Slate Kitchen Floor Tiles and Wall Cladding
Slate stone is a fine-grained, foliated metamorphic rock that is created by the alteration of shale or mudstone by low-grade regional metamorphism. It is popular for a wide variety of uses such as roofing, flooring, and flagging because of its durability and attractive appearance.
Slate is also stain resistant, heat resistant and anti-bacterial, which makes it an excellent natural stone countertop option.
The Natural Slate stones are almost non-porous, inorganic, and resistant material to support the growth of weeds, molds, and mildews. Temperature extremity, the wind blows, and heavy rains hardly leave any wear & tear impacts on slate stones. Slate is also stain resistant, heat resistant and anti-bacterial, which makes it an excellent natural stone countertop option.

Q1. How many defective tiles should I expect in my order?
A. It’s not unusual to have up to 5% of a slate tile order defective to some degree (e.g. chipped edges, cracked tiles, flacking, bowing etc.). Industry standards consider any amount up to 10% acceptable. These defective tiles can be used for cuts you will need to make during installation.
Q2. How wide should my grout joints be?
A. It’s a matter of personal taste, but traditionally, slate tile is installed with wide grout joints to compensate for thickness variation. A 3/8” to ½” grout line is recommended, depending on the format size.
Q2. Do I need to seal slate?
A. Slate is porous and can become stained. It is recommended to use a sealant so that stains can be easily extracted.
