Can anyone recommend a company? Tried porcelain superstore, but they haven't been very good with their samples so far.

Tried walls and floors but still waiting on samples from them.

Visited tops tiles in person but seems like quite a small selection and didn't find what we liked.

Any other companies I should be trying?
We are just trying to narrow down if we go with a crackle glaze Metro tile or a modern Metro tile with a reversed border detail

I have found walls and floors very good and cheap in the past so good luck with the samples. Topps Tiles seem to be pretty overpriced to me. If you're interested in some fancier stuff, Fired Earth has some beautiful tiles.

I can definitely recommend Tons of Tiles and if you search on here you'll see lots of other people doing the same thing. They're online but send samples very swiftly. They have a great range of metro tiles and their white mini metro are the same ones that Fired Earth stock(ed) - from the same factory in Spain. I read that on a thread on here, ordered samples from both companies and they were exactly the same but Tons of Tiles were ££££ cheaper.

My other favourite tile company is Mandarin Stone. Gorgeous tiles and amazing quality but a bit pricier!

I have used Walls and Floors twice and would definitely recommend them. They added more tiles allowing for breakage with the first order, so I didn't even have to query a couple that chipped, and with the second order none were damaged. Really good value compared to Homebase et all.

I can second Tons of Tiles. I ordered 10 samples last Friday and they arrived on Monday. I then had an email saying they would post out more samples free of charge if non were suitable.
