The best tile shop I've used is CONTINENTAL TILE SPECIALISTS in Kirkintilloch-about 10 miles north of Glasgow.They deal with a company called ROCERSA and their tiles are top quality to use.Prices are also fab,some of the tiles are in TOPPS also,but C.T.S prices are far less and if you are a tiler,they'll give you a 30% discount.

reaper72,kirkintilloch is not a big place so i must have spoke to you before as i get my gear from CONTINENTAL TILES ,where big ANDY and BOBBY are a great help.I have sent you a PM so hope you reply.

Always think long term please.If you choose the discount route(TILE FOR NOW),remember the "here today,gone tomorrow shops"will give you no after service,no trouble shooting,and no back up.If you have a problem with a Topps store,please PM GAZ.With nearly 300 stores nationwide,if we cant get it or match it,then who can?

If you're referring to CONTINENTAL TILES,Gaz,Andy has been in the tile industry a very long time and when it comes to knowledge or help,would be seriously challenged.....Sometimes smaller retailers are worth their weight in gold.....

Wasn't referring to any company in particular reaper.Obviously they aren't 'a here today gone tomorrow firm'.My point being,please just exercise caution when dealing with new small independants.If your customer wants what they have,make sure you allow enough tiles for spares,many solo importers will get deals abroad,the tiles can be available for very short periods,and never to be seen again!Time and time again people tell me that they bought from such and such a tile firm or especially B&Q(huge culprits for this),the tiler did the job a couple of months later,and were short of a dozen tiles,could the get any more NO!!! oh well back to the drawing board then.Please ask Andy from continental to join our happy forum,it is lonely being the only retailer tag on here :cry_smile::wink_smile:
