Thanks I have a family contact in CTD may help getting porcenalosa stuff cheaper:drool5:
They wont stock/get tiles available at Porcelanosa showrooms - only small range available - Porcelanosa give a trade discount.
 
porcelanos for me too. i do like v+b too but been having a few issues with them lately!
the last time I used V and B I had a real battle with them, I was doing 8 apartments (starting price £450,000!) and even my TX700 struggled to snap them straight, they were like iron. The site agent even got the V and B technical fella out to asses the problem and see if there was anything I wasn't doing right to cut them. I showed him and he took me to one side and said "they are the toughest tiles on the market, you're doing nothing wrong, but you need to cut two tiles to hopefully get a straight one":yikes: This was the "Fire and Ice" range iirc. I got a 22mm cutting wheel from TT and that helped a lot and cut down on the wastage.
 
i thought porcelanosa would come out on top, i used to work for a company from wakefield he was one of them main stockist for crespania tiles , a cheap copy of porcelanosa all though he sold them at roughly the same price as porces tiles
 
I guess we like them principally as most of the medium / high end of their Porcelain Tiles including the Stonker Range (seriously hard !) are all rectified after firing and hence they are absolutely spot on for size.
