Slate Effect Hearth Tiles

Slate effect hearth tiles give you the look of slate on a fireplace or log burner hearth, in a porcelain tile made for solid fuel use. They are large, hard wearing and suit modern stoves and contemporary fireplaces especially well.

Our slate effect hearth tiles

All of these are large format porcelain tiles with a small chamfer on each top edge. They are commonly called quarry tiles, but they are classed as porcelain.

Slate effect black tile, 300 x 300mm, with a slate pattern on the surface
Slate effect beige tile, 300 x 300mm, a lighter, warmer option
Spirit Charcoal Portland tile, 297 x 297mm, with a fine grain pattern in dark grey
Spirit Silver Portland tile, 297 x 297mm, the same grain pattern in a pale grey

Slate effect porcelain or natural slate?

These are porcelain tiles with a slate pattern, not natural stone. If you want real slate specifically, this is a different product. If you want the slate look on a working hearth, porcelain is a practical choice.

Every tile is the same size and thickness, with the same chamfered edge. That makes a large hearth easier to lay neatly, and the dense porcelain body is made for solid fuel fires.

Slate effect tiles for a log burner hearth

Large tiles mean fewer joints, which gives a stove hearth a clean, modern look. Black and charcoal suit most stoves, while beige and silver lighten a dark chimney breast.

For more on choosing tiles for a stove, read our guide to log burner hearth tiles. If you prefer a plain finish, see our black fireplace tiles.

Fixing and cutting slate effect hearth tiles

Fix them with a heat resistant adhesive, not standard tile adhesive, which loses its grip under repeated heating. We supply Vitcas heat resistant tile adhesive, rated to 1000°C.

Porcelain is hard to cut cleanly without the right tools. We offer tile cutting at £1 per cut, with hand finished edges, so the tiles arrive ready to lay.
