How Many Of You, Use Topps Tiles?

[StevieBoy]

As per title really, I would be interested to know who uses Topps for their materials, why and which products in particular if you do.

Personally, I don't go anywhere else as where I am based suppliers of adhesive etc are very limited.
I use their slow set addy a lot, always use BAL grouts and very rarely of at all have any issues.

To expensive, staff give wrong or bad advice with poor product knowledge, so NO don't use them.

 

[Dave]

Easy answer , NO!!!

 

[Spud]

They do have some lovely tiles despite their adhesives being quite expensive

There trade discount is not very good on the tiles, or is just me who can't get much?

 

[Dalef]

I can get 15% off tiles at tops with trade discount if that answers your question

There trade discount is not very good on the tiles, or is just me who can't get much?

 

[J Sid]

Yes, shocking.....
Min 30% at CTD and can sometimes haggle some more.

Think I'll change lol nevertheless always good to have you never know

Interesting reading. I don't get into supplying tiles, never have but yes I agree they don't offer much discount on them.

On trade I didn't think their adhesive prices are too bad.
A 20kg bag of grey slow set for about £8 or £12 for the white, and any split bags £5

The pre-mix stuff in tubs I agree is pricey, but I don't use it anyway.

The BAL White microflex grout is pricey, but is a good product I think and finishes off really well.

Will be interesting to see other people's opinions over the next week or so.

Topps are rubbish.

All of the above and then some. I used to use them a few years back but only because they handed my cards out.

I'm almost religiously CTD now.
