Porcelain outdoor tiles are engineered with textures and typically rated R11 or higher for external areas. Aim for low-risk PTV where surfaces are frequently wet.

No sealing is usually required for porcelain. Grout and natural stone accessories may have separate care needs — check the product pages.

20 mm porcelain is the go-to for patios, paths and steps thanks to its strength and stability.

For front gardens over 5 m², use permeable build-ups or plan for sustainable drainage to avoid permission requirements. See the Planning Portal for specifics.

Use a neutral cleaner and a soft brush. Rinse well. Avoid harsh bleach and test any new product on a small area first.
