Sybarite Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Trying to find tile for our kitchen backsplash to add a touch of retro. Been to a dozen tile places and can't find anything but "Tuscan" and glass. Does anyone know where to shop for ceramic or porcelain tile in retro colors in Houston?

toadfroggy Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I've been scoping ceramic tile for my kitchen. You can look at what Daltile has available at their website: www.daltile.comYou can't buy online, but they have a showroom on Richmond. I haven't been to the showroom, so I don't know what they have available to show, but I'd be willing to bet they have at least a sample of everything the website shows you, and would certainly be able to sell you anything the manufacturer offers. The navigation on the website can be a little confusing. The kind of thing you're probably looking for is the "Natural Hues" series, so make sure you see that before you decide they don't have what you're looking for.

It's off the beaten path to be sure but has a wide selection including the style and color you may be looking for. Their phone number is 281 447 6354 and they've been there for ages.

It will likely have to be special ordered, but they do have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
