Delivery

In-stock orders are dispatched within 3–5 working days, with express options available. Special-order and made-to-order ranges carry their own lead time, shown on the product page and confirmed when you order. Pallet, slab, large-format and bathware orders travel on a specialist off-load service — we confirm the timescale and book a date that suits you before dispatch.

Delivery is calculated at checkout from your order and postcode (we do not offer showroom collection) and UK delivery is free on orders over £1,000 on most ranges. For pallet deliveries please tell us about access issues in advance — low trees or bridges, narrow roads or gateways, gravel drives, or no turning or unloading space — as a re-delivery charge may apply if we cannot complete delivery.

When your order arrives

Please check your delivery as soon as it arrives. Once goods are unloaded they become the responsibility of the receiver, so if anything isn’t right, contact us within three working days and we’ll put it right quickly.

Returns

Unused, complete orders can be returned within 14 days of delivery; as tiles are picked and packed to your quantity, a restocking fee of 20–30% applies depending on the range. Special-order items are non-returnable unless damaged on delivery or faulty. Ordering a free sample first is the simplest way to avoid a return.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate how many Original Style Half Tiles I need?

Because each rectangular half tile measures 15x7.5cm, you will need exactly 88 pieces to cover one square metre. Simply calculate your total required square meterage (adding an additional 10% for cuts and natural wastage), and multiply by 88 to find out how many pieces you need to order.

What is the style of the Melford Half Tile?

This elegant rectangular tile shape offers a highly versatile foundation for any room. Finished in a beautifully rich, glossy 'Melford' glaze, it possesses a subtly undulating surface that beautifully captures the softly aged look of authentic, handcrafted Artisan tiles. They look fantastic whether installed in a classic straight stack, a traditional brick-bond layout, or a striking herringbone pattern.

Are these ceramic tiles suitable for bathrooms and showers?

Yes. These premium ceramic tiles are highly durable and fully suitable for internal wet and dry wall areas, including bathroom walls, shower enclosures, and kitchen splashbacks. The high-quality glazed surface naturally repels moisture, making them exceptionally practical for everyday use.

Do I need to seal Original Style ceramic half tiles before grouting?

No. Unlike natural stone or porous terracotta, the glossy fired glaze on these ceramic tiles does not require any sealing prior to grouting or during everyday maintenance. The surface is highly resilient and naturally protects against moisture and stains. Simply wipe them clean with warm water and a non-abrasive cloth.

Installation & Care Tips

Installation & care

  • Adhesive & Grout: Use a high-quality tile adhesive and grout suitable for ceramic wall tiles. A narrow grout joint is often recommended to beautifully maintain the flow of the tiles.
  • Layout Options: These perfectly proportioned rectangular tiles can be installed in a traditional straight stack for a contemporary feel, offset in a brick-bond pattern for a classic aesthetic, or arranged in a herringbone layout for a striking feature.
  • Cleaning: Maintain the beautiful glazed finish easily with warm water and a soft cloth; strictly avoid abrasive pads or harsh acidic chemicals that could scratch or dull the surface. Sealing is not necessary.
