Important Information – Installation, Storage & Sealing
Tile Installation
Our handmade terracotta tiles have natural variations in colour, texture and surface finish. For easier cleaning and maintenance, we recommend installing the smoother side of each tile facing upwards, unless you prefer a more traditional, rustic appearance.
Please inspect all tiles carefully before installation and mix tiles from different boxes to achieve a natural blend of colours and tones.
Storage & Handling
Tile boxes must always be stacked upright on their edges rather than laid flat. This helps reduce the risk of damage and breakages during storage and handling.
Sealing Guidance
Our sealing recommendations are provided as guidance only. As terracotta is a natural handmade product, the final appearance may vary depending on the tile’s porosity, the sealing products used and the application method.
We strongly recommend testing your chosen sealing method on spare, uninstalled tiles before treating the entire floor. This allows you to achieve your preferred finish and ensure you are happy with the final colour and appearance.
Always follow the sealing manufacturer’s instructions and seek advice from your professional installer.
