Quarry Tiles

Quarry tiles are versatile building materials used for a variety of purposes due to their durability and low water absorption. They are usually 12mm to 19 mm thick and are manufactured using the extrusion process from natural shales or clay. Quarry tiles are made from clay in a manner similar to the manufacture of bricks.

Quarry tiles can be used for fireplaces, hearths, internal flooring, outdoor flooring  and are also perfect for use with underfloor heating. We recommend applying a sealant to avoid staining in high traffic areas. 

PLEASE NOTE: Our quarry tiles are crafted using traditional firing techniques to create an authentic rustic appearance. As a result, slight variations in shade and size may occur across each batch, enhancing the unique character of your space. To achieve your desired look, we recommend laying out the tiles before installation to mix, match, and rotate them for the best effect.

Please note all quarry tiles have a maximum tolerance of +/- 2mm. Also note that due to the rustic handmade nature of the product, the manufacturer recommends a minimum 7mm grout joint.
