External entrance Victorian Tiles with steps

Post by Peg power »

what the topic states really. I have about 8 steps down from street level then a walkway approx. 12m x 1m to my front door, as the house is Victorian, I am looking for the black and white pattern Victorian style tiles, three thin border style, black/white/black then the chequered/diamond within, being external and steps I thinking about anti-slip etc, so the steps will need extra grip, and the walk way an element of that also, most is under cover I should add and only the stairs and 2m are not covered. I have found some tiles online and they are super expensive, and the stle we like are not really black and white but more a matt grey and cream, can anyone recommend a tile supplier that may be able to supply what I need at a reasonable cost??

Any advice help appreciated, I have added a picture of the style, but in black and white.

I've used these before

they have a list of suppliers on their website, nice tiles & a great selection but they weren't cheap really.

originalstyle.com have a massive selection of victorian tiles but they are well expensive. small tiles like them are always expensive if any good. the cheaper ones coul be thin and fragile.

its risky having smooth tiles on stair treads even if there's a handrail

all outside tiles need solid bedding
