Great service and lots of advice on how to lay new Victorian Tiles in a small area of a hall. The advice given for preparing the area to be tiled was invaluable and helped to make laying the tiles easy and give a fabulous finished job.
We have been both delighted and impressed with this company. Tim was kindness itself, helpful and patient as we chose our tiles as it took us a while to decide from the extensive choice on offer. He gave guidance too and managed the process really well. Our tiler Terry was first class. The final product is fantastic and we have already had many compliments on style, quality and craftsmanship. We highly recommend this company. They deliver in every way.
Excellent service from this company. Helpful at every stage of the process, both in person and online communication. Tiles ordered, delivered promptly and look great although yet to be laid. Factory delivered one short and following contact with Tim the tile was there the following day. Impressed
A wonderful selection of tiles, especially if you want something a bit different and classier than the big name retailers. Great service throughout, with plenty of help and advice if you are a bit unsure about what looks great. Our new kitchen looks fantastic.
Tim’s attention to detail is second to none and his tiler exactly the same, they are a great team who provided a design based on my original Minton tiles in the vestibule which had crumbled, and needed replacing. The design provided was as near to the original as possible and a year on, every time I look at it I’m glad I had it done, beautiful design, expertly executed. I would recommend every time! Before and after pics.
Tim and the team at Alternative Tiles were extremely helpful. It is clear they have extensive knowledge. Very efficient service, would highly recommend.
Fantastic product and amazing service from Tim. Would always recommend. Purchased floor tiles for bathroom.
Fantastic support a rare commodity these days. Designed the layout of the tiles free of charge and gave me loads of support and advice on how to approach the job. Wouldn't hestitate to recommend him. I've now finish the job and the support has continued throughout. The advice and help was first rate.
Alternative Tiles in Derby provided outstanding support during my first tiling project. As a complete beginner, I was unsure where to start, but their knowledgeable and friendly team guided me every step of the way. Thanks to their expert advice and encouragement, I managed to create a stunning fireplace for my narrowboat. They were incredibly patient and helpful, offering tips and recommendations that made all the difference. I can’t recommend them enough for anyone, beginner or expert, looking for quality tiles and exceptional customer service.
What a great find. Tim was a joy to deal with, incredibly helpful and professional. We are installing a new hearth and needed some help on designing an array of tiles that worked with the space, they look amazing and the quality is superb. Delivered exactly when they said they would be. Would not hesitate to recommend.
What an amazing place to get times from. Tim and his colleague were both fantastic. They really know their stuff and it's more than just getting a sale for them, it's about getting it right for us, the customer (even allowing us to make our pattern up on their floor with the tiles they had lying around!). I will definitely continue to recommend them to anyone in the future. Can't wait to see our new hall when it's done.
I would highly recommend Alternative tiles, Tim provided us with great advice on how best to tile over our old door step. He helped us design a pattern and ensure there was enough tiles to complete the job . Tim was very patient with us while my wife and I decided on what colour combination to use, even after several visits to his shop. There are few companies that truly give great genuine customer service and Tim from Alternative Tiles is one of these companies.
We couldn’t believe the range of fantastic tiles at Alternative Tiles! The service was excellent and extremely thorough. Despite us leaving things quite last minute, they were so helpful and able to provide exactly what we wanted within the tight time frame. Highly recommend!
Great support and help planning the layout of the tiles. Tiles look great.
Great Service from Tim and his team at Victorian Floors. We are delighted with our new tiled floor (Original Style Tiles) Tim was straight on to our enquiry, produced a quote and layout with amazing speed. Arranged tiles and delivery, also gave us loads of advice from choosing jointing material to maintenance. Definitely would recommend this company, very reliable and easy to deal with. Thanks very much.
Outstanding response speed, brilliant advice and excellent service. Have been really impressed with Alternative Tiles and Tim. Thank you, would definitely recommend.

Great advice and service from Tim, along with good communication throughout. Closing our main entrance was a challenge but I’m sure it will pay back many times over the years.
We recently had our porch way re- tiled using Victorian tiles from Alternative Tiles - Derby. The service offered by Tim and the team @ Alternative was excellent, very professional and efficient. The tiler we used who was one recommended by Alternative did a superb job , very conscientious and exact - a true tradesman. I would not hesitate to recommend Alternative - quality shines through!
