granite tile

[piehead]

Starting a floor tomorrow, 15m2 of tiles. The tiles look like a granite tile, would they need sealing before grouting or not at all and also would it be ok to use a wet cutter for cutting.

Hi piehead,
if they are polished granite i wouldn't seal until after grouting personally.
A wet saw will cut them very precisely but edge cuts where skirting may be going on top might just cut ok on your dry cutter,i use a sigma and have no probs cutting them.
