Are you hear Feruni tile before? Yesterday i seen Houz Depot have selling 60cm x 60cm selling RM26 per piece.
QUOTE(sovietmah @ Jun 4 2013, 05:18 PM) Black one maybe u have to refer to china tiles, so far my contractor let me choose MY tiles, black one all i dun really like. But i choose grey for my wet kitchen concrete top MML 60cm x 60cm homo tiles. Light grey Alpha tiles 30cm x 60cm for my wet kitchen flooring W53011 White 25cm x 33cm Alsinea (same like my bathroom one) (With very lighter grey stripe) for my wet kitchen wall tiles = The rest of wall tiles W53006D Dark grey 25cm x 33cm Alsinea (same like my bathroom one) (With very darker grey stripe) for my wet kitchen wall tiles = Hood and Hob area only. bout 500mm wide. so after done, it should be looks like somethg like this. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wwG4Axult4Y/T5eu...00/DSC_0608.jpg But of course i am not using very small mozaic, but it is a 25cm x 33cm dark grey tiles (same like my bathroom one) And then i bought the silver color Fotile hood, and then dark black glass Fotile Hob 3 burner from builders hardware. So silver hood match bit with the dark grey wall tiles, lighter grey concrete tiles match with black hob, should looks cool hopefully. Code refer here http://whitehorseceramic.com.au/alsinea-wall-floor.html White Horse tiles pattern quite OK, but each tiles got different length, could be 1-2mm differences. If you want very accurate length, maybe got to refer to italian brand. |

Are we allow to check the tiles before purchase?
QUOTE(weikee @ Jun 6 2013, 02:32 PM) If you get grade 2, lower grade or some term is Grade B it may have one or more defective e.g. - Some area of the tiles surface are bloated / pregnant - Tiles wrap - Tiles are not cut symmetrical, you notice some are offset in one angle - color inconsistence even in the same batch. - Size inconsistence, even same box some can be bigger than other. Basically these are manufacturing defective. |

Thanks your advise. I think contractor should know how to do.
QUOTE(sovietmah @ Jun 7 2013, 10:53 AM) No way to check before u purchase. Same like when you are buying printer cartridge, buy first, try, problem then exchange. You mostly can check after purchase, and refund those tiles that got major defects. For corner break tiles you can utilize it to do skirting and cut into minor piece for cornering part. |

Oh! sorry about that. Now i know roof opening.
QUOTE(weikee @ Jun 14 2013, 04:31 PM) This one is roof opening, your ealier description make it like floor "hole", which usually are drain access. What is the below access? If no one will be walking on the top, don't need concrete slab. Glass will be nice, but expensive, pros is less noisy and won't fade. Poly will fade and noisy. A forumer here mention about better quality poly + thicker that will not fade and quiet as glass but I am not sure, you have to search and ask the person. |
