limestone

Limestone is one of the most beautiful natural stones used for Limestone Floor Tiles; they are created from a variety of limestones from all over the world, yet we often overlook the amazing limestone formations right in our own backyard. The following are the three most common limestone types found in and around the United Kingdom:1. Limestone from the Cretaceous period, 65-145 million years oldThe North and South Downs, for example, are chalks that dominate much of South East England. Chalk is a porous white fine-grained rock made up of the petrified remnants of marine creatures. Chalk is too soft to be utilised for limestone floor tiles or other construction uses, but it is widely employed in the cement manufacturing process. Many bands of Flint can also be found throughout the rock formations. The white cliffs of Dover are home to some of the most well-known chalk formations in the area.2. Limestone from the Jurassic Period (196-145 million years old)With a pale brown colour, this limestone is also known as "honey" or "Golden" limestone and may be found in and around the Cotswolds. They're significantly softer and porous than Carboniferous Limestone, and they're found in thick Limestone strata. These are useful as building stones, particularly in the Cotswolds, and are well-formed enough to be utilised as freestones. They aren't normally robust enough for industrial building, but they are frequently pure and strong enough for Limestone Tiles.3. Limestone from the Carboniferous Period (299-359 million years old)This is a solid, hard limestone rock with a low porosity that is found mostly in thick beds. Era of the Carboniferous Limestones feature visible vertical joints and can readily be splintered into blocks for use as building stone, limestone floor tiles, and limestone flooring. The Peak District, Mendip Hills, and Yorkshire Dales are all rich in carboniferous limestone. The majority of potholes and natural cave systems in the United Kingdom are found in these Carboniferous limestone environments. Carboniferous limestone is either a fine calcite mud precipitated from warm shallow seas or a shelly limestone created by coral and marine life pieces. It is an extremely hard rock that is usually used for Limestone flooring and Limestone tiles, but it may also be utilised for cement manufacturing and as a source of calcium carbonate for the chemical industry because it is often quite pure.

porcelain paving

porcelain paving is derived from the Old Italian term "porcellana," which means "little pig" and is a nickname for cowrie shells (because the craft resembles its surface). Porcelain pottery is white (though it can be tinted artificially), translucent, vitreous, and thermal shock resistant. Vases, dishes, kitchen utensils, and a variety of other ornamental things are common examples. Porcelain is also a good insulator, which is why fake teeth are made of it.China is the birthplace of porcelain ceramics. In English-speaking countries, porcelain is referred to as "china." The first specimens were discovered in the 6th century. The art of creating porcelain ceramics had developed by the 16th century BC (during the Shang dynasty, which ruled from the 17th to the 11th century BC). Porcelain was also noted by Marco Polo in his accounts from the 13th century.Kaolin (a type of decomposed granite), petunse (china clay), and feldspar are used to make porcelain paving (china stone). This mixture is fired to a temperature of 1200°F, then glazed and heated again. When it comes to porcelain, extreme caution is required. Impurities in the clay, for example, may result in a brownish or reddish product instead of pure white. Hard paste porcelain, soft paste porcelain, and bone china are the three types of porcelain ceramics.The temperature at which hard paste porcelain is fired is higher than that at which soft paste porcelain is fired. The higher the temperature at which it is fired, the harder the feldspar glaze becomes. Fifty percent china clay, thirty percent china stone or feldspar, and twenty percent flint make up hard paste porcelain. It has a transparent appearance. Between 900â,,? and 1000â,,? is the starting firing temperature for hard paste porcelain. For the second firing, the temperature should be between 1350â,,? and 1400â,,?Enamel colours melt over a thick, clear coating on soft paste porcelain. Glass and feldspar are among the constituents. Hard paste porcelain is fired at a lower temperature than soft paste porcelain. This type of porcelain pottery was also made in France during the 17th century and was known as "pate tendre."The most durable of the three types is bone china. Animal bones have been added to it, giving it an ivory white tint and excellent translucency. It's also less difficult to make than hard paste porcelain. Josiah Stone invented this type of porcelain about 1800.Porcelain ceramics arrived in Europe via trade, spreading to England, the Netherlands, and Germany, among other places. European countries were able to come up with new kinds of wares either through experiments with porcelain or in response to market demands for porcelain: England came up with creamware, pearlware, Meissen ware, and parian pottery; the Netherlands came up with delft pottery; and France came up with flambe and pate-sur-pate. Porcelain's development paved the way for a plethora of other types of ceramics.

