What do you need to know about shopping online for tiles? We talk with Floss Kelly, co-founder, about TileCloud.

If you’re selecting and ordering tiles, there are key things to know so you don’t run into issues on site. Shopping online can be a great alternative.

Florence (or Floss as she first introduced herself to me!) is the Brand Director and Co-Founder of online store TileCloud, and she is one of three faces, of the tile store that Australian’s love.

And Floss is definitely the design savvy of TileCloud. She has a Bachelor in Design from the College of Fine Arts in Sydney, majoring in Ceramics. Using her design and ceramics background and impressive history in global retail – she and the TileCloud team have changed the Home Renovations and Interior Industry.

If you haven’t come across TileCloud yet, you’re going to love (love!) it. TileCloud is an online tile supply business. With a beautiful website, an incredibly gorgeous, curated collection of tiles to choose from, and the ability to order samples through to much bigger quantities, all from the comfort of your lounge room, TileCloud is such an incredible way to source tiles for any project.

Anyone ordering tiles normally will know that lead times are an issue – the fact that it may take sometimes 16 weeks for the tile you love in the showroom to actually get into the country in the quantity you need. TileCloud have got around this by pre-ordering batches, and only showing online what they can deliver in stock straight away.

If you’ve been to a tile showroom, you’ll know of other frustrating issues. First is that you often have to sift through a mountain of not-so-great tiles to find the gem you want. TileCloud have done such an amazing job of curating a stunning collection, it’s easy to find something you love. And the site is set out so you can sort by pattern, by colour, shape, material, room … plus you can also access design help as well.

Plus you can do this all from home. The website presents the tiles fantastically, so you can understand scale, see them in finished projects, and you can order samples of anything as well.

The prices are all displayed on the website, so you can immediately know what it will cost in the tile and freight for your project. There’s a huge range to choose from.

This ISN’T sponsored content … I just think TileCloud are awesome! I hope you enjoy this episode. Listen now.
