While slate tiles are a popular choice, there are many other types of tiles available, including:

• Clay tiles: A cost-effective option, clay tiles are made from natural clay and are often used on traditional and period properties.
• Concrete tiles: A more affordable alternative to slate, concrete tiles are made from a mixture of cement, sand, and aggregate.
• Stone tiles: Available in a range of natural stones, including limestone, marble, and travertine, stone tiles offer a luxurious and sophisticated look.
• Sandstone tiles: A popular choice for period properties, sandstone tiles are made from natural sandstone and offer a unique, textured look.