wood effect tiles

A low-cost laminate floor is the cheapest alternative. The most cost-effective mounting board is a thin, non-water-resistant board with no grooved edges. It's a great alternative for individuals on a budget, such as a landlord renovating a rental property or someone looking for a quick and inexpensive way to clean up a shed or garage.Wood effect tiles have a noticeable price advantage as you move up the price scale. The selling price of engineered or solid wood flooring is determined by the manufacturing expenses associated with the particular species of wood. A rare species will fetch a significantly greater price than ordinary native types. When compared to locally milled oak or birch, walnut from Brazil or cypress from Australia will normally be on the pricier end of the scale.Any of these woods, exotic or otherwise, can be replicated by a tile manufacturing without affecting the price. All of the qualities of actual planks can be accurately recreated for a fraction of the price of the real thing. When you consider that it costs no more to make a wider plank in ceramic than it does in real wood, the savings start to add up.Almost anything may be designed, and it all has to fit within the same pricing range. And, like timber, there are a variety of widths and board lengths to choose from. When it comes to styles, the world of tiles encompasses everything that nature has to give, as well as whatever that the designers can conjure up.No design or pattern is beyond the reach of a factory's creative staff, thanks to the technology accessible in the modern day, now that inkjet printing has replaced the previous screen printing. While the image is incredibly lifelike, the texture generated on the tile's surface is equally amazing. With the naked eye, distinguishing between wood and wood impression tiles has become extremely difficult, if not impossible.

slate

If you wish to install your own slate roof, you need conduct some preliminary study. Preparation is crucial to success, so make sure you understand slate types, production procedures, sheathing, flashing, nailing, and supplies, as well as slate roofing tools, before you begin.First and foremost, make sure your roof is suited for a slate roof installation. Slate roofs should not have a slope of less than 4:12. (4 feet of rise on 12 feet of run). If your roof satisfies this criterion, think about getting the right slating tools and purchasing the slates and other items you'll need for the job.Get the right slating tools and put them to work. A slate ripper, a slate cutter, and a slate hammer should be included in your basic toolbox. Use a slate cutter rather than a diamond saw to cut slates. The former generates a bevelled edge on the slate that matches the appearance of all other slates, whereas the latter produces a square edge that stands out.You want the correct slates for your roof, yet not all slates are created equal. Consider the type, quality, size, and thickness of slates while making your selection, as well as the ramifications for your work. Thick slates, for example, are more difficult to cut, but little slates take longer to install since there are more of them.Make that the nail holes on the slates are in the proper locations. The holes should be positioned so that the nails may be driven in just above the underlying slate's head. You'll be nailing right through the head of the underlying slate if the nail holes are too low, which you should never do because it might cause leaks.Make sure you order the correct number of slates. You should plan ahead of time for your head lap and order extra slates to accommodate it. Starter course slates need be ordered individually. Only the top and front of the slate should have nail holes for your introductory course.

porcelain paving

The word porcelain came from the Old Italian word "porcellana," meaning "little pig" - a nickname given to cowrie shells (because the craft resembles its surface). Porcelain pottery is described as white (although it can be colored artificially), translucent, vitreous and resistant to thermal shock. It is usually in the form of vases, dishes, kitchen wares and many ornamental objects. Porcelain is also a good insulator that it is used in making false teeth.Porcelain pottery was born in China. This is why porcelain is also called "china" in English-speaking countries. The first specimens dated back to as far as the 6th century. By the 16th century BC (in the middle of the Shang dynasty which ruled from the 17th to the 11th century BC), the art of making porcelain pottery was found to have developed. Porcelain was also mentioned in the accounts by Marco Polo during the 13th century.porcelain paving is basically made by mixing of kaolin (a form of decomposed granite), petunse (china clay) and feldspar (china stone). This mixture is fired up to 1200â,,?, glazed, and fired again. Much care is needed when making porcelain. For example, impurities present in the clay may produce a grayish or pinkish product instead of pure white. There are three kinds of porcelain pottery: Hard paste porcelain, soft paste porcelain and bone china.Hard paste porcelain is fired at a temperature higher than what is needed for making soft paste porcelain. This makes it harder as feldspar hardens glaze the higher the temperature at which it is fired. Hard paste porcelain is made up of fifty percent china clay, thirty percent china stone or feldspar and twenty percent flint. Its appearance is translucent. Hard paste porcelain is initially fired between 900â,,? and 1000â,,?. The temperature for the second firing should be between 1350â,,? and 1400â,,?.Soft paste porcelain has a thick, clear glaze on to which enamel colors melt. Among its ingredients are glass and feldspar. It is fired at a higher temperature than that of hard paste porcelain. Porcelain pottery of this kind was also manufactured in France during the 17th century and was called "pate tendre."Bone china is the strongest of the three kinds. It has animal bones added to it which gives it an ivory white color and superior translucency. It is also easier to manufacture compared to hard paste porcelain. This kind of porcelain was developed by Josiah Stone in 1800.Porcelain pottery came to Europe through trade; it spread to England, to the Netherlands and to Germany as well as other parts of Europe.

