Topps Tiles Approved Fitter Service

[PeterB101]

Hi, Has anyone any experience of this service offered by Topps Tiles (positive or negative).
Are Topps Tiles effectively offering a "supply and fit" contract or just putting you in touch with a contractor (who they believe to be a competent tiler, but have no responsibilty thereafter for the quality of the contractors work or performance)?
The service they are offering is advertised on their website at

Thanks, in advance, for any feed back.

Thanks for all the feedback to date...................... I phoned a couple of branches and seemed to get conflicting information varying from "we sort everything out, and its all guranteed by us. no problem...." to "we put you in touch with a contractor agree a fitting price and you deal with him directly" ............ Im just trying to home in on exactly what service TT are offering......... any Topps approved fitters out their who know the score? or TT employees & how do you qualify to be a Topps approved fitter?

The bottom line is that Topps want to charge you an "over the top" price for your adhesive and grout. They'll put you in touch with one of their "approved" (YEAH RIGHT) tilers who will not tell you that you have been charged well over the top for your materials and you'll get tucked up! That's not to say that the tiler will not be any good, as most are top quality but you will pay over the top for your materials (I guarantee!).

personally I wouldn't contemplate being a Topps Tiler, far better imo, to be able to say what is right/wrong and not follow a party line
