"Big tiles actually make a room look larger! Its an optical illusion, but smaller tiles, with a greater grid of grout lines draw a room in, while a larger area and fewer grout lines of larger tiles open the room out"

"We are a cash and carry retail operation and as such are not able to offer a tailored delivery service"

"Yes, you are able to bring back unused tiles but we do ask two things and both for the same reason:
1) The tiles are returned to us within 4 weeks of the date of purchase.
2) Full box quantities are returned.
The reason is that tiles are manufactured in batches, and each batch is given a shade or tone number. An out of date tone number or loose tiles without a tone number will not be re-saleable"

"You will need to to get a tiler to visit your home to assess the job, measure up and give you a quote. We have business cards of local tradesmen at all our showrooms so you can get competitive prices"

"We only close four days every year, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve and New Years Day. We are open every other day of the year"

"Tiles are discontinued because they have run their natural course and have stopped selling. Exciting new colours, textures, designs and glazes are continually being developed and introduced. As this happens demand for the older designs tend to tail off and factories no longer manufacture them"

"We don't buy stock from distributors but direct from the factories. Our tiles are imported from all over the world. The main stay is the Castellon area of North East Spain where over 200 factories are grouped in a small area. Italy is the other major European manufacturer again in the North East of the country near to Bolgna. Within the last twelve months we have imported tiles from Turkey, Germany, Bulgaria, China, Indonesia, Argentina and Brazil"

"Ceramic tiles are our core business but we also sell an exciting range of natural products from quarries such as stones in a variety of different formats. We can also offer you bathroom furniture, an unusual range of beautiful mirrors, bathroom accessories and we also stock professional tiling tools and finishing trims"

"Our 17 tonne lorry delivers to each showroom twice a week from our central distribution warehouse in Kirkcaldy"

"We stock a full range of tiling tools and accessories in each showroom. You will also find a comprehensive selection of finishing trims, both colour coordinated and metal"

"The best way to find out what size of trim you require is to offer up a tile to the trim. The rule of thumb is to choose a trim a couple of millimeters deeper than the thickness of the tile to allow for adhesive"

"We strongly recommend against painting over tiles, if you are looking for a quick freshen up then use grout cleaner. Alternatively look at tiling over with a new tile. You will be surprised how cheaply it can be done and in our opinion there really is no comparison"

"No you do not have to buy a full box, we sell by the tile and you may purchase exactly the quantity of tiles you require"

"Our pricing policy is simple. To make it as clear as possible for you to understand. All tiles are priced individually including VAT and a comparative sq am price is shown

We offer the best products at the best prices and it's easy to see that"

"Yes you can order from one showroom and collect from another. Ceramic Tile Warehouse are are Scotland's largest independent tile retailer, and are also a family owned and run business. We are delighted to accommodate every single customer in any way we can"

"We are delighted to offer you FREE of charge samples to take away and you can keep them as long as you like. If you wish to take a decorative border or motif tile there will be a charge, however, you can offset this against a purchase or we will give you a full refund on its return"

"Yes you can use tiles for a fire place. It would be wise to select a fully vitrified tile particularly on the hearth. You may find that the glaze cracks if you use a normal glassed wall tile "

"The mirrors on display in our showrooms are available to special order and delivery is three to four days. We offer an unusual and highly original range which certainly draw your attention. Designs and styles range from traditional to contemporary with the choice of lit, unlit and ultra modern L.E.D. mirrors"

"We do display and stock the same range of tiles in all our showrooms. However the showrooms are updated on a rotating basis, so if you cannot find what you are looking for ask the question. Our showroom managers are involved in the buying decisions and will have seen samples of many of the new ranges before they arrive in stock. So the chances are we will have what you are looking for in stock"
