Choosing the right tile size depends on the room dimensions and purpose:

• Small rooms (bathrooms, kitchens): 1x1 ft or 1x2 ft tiles work well and create a balanced look
• Medium rooms (bedrooms): 2x2 ft tiles are the most popular choice
• Large rooms (living rooms, halls): 2x4 ft or 4x4 ft large-format tiles create a spacious, seamless feel
• Walls: Smaller tiles (30x45 cm or 30x60 cm) are typically used for wall applications

As a general rule, larger tiles make a room appear bigger. Our team can help you select the perfect size based on your floor plan.

Yes, we understand that choosing tiles is a visual and tactile decision. Here are your options:

• Showroom Visit: Visit our showroom to see and touch the full range of products in person
• Sample Request: For select products, we can arrange small sample pieces -- contact our team to check availability
• Digital Catalog: Browse high-resolution product images on our website with detailed specifications

We always recommend a showroom visit before finalising large orders, as screen colors may vary from the actual product.

Both are popular choices, but they differ in several ways:

• Composition: Vitrified tiles are made by fusing silica and clay at very high temperatures, making them denser. Ceramic tiles use natural clay fired at lower temperatures.
• Water Absorption: Vitrified tiles have very low water absorption (less than 0.5%), making them ideal for bathrooms and outdoor areas. Ceramic tiles absorb more water and are better for dry indoor walls.
• Durability: Vitrified tiles are stronger, more scratch-resistant, and suitable for high-traffic floors. Ceramic tiles are softer and more suited for walls and low-traffic areas.
• Price: Ceramic tiles are generally more affordable. Vitrified tiles cost more but offer better long-term value for flooring.
• Maintenance: Vitrified tiles are stain-resistant and easy to clean. Ceramic tiles may require sealing for floor use.

Our team can help you decide based on your specific room requirements and budget.

You can place an order with Trove India in two ways:

• Online: Browse our product catalog, add items to your cart, and proceed to checkout. You can check out as a guest or create an account for faster future purchases.
• In-Store: Visit our showroom in Hubli where our team will assist you in selecting the right products and placing your order on the spot.

For bulk or project orders, please contact us directly so we can provide a custom quotation based on your requirements.

Since tiles and natural stones are heavy materials, delivery timelines depend on your location and order size:

• Hubli-Dharwad area: 2-4 business days
• the region (Belgaum, Gadag, Haveri, etc.): 5-7 business days
• Rest of Karnataka: 7-10 business days
• Other states: 10-15 business days (subject to availability)

Large project orders may require additional lead time for procurement. You will receive tracking details once your order is dispatched.

Our primary delivery region is the region and surrounding areas. However, we can arrange delivery to other parts of Karnataka and neighbouring states like Goa and Maharashtra on a case-by-case basis.

For interstate orders, shipping charges and timelines may vary due to the heavy nature of tiles and stone products. Please contact our team with your delivery pincode and order details for an accurate quote.

Shipping charges for tiles depend on the weight, volume, and delivery distance. Tiles are heavy materials, so transport costs are an important factor:

• Local (Hubli-Dharwad): Complimentary delivery on orders above a minimum value
• the region: Calculated based on distance and order weight
• Other locations: Freight charges apply and are quoted at the time of order

Exact shipping charges are displayed at checkout once you enter your delivery address. For large project orders, we can often arrange competitive freight rates.

While Trove India primarily supplies tiles and natural stones, we can recommend experienced tile installers and contractors in the your region. Our team has worked with many skilled masons and can connect you with trusted professionals.

We also provide guidance on the correct installation methods, adhesive recommendations, and grouting techniques for the specific products you purchase from us. Feel free to ask our team for advice during or after your purchase.

Calculating the right quantity of tiles is important to avoid wastage or shortages. Here is a simple method:

1. Measure the length and width of your room in feet
2. Multiply them to get the total area in square feet
3. Add 5-10% extra for cutting waste and breakage
4. Divide by the area of one tile (in sq ft) to get the number of tiles

For a quick and accurate estimate, use our Tile Calculator tool. Simply enter your room dimensions and tile size, and it will calculate the exact quantity you need.

The ideal grout width depends on the type and size of tile:

• Vitrified/Porcelain tiles: 1.5 mm to 2 mm -- these are precision-cut and can have narrow joints
• Ceramic tiles: 2 mm to 3 mm -- slightly wider gaps to accommodate minor size variations
• Natural stone: 3 mm to 5 mm -- wider gaps to account for natural irregularities
• Outdoor/Exterior tiles: 3 mm to 5 mm -- wider joints allow for thermal expansion

Always use tile spacers during installation for even gaps. We recommend using epoxy grout for wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens as it is waterproof and stain-resistant.

Proper maintenance keeps your tiles looking new for years. Here are our recommendations:

• Daily cleaning: Sweep or vacuum to remove dust and debris, then mop with clean water or a mild detergent
• Stain removal: Clean spills immediately. For stubborn stains, use a pH-neutral tile cleaner -- avoid harsh acids or bleach
• Grout maintenance: Clean grout lines with a soft brush and baking soda paste. Re-seal cement grout annually
• Natural stone care: Use only stone-specific cleaners. Avoid vinegar and citrus-based products as they can etch the surface
• Prevention: Use doormats at entrances and felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches

We accept a wide range of payment methods for your convenience:

• Credit & Debit Cards: Visa, MasterCard, RuPay, and American Express

Yes, we offer EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) options to make large purchases more manageable. Tile orders for full rooms or projects can be a significant investment, and EMI helps spread the cost.
