Bct stands for British ceramic tile, they are a tile manufacturer producing budget tiles which seem to have a variation on sizes in each pack

I am now so confused --The brochure says ceramic and British made - the tiles say Turkey and porcelain and the website say British and porcelain and ok for floor. Are you saying that they are no good for a floor. And I am not sure what you mean when you say white biscuit, I am looking here...

Check the stock before you start! I had the same situation last year with this range. Topps advertise that they are made in Britain and are suitable for floors - both facts are not true. The tile they show is a white biscuit wall tile that they are selling like BCT tiles with soft glaze, totally...

What ever it is it is in poor condition...... 600x300 ceramic on floors is asking for trouble. Are the British Ceramic Tile by any chance? Any UFH?

British ceramic tile are about the worst tiles you can get !

...I've now hit 3 bad boxes in a row and will need to order more. I've almost finished a wall now so I can't change tiles now. They're British Ceramic Tiles, and after tiling I've heard that they're not very good. The defects I have vary from tiny scratches, to water spot type marks and...

Got to agree with you Tom. I wouldn't do it either. Why even do it with the customer's blessing, knowing that it will fail? Pointless exercise in my opinion. I have yet to see a BCT ceramic tile which I would be happy to install on any suspended floor. Didn't British used to mean "quality"...

I wouldn’t fix ceramic tiles over ufh, especially British ceramic tile. The layers you have said sound ok if that’s what they have on site.

Terrible tiling and , what look to be, terrible tiles. Are they British Ceramic tiles or B&Q or similar?

One day - if they keep practising, the Italians might get as good as these: HD Serpentine Grey Gloss Wall | British Ceramic Tile - https://www.britishceramictile.com/hd/grey-gloss-wall-bct04172 (...with complete and utter sarcasm - and shame for our ceramic "industry")

Thank you - ALL !!! So, it means I will have to suggest my customer to go with porcelain tiles than bct? What do you think about the floor tiles are they any good or are they also not to recommend ? He isn't short of money though I just think he liked the look though. What Victorian tiles...

Listen carefuly Ron, British ceramic tiles are nothing but trouble. They are made of chalk and icing sugar and will give you nothing but problems. The rep will fob you off as well. Victoria plum love selling rubbish so they're right up their street.

There are a few threads now........ =1"]Search Results for Query: British Ceramic - http://www.tilersforums.com/search/1724287/?q=British+Ceramic&o=date&c[title_only]=1 I will probably merge them when I get time!

Not sure how this post is relevant to Middlesex tiles and deserves a thread of its own ! But I do agree with your observation with ref to BCT.

Hi Rob Are you stocking British Ceramic tiles? I had a problem with them once and the rep was absolutely unhelpful, he couldn't even be bothered to meet me, I will happily name and shame him. I refuse to fit their tiles now and will walk away if I have to as I'm never short of work.

I'm chucking in an entry this month...... a bathroom I have just completed with dreaded British Ceramic Tiles!!!! Come on people, it can't get much worse than that!

Last lot of British ceramics I layed were more like chalk than ceramic. Very absorbant and sucks moisture out of adhesive way to quick so added more water than normal to mix and back buttering was essential

So... have a problem maybe some of you guys (and girls) might be able to help with. Laid a new floor in a bathroom. Tiles; British Ceramic Studio Conran Matt White 500 x 500 Hardiebacker 250 substrate; adhesive & mechanically screwed to new 22mm tongue & grove floor boards. LARSON Standard...

Not really a shading issue but a supply problem so interested how you'd handle this one Paul? I'm just on with a bathroom half the walls 14sqm in total are of 3 sizes of strips of slate, fixed with random groutlines. My customer ordered 5sqm of each size strip. We noticed last night at close of...

This is fine but I will bet my bottom dollar that when you supply tiles you don't explain to the customer that they should expect to pay an excess of £150-£250 for the installer to remove all tiles from boxes, lay out and check shading do you?
