Looking for tiles

Hi
I don't know if this is the right place but I hope someone can help me.

I am trying to find some mosaic effect tiles which used to be sold by B&Q but were discontinued about 3 years ago.

They are 20cms x 20cms beige mosaic effect tiles with 8 rows of 8 squares indented upon them.

I need enough to cover 1 sq.mtr. if anyone has any lurking in their loft or shed. I would post a picture but don't know how.

Thanks.

    Unless you know the make/line you are going to struggle (and forum rules might prevent your transacting with someone on here - might be wrong - re your intention and/or the rules)!

    I tracked down some discontinued tiles once but my starting point was make and model, so to speak. They were reclaimed off a display and were a near perfect match, so it can be done.

    Good luck with your quest.

    Oh, sorry. I didn't think about that. Thank you for pointing it out.

    You will almost certainly be out of luck on that one. Without the name of the factory and the usual range name (you can be certain that B&Q would have sold it under another name to the original), you have virtually no chance.

    All is not lost. There is a company called Dominion Tiles in North London who buy all the end of ranges from a load of manufacturers and sit on them until people like you need a few. They will need a piece of ean existing tile so you may have to damage one getting it off the wall.

    I've used on them on a few occassions and they have been very good.

    Their Number is 020 8344 7070.

    Before the anti spam brigade start pressing the buton, I am nothing to do with Dominion Tiles.
