    Laura Ashley Mr Jones floor tiles discolouring after being laid

    Porcelain floor tiles don't seem fit for purpose

    I'm with impish on this one. Agree, british ceramics, whether it be from bct or johnsons aren't much cop. But full bodied or double charged porcelain (which those tiles look to be) , are far superior quality regardless of who makes or supplies it. They look to have take a fair whack from...
