My partner and I are in a disagreement. So i would like opinions!!
These are our feature tiles for bathrooms ( pics below- bluestone)
our floor and wall tile are the creamy mocha colour.
going to keep the natural look of the bluestone (for now) i like the darker glossy look with the sealer that we can do after tiles are in if we dont like the natural look.
What do you all think white grout or black grout. This was the look i was after but he likes the white in between the tiles
Feature bluestone tile

Creamy mocha wall and floor tile

The look i wanted

He likes the more light natural style with the white
this is the best photo to show white and black grout.
Our tiles are 300x600
What do you all think?? I need to tell the tiler by tuesday ahh


I should also say that the stone will only be on our ensuite dwarf wall with the mirror and vanity and one wall woth the window and over the bath in our main bathroom


It all depends if you want the tile to pop with the grout
personally id go a dark grout of a few shades lighter as opposed to white with it as i think dark with white grout at times can look a little tacky

I think we have decided a gunmetal grey/ granite colour
will hopefully have this effect. Ah and the anxiousness kicks in

I agree with the dark grout option. Will look great!!

Dark ground in my opinion. Are they natural bluestone? I thought you had to seal front back and sides before it was laid... That's why I didn't do it. Having said that you can get sealers that's don't Change the appearance of you wanted to maintain that look

^^^^ me too but it may of only been if the tile was going to get wet i cant remember what the beaumonts lady told me
as we looked at a very similar tile

Natural. They were sealed today with a sealer that gives a natural look. Tiler said afterward we can go over them if we desire the darker gloss look

I think we need to seal our ensuite tile it's getting water marks it looks similar to those tiles


Has anyone upgraded to the Raven Ceaserstone? If yes do you know what the cost was?

And if you have a photo you can show of the finished product that would be fantastic!

Ok so I just got out of hospital and went to look through the windows of the house because the floors were meant to have started... Yay!
Well got there and not so yay..: they are laying the wrong floor boards!

Can someone please send me a picture of the part in their colour selection paperwork where it says about what floor boards you have chosen?
