Midgley West Quarzi Frammenti Tirol Tile 6"x48" - Lappato

Quarzi Frammenti Tirol, 6" x 48", makes a small room look bigger, mostly because there is so little grout breaking up the surface. The lappato finish is part polished, part matte, which gives you some shine without the full slip of a polish. The low absorption is the reason porcelain ends up in wet rooms and entries. It takes water, salt and grit without complaint. The colours in this line are not all rated the same: PEI runs 4 to 5 across them, so check the rating on the one you are actually buying before it goes anywhere busy. A box holds 12 sq ft, so a 100 sq ft floor works out at 10 boxes once you add the usual ten percent for cuts and the odd broken piece. Come and see it in Mississauga or Barrie. Tile rarely looks the same in a store as it does on a phone screen.
