5Nice product! A couple notes if you plan to match them to 1x2 tilesApr 05, 2011
By McElligot's Pool
First off, as a stand-alone tile, the Earthworks 1x1 stainless steel tiles are attractive, with a brushed stainless look - very nice! For that reason, I give the tile 5 stars.

Now, given the way I needed to use them - and if you are in a similar situation - there are a few qualifiers to note and I would only give the tile 4 stars at this point. I bought the 1x1 Earthworks tiles to complete a kitchen backsplash I was installing using Earthwork's 1x2 stainless steel tiles in a "subway" brick pattern. To ensure I was getting as good a match as possible, I even contacted the seller to inquire if the two Earthworks tiles (1x1 and 1x2) were a match. The seller assured me the two tiles would match up - and they do, to a point.

The surface material looks identical for both tile sizes (1x1 and 1x2). They are both a "brushed" stainless and look excellent together.

The surface dimensions (1x1) of the tiles line up nicely with the surface dimensions of the 1x2 tiles, which was my question for the seller - so their assurances that surface dimensions would match up was accurate.

But there is a difference in thickness between the two tile sizes - the 1x1 Earthworks tiles are noticeably thicker than the 1x2 Earthworks tiles. Why the apparently same style tiles from the same company would be different thicknesses is anybody's guess. While the thickness differential is noticeable when the tiles are installed, it doesn't seem an issue to our eyes. The fact that the tiles match up in surface dimension and material overcomes, at least to us, the thickness difference. In short: we can see the thickness difference when looking at the backsplash, but it doesn't bother us. Mileage may differ - it may bother you.

The other issue with the 1x1 tiles was the relative ease at which the stainless steel overlay detached from the ceramic tile undeneath. Both the 1x1 and 1x2 tiles are a ceramic tile covered/wrapped by a stainless steel overlay, which has been glued/adhered to the ceramic tile underneath. As I worked with the 1x1 tiles, about 10% of the stainless overlays disconnected from the ceramic tile base. They can be glued on again - just means an extra step and hassle.

A word of explanation here. The 1x2 tiles comprising most of the backsplash were a staggered subway brick pattern, so at each end of the backsplash (and around light switches and wall plugs) the staggered pattern created 1x1 gaps every other tile row. I ordered the 1x1 tiles to fill these gaps, rather than trying to cut the 1x2 tiles. This meant I was using the 1x1 tiles individually, so I had to remove them from the net backing holding the square foot sheet of tiles together. I had to be careful in the way I removed the tiles from the net backing or the stainless overlay would pop off. Had I not been removing the individual tiles from the net backing, the stainless overlays would not have popped off. With care, I found I could remove the tiles without incident.

All in all, regardless of the tile thickness difference and the issue with the stainless overlays coming loose from the tile, this was still a far better solution than trying to cut the 1x2 tiles to fill the 1x1 gaps at the ends of the backsplash. Cutting the 1x2's would very likely have caused the stainless overlay to pop off the ceramic tile base and would also have left me with exposed ceramic tile showing on the edge that was cut.

The tiles were very easy to install, even given the way I was using them (individual tiles cut from the net backing).

Bottom line? These are nice, affordable stainless steel tiles. Once installed, they look super and give a timeless look to your kitchen. Obviously, if you're using all 1x1 tiles, you will have a very uniform look. But using them with the 1x2 tiles also works well, with only the few qualifiers above.

  'THE 5' - The five points/Things to read before you order  

 

Carrara Mosaic Venato Collection- buying online is easier than ever.  Consumers are spending more and more each year in online purchases and are showing with their wallets just how comfortable they are in shopping on the internet. 875 million consumers worldwide have made purchases on the web, up 40% from 627 million two years ago, according to the Nielsen Global Online Survey.

"The Internet is no longer a niche technology-it is mass media and an utterly integrated part of modern life," says Builders Depot Direct spokesperson. "As our lives become more fractured and cluttered, it isn't surprising that consumers turn to the unrivalled convenience of the Internet when it comes to researching and buying products."

The information you need in order to complete a Carrara bathroom remodeling project with Carrara subway tile, Carrara Basketweave or Carrara Hexagon mosaic inserts has become easier to reach these days. It seems as though you can't even flip through the channels without seeing some sort of home improvement show or some type of remodeling show dedicated to a specific area of the home. Today, the Internet also aids the homeowner with a great deal of information on how to improve the look and feel of your home. Creating a spa like Carrara bathroom is one of the top home remodeling projects in 2009/10.

With the convenience of shopping from home at the top of most shoppers lists consumers are buying everything from electronics, apparel, jewelry, and even furniture from internet showrooms. With this in mind, shopping for a new Spa Carrara bathroom look online can provide access to a much wider selection of items and significantly lower price than one might find at their local tile store or major Home Center. Shopping online with Builders Depot Direct offers great advantages:

Price:  One of the biggest advantages of buying bathroom or remodeling supplies from Builders Depot Direct online is the price, Builders Depot Direct offers prices that cannot be competed with by ‘ANY‘ traditional brick and mortar retailer, their cost base which must be passed on to the consumer through the product is just too high.

Many times you will find that the price that you get online is going to be better than the price that you are going to find at your local tile store. For the small items such as trims you may not see a significant price difference but for larger items such as Carrara Hexagon Mosaic you will see a more significant difference - in most cases over 70%. Finally Tax Free shopping online through Builders Depot Direct offers tax free shopping in some cases an immediate saving of up to 9%.

Convenience:  Many homeowners enjoy shopping in the comfort of their own homes because it is much more convenient than shopping with the masses. This especially holds true around the holidays.

Selection:  Our customers look far and wide for tile collections that are unique and appealing to our loyal customers. Some we design ourselves, some we procure from factories where we maintain long-standing relationships. In either case, we endeavor to bring tile collections that offer the highest quality, unique tile designs, and attractive pricing to our customers.

Shipping:  Tile is heavy and therefore in many cases it can be expensive to ship. Through our extensive relationships in the freight industry we are able to offer our customers reduced flat rate shipping to each of the 50 US States for all of the products on our website. We also offer many freight options - we just do not let a computer come up with a flat rate like our competitors that is more than fair for someone who lives 3,000 miles from the warehouse but unfair to someone in the next state, we look at all orders and shipping on a case by case basis.

Fast Delivery:  More than 90% of our products are in-stock and ready to ship immediately. For these items we make every effort to ship them within 24 - 48 hours depending on when we receive your order. Some items can take a bit longer to ship - up to a week during our busy periods on account of demand. But for the most part, orders are shipped quickly and all tracking numbers are provided to our customers so they can track their package from the convenience of their home.

The number one reason consumers say they do not want to shop online is because they cannot feel and look at the product themselves, Builders Depot Direct answers that by offering samples of all their products and encourages our customers to buy samples before any purchase.

Our sample shipping department is particularly unique, shipping 95% of all sample orders in 2009 on the same day - you can read this ‘fast shipping' comment again and again on our 100% positive EBay and Amazon ratings.

We challenge any potential customer to compare our Venato Carrara product offering to any of our competitors at Walker Zanger or Ann Sacks - affordable pricing, customer specific shipping, and fast order turn-around times which all make for a pleasant and hassle free shopping experience saving our customers thousands of dollars while increasing their homes value.
