Placed order online and paid via BACS as requested and sent email to confirm payment and delivery. Followed up just before delivery to be advised that order had not been processed and wouldn't be arriving as agreed and planned for works. Only reason given was sorry order wasnt processed. Awful customer service. Do not touch or use

Excellent customer service and tile choice

Bounds Green branch -excellent customer service from Ayaz and Oliver, who were very knowledgeable, patient and professional in providing advice on my tiling project. They were also super lovely with it even carrying all my goods to my car. I would strongly recommend this store.

Great customer service

Got to say some of the best customer service I have seen. You know the true value of a company when issues pop up. We ordered some tiles and the work started a few weeks later. We discovered we wouldn't have enough tiles and they had been clearance tiles. The team at @boundgreen rang around and managed to source enough and then have them transported for different branches to a single branch for collection. Keeping me in the loop all along to get this solved. Massive thanks to Oli

Tiles advertised as 1cm thick, received 0.74cm thick

I purchased tiles from this shop to use as a backsplash. I chose and paid for tiles advertised as being 1 centimeter thick, but the boxes of the tiles I’ve received clearly labeled them as 0.74 centimeters thick which is also labeled on the box. This means I effectively received something different from what I chose and paid for. While the tiles look similar, their properties, including quality and thickness, are noticeably different, and this is disappointing. The tiler couldn’t use the edge trim that I’ve supplied as it was for 10mm tiles.
That said, the staff at the shop were amazing and very helpful, making the situation even more surprising. Overall, I’m disappointed with the tile quality.Try to stay away from tiles made in Turkey - ask any tiler. I didn’t…
Sent an email to look for a resolution but they didn’t bother to reply 3 days later.
Edit: the reply below mentions the tolerance of 3mm which sound ridiculous and might apply to the pack of tiles itself and what’s inside the pack. While the pack has label that specifies 0.74cm thickness how can the industry allow the seller to advertise it as 1cm.

Thank you for your review. While we are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied, we would like to clarify the situation based on industry standards and our published Terms and Conditions.

All ceramic and porcelain tiles are sold using a nominal size. Due to the nature of the manufacturing and kilning process, variations in tile dimensions including thickness are normal and unavoidable. As clearly outlined in our Terms and Conditions, an acceptable tolerance of up to ±3mm applies. The tiles you received were clearly labelled on the packaging with their working size of 0.74cm, which is within accepted industry tolerance and does not indicate a fault, defect, or inferior quality.

It is the customer’s responsibility to inspect tiles for suitability, size, calibre, and compatibility with trims and accessories prior to installation. Once tiles have been used or installed, they are deemed accepted as fit for purpose. This includes any implications relating to edge trims, installation methods, or associated costs. As stated in our policy, we are unable to exchange tiles or compensate for installation or trim-related issues once fixing has commenced.

Our liability, as outlined in our Terms and Conditions, is strictly limited to the price paid for the goods themselves. We are not responsible for any consequential losses, including installer costs or additional materials required due to installation decisions.

The tiles supplied meet manufacturing standards and are widely used within the industry. Country of origin does not determine quality, and tiles manufactured in Turkey comply with international quality and production standards.

We note your comment regarding email correspondence. While we aim to respond as promptly as possible, response times may vary during busy periods. This does not reflect a lack of willingness to assist.

We stand by the products supplied and confirm they were delivered as manufactured, labelled, and within accepted tolerances. We encourage all customers to review specifications and inspect tiles thoroughly prior to installation to avoid issues of this nature.

I recently purchased tiles form the Luton branch and I have to say that the tiles and prices are very good but the main reason I would 100% recommend and use tile diy again is the customer service, we dealt with a few of the guys in the shop and all of them were amazing and professional and was willing to help in every way, Thanks for all your help.

Thank you so much for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the filters didn’t appear properly for you.

Our website offers a full range of detailed filters, available on both desktop and mobile, to make finding the right tiles easier and quicker. You can filter by:
Price Range, Colour, Size Format, Shape, Style, Material, Texture (Feel), Finish (Appearance), Dark/Light Colour, Suitability (Wall/Floor), and Size.

