Default Wood look tile flooring

Hey guys,

Trying to find some tiles that have a timber grain with a dark colour similar to jarrah.

Any suggestions as where to go?

Cool will look at those places. Most have light colour styles.

We have vinal floor planks, come in dark colours, very hard wearing, fools everyone when the see it, as they think its real timber. No gaps/grout and was about $50 per m laid.

If you're trying to match existing tiles by any chance, try the Tile Library in Osborne Park, they stock heaps of obsolete tiles for repairs, small jobs etc.

Hmm, if your trying to match existing tiles, fair enough, if not, don't poo poo the idea because something from the 80s, ie vinal is still the same. The product is glued direct to the slab, do no drumming or hollow sound from floating timber floors.

We had a slow combustion fire installed on top of it. Moved furniture on it with no scratches or scuffs to be seen.

No grout gaps, and each plank is about 1m long and 150mm wide. Easy to replace if one is damaged.

We also had a 2m diameter 16 point star with 4 different timber looks, laser cut, in the entry, something you couldn't do in tiles.

We did look at what was available in timber look floor tiles for our new home. After having tiles in the passages of our old home, the vinal planks were more realistic, harder wearing thinner, cheaper and easier to fit, many more options for looks, no grout gaps.

We also had a games room that had vinal look timber parketry floor, and it looked very 80s and cheap in the old house. This new stuff should cost just below ceramics, its that good.

And yes it does have a textured feel that tiles have and lino doesn't.
