Kitchen flags

[Tim Thompson]

My wife would like to have light coloured flags on a kitchen floor. The only problem is that it has a low ceiling, so I need a thinish product.

Any ideas? Many thanks, TT

The thinnest flags are around 20-25mm imported sandstone or limestone. We used to say that owt thinner than 30mm was a tile, but that's probably down to 20mm now.

I like the light grey imported sandstone that is sold under names such as "Greyfell", "Silver Grey" and "Silver Birch", but I can't speak for your missus. Maybe she'd prefer one of the travertines, or even a cast concrete flag, such as Gironde which claims to imitate French limestone.

All I can suggest is that you get yourself a handful of brochures and see what's on the market.
