Best pricing for tiles comes during sale. whichever the company. Merdeka and year end sale usually the best for tiles, but most tile companies schedule sale to coincide with major celebration like CNY and Hari Raya. But have to get what is on sale, usually clearance items.

Even companies like Niro/Creative labs can have some of their spanish-made tiles at 75% off sometimes.

Some batches like project extras also under clearance most of time.

Or weird/unpopular sizes like 1000x1000mm, 900x900mm, 750x750mm etc are usually on sale clearance.

But one advise is to get the best tile you can afford, as nowadays the cost of tiling is usually more expensive than the tiles itself.

I bought my tiles recently from Kajang ordinary tiles shop and some at Super ceramic branch in Balakong.
I would say Super ceramic got more choices and affordable. Compare few shops first before buying...I bought most from the ordinary shop then only found SC later, regret only bought some from SC after that.
Of course SC tiles mostly from China, quality wise can't tell but is affordable.
Remember to ask for Grade A tiles.

Looking for small size glazed tiles for kitchen backsplash. Can’t seem to find many options on the web. Whitehorse and Terracotta have a few, but most brands I come across are large sizes, 1 x 2 and bigger. Is this the trend? I still prefer small sizes.

Any suggestions for a wider selection choice, especially decorative design type?

Hi all, I'm doing repair works for my house. Currently replacing hollow tiles as they've popped out. However after replacement it seems to affect other tiles on the edges. Is there any way to prevent the re-tiling to affect more tiles? At the rate it's going I'm concerned I might just have to replace the whole floor which is a major work.

Hi all - I went to Niro Ceramic Premium Factory Outlet in Shah Alam last week.

Learned that they have 2 grades for their tiles - the full price ones, and 2nd grade. Both can be the same model but price difference can be quite significant (30-50%)

Want to ask: Anyone here have experience with the Niro 2nd Grade tiles? Can pakai? or better don't touch?

2nd grade tiles usually have inconsistent sizes , thus your tile gaps will vary
