Roca Tile Marble Dolomita White Ceramic 12" x 24"

Roca Tile's Marble Dolomita White is a 12" x 24" glazed ceramic tile, made in Spain and 9 mm thick. Roca Marble Dolomita White is for a backsplash, a shower surround or a feature wall. It solves the wall problem a floor tile does not: it is lighter, cuts more cleanly around an outlet, and costs less per square foot than putting a floor tile up a wall. The trade-off with any glazed tile is that the colour sits on the surface rather than running through the body, so a deep chip shows the biscuit underneath. The edges are rectified, cut square after firing, which lets a tiler close the joint to about an eighth of an inch. It also means the substrate has to be flat, because a tight joint leaves nowhere to hide a dip. Most people pair it with a porcelain floor tile from the same collection, so the room runs one tone from the floor up the wall, and with a matching or contrasting grout depending on whether you want the pattern to read. A box of Marble Dolomita White tile holds 2 pieces and covers 13.56 square feet. Order the area you are covering plus about ten per cent for cuts and breakage.
