Welcome to Tilers Talk. The Tilers Community Group

Welcome to Tilers Talk Bulletin Board. We scour the internet to find all the tile industry advice that we can, and bring it to you via this ad-free sponsor-free free-to-use bulletin board. Did we mention that it's free?

We are independent to all suppliers and brands. We allow any brand to post their news here, we also use socials and will pick up news and helpful posts up, automatically from there. Tilers Talk also collects news from other social groups and forums such as UK Tiling Forum and Tilers Forums. And from "Tilers Talk" and "Tilers Talk UK" fb social groups (both better than that Tilers Community lark).

Welcome to Tilers BB (Bulletin Board).

Tilers Talk is not connected to any other forum or group, we have our own Tilers Talk Facebook Group and Tilers Talk business page on Facebook. Just so we're not mixed up with other brands. We welcome members of Tilers Community on FB, Tilers Forums and other places. We're all just tilers after all. Tilers Talk will route out tile-related news and information on all social networks and websites of all the companies we train with, use and buy all the time, to share back with you on our own FB Group and this Bulletin Board here.
