QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (13)
How often would the slate need resealing, if it was used in the bathroom? Would it be quite high maintenence? I have seen slate in quarries near the sea, so I assume it would be low maintenance?
Regards,
Dawn
When correctly maintained, the slate would only need to be resealed every 4-5 years. Sometimes longer. Normal bathroom cleaners are usually too acidic or alkaline, which can break the sealer down, leaving them prone to staining. We would recommend using a pH-neutral cleaner, such as the LTP Waxwash which will also fill gaps in any damaged sealer, further extending the time between resealing:

These tiles are made from natural slate and as such are fine for outdoor use due to their frost resistant qualities. If you are looking for a floor tile for an outside project it is worth considering one with an anti-slip surface as well https://www.wallsandfloors.co.uk/anti-slip-tiles
Kind regards,
Walls and Floors
Yes, they can. However, due to the combined weight of the tiles and fixing materials, they cannot be installed onto conventional plaster or plasterboard backgrounds. We would recommend boarding the walls with the Hardie Backer boards which are capable of supporting excessive weights. The walls in the direct wet areas will require a coating of the Ardex WPC tanking kit which will make the walls sufficiently waterproof.
https://www.wallsandfloors.co.uk/hardiebacker-board-james-hardie
Once the tiles are installed, but before grouting, they will also need sealing, either with the LTP Mattstone or the LTP Colour Intensifier depending on your preferred finish. A further application of the sealer can be applied after grouting to ensure the tiles are sufficiently protected and this will also seal the grout to prevent discolouration:

Although grout colour is down to personal preference, grey grout has always been the most popular colour to complement Black Slate.
With regards to sealing, the LTP Mattstone will leave the tiles their natural shade, however the LTP Colour Intensifier, will slightly deepen the colour. Both of these sealers do not require any pre-treatment before use and can be applied directly to the slate. We would recommend applying the sealer both before and after grouting:

These real slate tiles are fine to bus used in and around a hearth. It would be advisable to use a sealer like https://www.wallsandfloors.co.uk/ltp-cleaning-protecting-ltp-mattstone-tile-sealer-11256 once they are fitted.
Kind regards,

These tiles do not have a slip rating as with natural slate tiles, each tile will vary in finish. However they are deemed suitable for external use and the riven will aid the slip resistance in wet condition. We would advise obtaining a sample to ensure you are happy with the finish for your personal requirements.

Walls and Floors
Natural Slate can be used on both floors and walls, providing the walls are correctly prepared. They will need sealing both before and after grouting with the LTP Colour Intensifier and future cleaning should be done with the LTP Stonewash to keep them well protected:

As an alternative we have the calibrated slate in two finishes, brushed and honed. The brushed has had most of the natural riven removed leaving a more antiqued finished whereas the honed is extremely smooth. Both tiles are gauged to 10mm thick:

These are natural slate tiles so can be used in both internal and external situations. To ensure they are completely weather proof, they require sealing with the LTP Mattstone sealer.
