The key to successful DIY installation when working with quartzite tiles is to make sure that everything is suitably prepared and readied. This means that substrates need to be mechanically robust, smooth and level, as well as free from any loose material and debris. The surfaces then need to be clean and dry to ensure correct adhesion before a suitable tile mortar or adhesive is applied and firm pressure is applied. If all of this sounds too much like hard work, hiring the services of a skilled local tiler will quickly and easily rectify the problem. 

Hiring an experienced professional will also give you the peace of mind that comes from knowing everything about your project will be completed to the highest possible standards. Marks from grouting will never be an issue, every tile will be flush and level, and all of the intricate cuts that may need to be made will be straight and smoothly executed.

YOU CAN USE QUARTZITE TILES TO CREATE A TIMELESS FINISHING TOUCH  

One of the beautiful things about quartzite tiles is that they have such a durable natural structure thanks to millions of years of being forged underground. This means that the surface will not scratch or chip while the colors will never stain or fade. The result is decor that appears timeless because it not only offers natural detailing that will never go out of style, but also because you can create inclusions that always look as good as new. 

As time goes by you may find that you update and replace other materials in your home, but the quartzite you buy today will stand proud for decades to come. It’s a material that has been shaped by the natural world, and one that will stand against anything life can throw at it. When you then combine this with the premium quality of our finishing, not to mention the unrivaled consistency of our sizing and detailing, you get a piece that will allow you to change how you think about decorating your home for a lifetime.

These types of rich and varied features only come along every once in a while, which is why when you see them, you need to claim them for yourself.
