Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Jan 18, 2014 4:48 pm Hi there, We have just had our floor tiles laid (living and hall ways) and really dislike them. Think we are going to have to have them changed but not sure what our options are? It is about 60sqm porcelain (not gloss). I'm at the point where I really hate them, so disappointing!