It’s possible your browser didn’t fully load the page, or a brief website glitch prevented the filters from showing correctly. Making it simple to find the perfect tiles for your project is always one of our top priorities.

We’d love for you to give it another try, and if everything loads correctly this time, we’d truly appreciate it if you could update your 3-star review. Your updated feedback would mean a lot to us.

Warm regards,
Tiles DIY Team

Great service from Bounds Green team

My family have had a fabulous experience with the team at Tiles DIY in Bounds Green - Luke, in particular, is a superstar and has provided tons of advice, feedback and worked super hard to help us choose and order items for our home renovation. Definitely worth a trip for the face to face experience and advice and to see products upclose (particularly their broad range of Phoenix branded items). Highly recommended!

Hanworth DIY Tiles

Thank you Govinda for going the extra mile today with your customer service. It took us some time to decide the colours - thank you for your understanding especially as it was already quite late in the day.
We could see the tiles on the floor as well as on the walls which was very useful as the colours look a bit different depending on the angle.

The Hanworth Branch has an abundance of choice of tiles. We ordered tiles before for a bathroom _ we were well informed of the delivery times as well.

Perfect Tiles & Outstanding Service

I had been searching for the perfect tiles for my bathroom for two days, visiting multiple stores, but nothing quite matched what I had in mind. Just when I was beginning to lose hope, I stumbled upon Tiles DIY Staple Corner—and thank goodness I did!

I was absolutely amazed that after all that searching, I found exactly what I was looking for in just 10 minutes here. All the credit goes to Pegah, who was simply fantastic! She not only understood my vision but also guided me straight to the perfect tiles without any hassle. Her patience, expertise, and keen eye for detail made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable.

What truly sets this place apart is their beautifully designed bathroom models, which help you visualize how everything will look once installed. It made my decision so much easier!

A huge thank you to Tiles DIY Staple Corner and especially Pegah for your outstanding customer service. If you’re looking for top-quality tiles and expert guidance, this is the place to go! 🌟

The best in its sector

The best in its sector. I have been in the throes of renovating a house for the past half year. All my 3 bathrooms in the house are from Tiles DYI, everything starting from tiles to radiators to entire bathroom furniture have been provided by Tiles DIY Colchester. Colin in the store is absolutely phenomenal, one of the most supportive, empathetic, and knowledgeable tradesperson I have worked with on this project.

If you have been let down by other suppliers, providers, and tradespersons in the sector, I am certain this store, and especially Colin, can help you get back on your feet and go above & beyond to help.

Tiles DIY did not honour their promises or contract

I have always been happy to post glowing reviews on Trustpilot for companies giving me outstanding service. In this case, the opposite applies. This regards my Tiles DIY order no. SOR00072783 dated 13/3/2024 for Thassos White marble tiles. The sample shown in the Bounds Green branch was a perfect match to our existing tiles and the salesman promised that the ones ordered would be of the same quality. However, on delivery, we were horrified to see that they were far from it. All the boxes were heavily stained – caused by long-term storage in a damp environment [according to the salesman]. Over time, most of the tiles had absorbed this yellow/brown staining. [multiple photos available]. Most of the tiles were extremely poor quality or pitted or scratched or broken. No less than 30 extra boxes were delivered in with the promise they would be better. They weren’t, and the branch manager came himself to inspect them. In the end we could only use 15 sq metres and the salesman came, checked the unused tiles and took them all away with the boxes. Now the Operations Manager has refused to even refund us for the unused tiles, breaking their own contract terms, in my opinion [his email dated 15/8/2024]. Disgraceful. This review, prior to submitting, was hand-delivered to Tiles DIY staff for fact-checking in my presence.

Absolutely amazing service provided by tiles diy staff member Shahid at ilford store. Greeted us politely when I visited the store with family, offered us nice hot chocolate. Very polite, very respectful and professional staff he is, helped us with our required tiles coverage area for our property efficiently managed and delivered on time. I personally recommend him for future orders with tiles diy
