I don't understand what a color proof tile is, please explain.

The color proof tile is a single tile of the type that you ordered (ie. matte, glass, etc). The entire image is printed on a single tile for your review and approval. The tile is usually NOT the same sized tile as the tile that will make up your order (ie. you ordered a 24 x 36 mural using 6" matte tiles, your proof tile may be a 6 x 8 or 8 x 10 matte tile). Because of color issues over the internet, we want to make sure you know exactly what you are getting when you order a mural. By sending a proof tile, you will see the colors of the image and the image on the tile type that you ordered. The proof makes sure there are no surprises! An approval of the proof tile is required before we start creating your mural.

Can I get a color proof prior to ordering the mural?

Probably. Depending on the licensing agreement we have with the artist, we can usually get a color proof tile to you before you order. There is a charge for tile samples. Prices will vary on the proof depending on the size of the sample. Please call us so we can discuss your specific situation. 866-913-8625.

Can I supply you with my tiles?

The process that we use requires the use of specially coated tiles, so we can not use tiles that you or your tile store provide. We currently have many different types of tiles available in different sizes to fit your needs. See Tile Descriptions for the recommended uses for each type of tile and the sizes available. The tiles we use are the standard size and depth tile so they will interface with your other tiles beautifully.

Do you have bull-nosed or finishing tiles available?

No, our special tiles only come with unfinished edges. We suggest that you either finish the mural piece with coordinating colored tiles that are bull-nosed or use a framing tile to frame the mural.

Absolutely. We love working with other industry professionals. We work with builders and interior designers all the time.
