Good evening everyone
Has anyone had the joys of laying B&Q 600x600mm porcelain tiles?
After reading various threads on the random sizes of B&Q tiles, what is the best grout size for these tiles?
I feel like another lamb to the slaughter here, like so many others before me I have foolishly bought B & Q porcelain tiles for my kitchen, and also for my conservatory (still in the boxes).
Again I wrongly assumed they would be of a reasonable quality not realising that there are about 8...

For those interested, I gave up looking for this B&Q discontinued line of tiles, even by being very clever by contacting the spanish manufacturers ... no Joy, & B&Q were Zero help.

hi can any of you top tilers recommend a decent sealer for black marble tiles from b&q (customers choice not mine!!). i will be replacing the original floorboards with 18mm marine ply. i did think about hardibacker boards but it would have raised the level too high.

I'm about to have 20sqm of black B&Q polished porcelain tiles (600 x 600) put down. After everything I'd read about these I was bit sceptical but my wife insisted (and I couldn't argue with the price).
It seems that with all the reported problems with these tiles B&Q are trying to cover...
Hi everyone,

I will be removing the existing tiles...
hi people.
Just priced a job for a couple of weeks time. Using said tiles on 14m2 of floor.

Cheers.