marble effect tiles

Not so long ago, the restoration of marble and tile surfaces was a tedious pain in the you-know-what that would have homeowners, landlords, and businesses alike cringing at the thought. However, recently new methods have been developed that allow you to easily restore marble and tile to it's previous luster and glory and, in some cases, even improve it beyond that. Now that the process is more viable and cost-effective as ever, I've taken the time below to outline a few of the prime benefits you can expect from restoring your marble and tile.First of all, you can say goodbye to a surface that's lost its luster or gone "dull". When a surface is properly restored it becomes shiny and smooth again, giving you that brand-new glossy appeal that natural surfaces hold. Furthermore, resurfacing can also remove scratches and blemishes that may have accumulated over time on your tile or marble. These kinds of scratches are usually the result of years of everyday wear and tear on a counter or floor, but can easily be polished out and looking like a model home for sale in no time!Sealant is another way in which many companies can now protect your surfaces. Sealant is either put on before the surface is laid into place, after it's already down, or both, depending on the material and it's environment. Many benefits can come from using this type of sealant including a surface that can more easily prevent moisture buildup and thus negate this type of damage. This also makes the surface easier to clean and more resistant to stains from spills and general use. Furthermore, you will be combating mold buildup by making it so that the mold can never gain a foothold in the first place.However, with marble effect tiles in particular you've got an entirely new problem altogether: Grout buildup. Grime builds up within the space between tiles and can be a nasty challenge to fully remove. Getting grout cleaned can not only give your tile surface a completely new and improved look, but it can also eliminate buildup that can be harmful to your health. Grime and dirt will be washed away and most companies even include a resurfacing of the surrounding tile to remove surface buildup as well!

wood effect tiles

The cheapest option is a low quality laminate floor. A thin, non water-resistant mounting board with no grooved edges is the cheapest to produce. It is an excellent option for those on the tightest of budgets, perhaps for a landlord refurbishing a rental property, or used as a quick and easy method to tidy up a shed or garage.Moving up in price is where wood effect tiles have a distinct advantage. Engineered or solid timber flooring has a retail price corresponding to the manufacturing costs attendant to the species of wood in question. A rare species will command a much higher premium than common indigenous varieties. Walnut from Brazil or cypress from Australia will typically be at the higher end of the spectrum when compared to locally milled oak or birch.A tile factory can replicate any of these woods, exotic or otherwise, without a movement in price. All the characteristics of real planks can be represented with incredible accuracy, but for a fraction of the cost of the genuine article. Add that to the fact that it costs no more to produce a wider plank in ceramic, compared to real wood, and the savings begin to mount up.Practically anything can be designed, and all in the same price bracket. And like timber, there are a multitude of different sizes and plank lengths available. When it comes to styles, the world of tiles covers everything offered by nature, in addition to anything within the bounds of the designers' imagination.It is a testament to the technology available in the modern era, now that inkjet printing has replaced the older screen printing, that no design or pattern is beyond the reach of a factory's creative team. While the print is astonishingly lifelike, so too is the texture achieved on the surface of the tile. It is now very difficult, if not impossible, to tell the difference between wood and wood effect tiles with the naked eye.

Preparation is the key to success, so before you start make sure you are knowledgeable about slate types, their manufacturing techniques, sheathing, flashing, nailing and materials as well as slate roofing tools.First of all, check that your roof is suitable for the installation of a slate roof. Slate roofs should not be installed below a slope of 4:12 (4 feet of rise on 12 feet of run). If your roof meets this requirement, give some thought to acquiring appropriate slating tools and to buying the slates and other materials you will need for the job.Get the correct slating tools and use them. Your basic toolkit should consist of a slate ripper, a slate cutter and a slate hammer. When cutting slates, use a slate cutter not a diamond saw. The former will create a bevelled edge on the slate which matches the look of all other slates, whereas a diamond blade produces a square edge which looks out of place.Not all slates are created equal and you want the right slates for your roof. When choosing slates consider the type, quality, size and thickness and their implications for your work. For example, thick slates are harder to cut while small slates take longer to install as there will be more of them.Make sure the slates have the nail holes in the right place. The holes should be positioned in such a way that you can get the nails in just above the head of the underlying slate. If the nail holes are too low, you'll be nailing right through the head of the underlying slate and you should never do that as it can create leaks.Order the right quantity of slates. You should work out your head lap in advance and order enough slates to accommodate this. It is best to order starter course slates separately. You want the nail holes for your starter course only along the top and on the front of the slate.

