I'm in the process of uncovering and cleaning up the original 1970s floor tiles in our lounge, but as I'm taking the hearth out I will ideally need some more to fill the gap, unless I just paint the bit over.
The tiles are dark reddish-brown with red and white flecks and appear to have been used in a lot of places over the years - an older work colleague had some in his first house and I've seen them in a 1950's house too (mine is late 70's).
They are about 3 to 4mm thick, fairly brittle and stuck down with black bitumen. Are they available anywhere, or an I being too optimistic? I guess reclaimed is not possible as they'd probably break before when they were removed!
Any advice or help much appreciated.
