Hope this is in the right place.
I have been to look at a floor where the house has had subsidence a part of the slab the tiles are on has dropped by 2inches and it has been underpinned etc. I want to try and match the tiles that are there.
anyone recognise them?

what are they
what are they made off
where can i get reclaimed ones from
or can i get good copies etc.

They are a matt black and matt white the white ones are slightly off white i cleaned the area off the tiles that i took a picture off to show a better colour.
The black ones have a gold fleck in them maybe iron pyrite in the tile.

the house as built in 1930 and according to the owner he thinks it was tiled 1930-1940 somewhere in that region,

The tile sizes would have been in inches but i only have a mm tape when i got there so the size's in mm is 108mmx108mm square and 10mm thick.

Hiya, been looking at your pictures. they look like a dry pressed ceramic geometric tile. You'd be very lucky to to find the exact tile even from a reclaim yard. Some times it can be worth asking the neighbours, you never know!!

But I can get you something simliar. Sizes I can get are: 106 x 106mm x 9mm thick available in black and white, the white being an off white. The black is a plain without any flecs. They are both of a matt finish and if using indoors it is recommended they are sealed.



Hope this have been of use! Good luck!