limestone

Limestone is one of the most beautiful natural stones used for Limestone Floor Tiles, lthey are made from many different limestones from every corner of the Earth, but sometimes we don't notice the wonderful limestone formations right here, virtually on our own doorstep. The three most important limestone found in and around the United Kingdom are:1. Cretaceous era Limestone - 65-145 million years oldThese are the various chalks that dominate much of South East England, such as the North and South Downs. Chalk is a fine-grained white porous rock, composed from the fossilized remains of marine organisms. Chalk is generally too soft to be used for limestone floor tiles or any other building purposes, but is used a lot in the cement-making process. There are also many bands of Flint occurring throughout the rock formations. The most famous chalk formations in this area can be seen in the white cliffs around Dover.2. Jurassic era Limestone - 196-145 million years oldThese occur in and around the Cotswolds, with a pale brown colour, it is also know as "honey" or "Golden" limestone. They are much softer and more porous than the Carboniferous Limestone and occur in Limestone beds several metres thick. These are important as building stones, especially around the Cotswolds and they are sufficiently well formed to be used as freestones. They are not usually strong enough to be used in industrial construction, but are often pure and strong enough to be used for making Limestone Tiles.3. Carboniferous era Limestone - 299-359 million years oldThis is a solid and dense limestone rock of low porosity, and mainly occurring in thick beds. Carboniferous era Limestones have prominent vertical joints, they can be easily spilt into blocks for use as building stone, limestone floor tiles and limestone flooring. Carboniferous Limestone can be found widespread around the Peak District, Mendips and Yorkshire Dales. These type of Carboniferous limestone landscapes contain most of the potholes and natural cave systems in Great Britain. Carboniferous limestone is either a fine calcite mud, precipitated from warm shallow seas, or a shelly limestone, formed by fragments of animals such as corals and marine organisms. It is a very hard rock, and is commonly used for Limestone flooring and Limestone Tiles, but can also be used for cement making because it is often quite pure, and as a source of calcium carbonate for the chemical industry.

terracotta

Terracotta, the first creative expression of civilization, man's first attempt at craftsmanship. Terracotta, a form of art that is considered magical in ancient India for its atavistic nature which incorporates five elements - earth, water, air, fire and ether.Terracotta is basically a ceramic. Etymologically Italian, terracotta means "baked earth" or "fired earth". But the term 'terracotta' is also used to refer to the particulars made out of it. The craft of terra cotta involves using clay to prepare reddish brown unglazed earthenware firing it through a very high temperature. The reddish brown color is basically because of the presence of iron. Other colors include yellow, grey and pink.The history of sculptor and pottery started with terracotta. From the petty earthen pot for the trivialities of daily use to the idols they worship, terra cotta occupied an important place in the lives of the people of ancient India, without which life would come to a stand-still for them. In the Indian sub continent terracotta art bears testimony to the varied and ancient traditions of its practice over five millennia. Harrappa and Mohenjodaro civilization bears the evidences of the antiquity of the craft terracotta.But the domain of the craft of terracotta is not confined only to India. The art of terracotta has defined a culture for generations in Imprunetta of Italy where the craft is still blooming. Beginning in the 15th century and continuing through the 18th, Italian sculptors raised terra cotta to a status of indomitable fame in the house of European creative art. The terracotta stuff handcrafted by them has the exquisity and antique traditions respecting the cultural and professional continuity of the art.Among other countries making extensive use of the art of terracotta are China, England, France, America and Africa (west). The Terracotta Army of China (the terra cotta soldiers), the Abduction of Hippodameia (from Greek mythology) in France, and the two buildings of Victorian Birmingham in England bear testimonial of this antique art of terra cotta.The craft of terracotta in India is an epitome of religious expression conveyed through clay. Molded clay is converted to masks and murals capturing the sculptor's imagination. Nevertheless, always existing outside the rigid rules of the constituted Hindu canons governing artistic expression, the art of terracotta enjoys enormous freedom in terms of imagination and conception which lead to the parturition of a wide variety of sculptures with the tag of 'beauty and ethnicity' attached to it, for good. In the world scenario, the most famous terracotta sculptures are those of the Terracotta Warriors in United Kingdom.
