Tile dry-lay
Cut tiles are laid out in sequence on the floor, so the pattern flows.
For floors and walls, slabs are cut into tiles. Because the veins of Breccia Aurora run across a whole slab, the order of the tiles matters as much as their size.
Before packing, the cut tiles are laid out on the factory floor in sequence, slab by slab, exactly as they will go into the room. We adjust the order where the pattern breaks, number each piece against the layout and photograph the whole lay-out for you.
| Stage | Cut-to-size & layout |

Why it matters
Tile dry-lay before packing
A dry-lay turns a stack of tiles into a finished floor before it ever leaves the factory. The installer opens the crates in order and lays the stone the way you approved it, with no guesswork on site.
