Natural Handmade Terracotta | Square 30 x 30cm | Country Cottage Chic

Transform your space into a rich russet oasis of yesteryear with these terracotta floor tiles. With these terracotta tiles, nostalgic red and orange pigments are revisited and redesigned for the modern and hardworking home. Take yourself to terracotta floor tiles heaven with this classic choice, sure to stun as kitchen floor tiles, hallway tiles and living room flooring, while emulating country cottage chic.

There's a big reason why this is one of the oldest architectural materials; durability. Made from natural clay and set in extreme temperatures, these terracotta tiles are incredibly hardwearing, (and so unlikely to chip) while also being low maintenance and easy to clean, once sealed.

Terracotta floor tiles are claimed to be the best flooring for underfloor heating. The porous nature of clay tiles allows heat to travel quickly and efficiently throughout your room and maintains heat long after your underfloor heating has turned off.  

Another bonus is the colour; terracotta's earthy tones bring warmth and a 'homely' feel to wherever you lay them. Rich reds and burnt oranges easily complement light coloured wall tiles, beige and many other  colour palettes, so you can enjoy the 'baked earth' charm for a lifetime.

Please note all order must be shipped via pallet delivery option (D) at checkout.

Sealing the Tiles: Terracotta tiles are generally more porous than most floor tiles so it is important to take care to seal the tiles fully. It is important for the correct products to be used when sealing, finishing and maintaining your tiles. The products we have selected have been specifically chosen to enhance, protect and maintain your tiles. You should expect the sealing process to darken both the tiles and grout. Please be aware that any deviation from our recommendations could affect the appearance, capabilities and longevity of your tiling. Preparation: Traditional sealing method (rustic, antique, matt finish) Prior to sealing the adhesive bed should be dry and cured and the grout joints clean, dry and free from adhesive residues, dirt, dust and other loose debris. The tiles must be dry and clean otherwise you may seal in dirt or moisture which will impair the final appearance. The process of sealing should be kept meticulously clean and all materials including brushes and cloths etc should be new and unused. The drying times recommended below may be altered by the actual site conditions (heat, humidity, ventilation etc). Please refer to the manufacturers’ guidelines on drying times for each product. Be led by your professional Installer. We recommends that traffic across a newly sealed floor is kept to a Minimum for the first week as sealants can take a few days to fully oxidize and may not be fully effective during this time. We recommend sealing Terracotta with 2-3 coating of boiled linseed oil and 1-2 coats of antique Wax. We recommend that a number of sample tiles are tested for porosity, which will give an indication of the amount of sealer the tiles will require. The tiles will readily absorb the first application of sealant and as a rough guide you should expect to use up to 75% of the sealant on the first application.)
