GPTP Installation questions, answered
What is GPTP?
GPTP stands for Gauged Porcelain Tile Panels: large, ultra-thin porcelain slabs that create a near-seamless, stone-like surface with minimal grout. They are ideal for feature walls, waterfall islands, and showers.
Why does GPTP need a specialist?
Thin large-format panels require specialized cutting, handling, and full-coverage bonding. Done wrong, they crack or sound hollow. Our team has the training and tooling to install them correctly.
Where can GPTP be used?
Waterfall islands and countertops, feature walls, fireplaces, shower surrounds, and floors. Anywhere you want a continuous, high-end stone look without natural-stone maintenance.
