Features & Benefits of High-Fired Terracotta Tiles

  • Enhanced Strength & Low Porosity: High firing gives these tiles dense, porcelain-like strength.

  • Slimmer Profile: The slender 3/8-inch thickness of these terracotta octagonal tiles reduces floor build-up height during installation projects.

  • Superior Moisture Resistance: Dense clay resists water penetration, making these tiles exceptionally easy to clean.

  • Vibrant Colour Retention: The high-temperature firing process locks in rich, permanent clay tones for generations.

Why Choose New Old-Stock Flooring?

New old-stock flooring delivers authentic historical design without suffering previous wear or structural damage. Because factory production ceased in 1996, these octagonal terracotta tiles offer an irreplaceable piece of British manufacturing heritage. Furthermore, buying existing unused stock prevents new industrial emissions while securing pristine vintage quality.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

  1. Prepare Subfloor: Ensure your subfloor stays completely clean, level, and dry before starting work.

  2. Dry Lay Pattern: Arrange your octagonal terracotta tiles alongside the black corner inserts to test your layout.

  3. Apply Adhesive: Spread tile adhesive evenly across the floor using a notched trowel.

  4. Position Tiles: Press each octagonal tile firm into place, inserting the small black squares into corner gaps.

  5. Grout and Seal: Apply suitable grout across all joints, then seal the fired clay surface securely.
