White Porcelain tiles for kitchen - where to buy from?

[fimac]

Hi I have been recommended this site for some advice on which Porcelain tiles to buy for our new kitchen. It is a white high gloss finish and would like to source some white high gloss floor tiles, porcelain, to go with it. The rest of the house renovation we are using porcelanosa, but when they showed us their white porcelain tile, its quite a cream colour.

Looking for advice thanks!

Thanks for the quick responses! we are looking for a good quality one as we are fitting underfloor heating and don't want to be lifting it anytime soon, which would be a hard wearing one?, the last one (presealed?)

I have found this company via google

Polished Porcelain floor and wall tiles

Has anyone used them? They have a polar white porcelain which looks very nice on their webpage

hi the nano supers are decent quality

Be very careful where you buy white polished tiles from. Some can stain - even after following the word from the manufacturers. Avoid Topps tiles and Al Murad as they give little or no advice and generally stock low-grade. Prepare to pay £40+/sq/m for good quality.

cheers for the tip people

Most are pre-sealed though, but need stripping and re-sealing. Is this a permanent seal?

It is not a pre-seal, just simply a transit wax..

 

[TheTiler]

So it basically protects against rubbing and scratching of tiles in transit and makes them look good to buy? This can be mis-leading for buyers as they must factor in the cost of stripping and sealing prior to fixing...
