I put in tiles for my living, dining area and store room.
Total area 587.5 sq ft.
I bought Feruni Garnet YE04NN 60x60cm tiles at RM11.99 each from Feruni directly at one of the HomeDec or some other show at PWTC.
184 tiles = RM2,286.16 (RM80 is for delivery). Inclusive of side skirting. Still have a few tiles left over for spare.
Experienced installer is really a must. They laid it all out with very narrow gaps and looks really nice.
At the end of the day, no more money for marble flooring. haha. My feet can feel the difference though; as phoenix69 said, marble has the cooling effect. Tiles are not so cooling.

QUOTE(orientaliew @ Jul 16 2012, 04:37 PM) your Feruni tiles very cheap, cause i remember one of the tiles with the grain of travertine priced at more than $40 a piece and its looks exactly like Iranian beige marble. how much the installation cost you? It was all lumped in by my wet works contractor. He charged me RM6000 for all tiling works downstairs including one small bathroom, dry and wet kitchen floors and full height walls, and all living room, dining area and small store room floor. 890 sq ft floor area and 828 sq ft of wall area. I also have no idea if that's expensive or cheap. Overall, my contractor's price was 24% cheaper than the other quotation I got, plus my other family members have used him before and he's always the reliable guy. Indeed, he was very reliable and still comes around to help me drill holes in the wall and help clear a bird's nest in my roof when I called him. I've already paid him in full in April, yet he still comes around to help.
