effect?

Thanks Paul

I have received some samples from you of the black and grey Brazilian paving slabs. I love the colour and surface feel of the grey slate and am very interested in this product. I have spent a lot of time researching and looking for stone for a patio project I am hoping to complete at home this summer and your Brazilian grey slate is the closest product I have seen that fits my requirements - natural stone product, uniform grey colour, smoothish surface finish.

How representative is the 10 x 10 cm sample of a whole paving slab? I was expecting a slightly riven surface whereas the sample I have received is completely smooth. If I ordered and paid for a larger sample would I see any difference in the surface?

If I travelled to you would I be able to see this paving laid out and over what area? Do you have this paving available to view anywhere closer to postcode area TN2? Can you give an indication of the delivery charges of 80 square metres of this product to TN2 (Brazilian grey slate - 600 x 290)? I look forward to hearing from you.

I have been told by my tiler that i can save on adhesive if we dot and dab to lay our tiles, will this be ok?

I recently ordered a sample of your Limestone tiles from which i based my order on, I have just had the tiles delivered and they don't look the same colour...have i been sent the wrong tiles?

Why have some of my Brazilian slate tiles been delivered with cement on?

The kitchen floor tiles in our new house have either not been sealed, or sealant has worn off.

They become dirty and marked very easily.

I have used a heavy duty steam cleaner- which helped- but it's not practical to use on a daily basis.

What would you advise?

I am looking at using your riven slate panel cladding on a structure outside (the outer building to a woodfire oven).

The structure will be made of 9mm WBP secured to frame work, I will stress there is no direct heat coming from the oven to this outer building.

From previous questions am i correct in thinking the wbp should be treated first with an acrylic followed by a bonding agent then the tiles applied using a flexible adhesive?

Can you recommend which brands for outside use?
