Anyone got a light-coloured porcelain tile patio?

If so, does it need cleaning a lot? We have concrete slabs and they look awful,. forever getting grubby and needing a jetwash - then a month later they're grey and dirtry again.

I've read that porcelain tiles stay much cleaner as they're not absorbent - but if you have light coloured ones, would you agree?

I don't have them but depending on where you live in the country, and presuming they're going in a sunny spot, be careful how light you go. They can be really bright and hurt your eyes.

Ours are grey but I have seen light coloured ones covered in mud within three days from children and dogs running from muddy grass areas onto the slabs 😟

We used to have one and it was dangerously slippy. Would avoid!

Lego, I dont suppose you know what slip rating your tiles are, do you? They're supposed to be very stable if they have a certain rating... so I'm wondering whether yours don't have a very high rating, or is it all nonsense and ALL of them are slippery!

I have pale porcelain, not slippery at all and don't seem to mark

These are lovely. What range are they? Looking for something similar

Hi, was this a question for me?
My tiles are called Italion Giallo porcelain, they're pretty widely available 🙂
