Tile Market - Floor Adhesives
Your Sales Advisor in Tile Market will be able to advise you on a suitable adhesive at time of purchase.
- Always use according to the manufacturer's instructions and apply with a solid trowel.
- Lay each tile on to the adhesive firmly twisting slightly to ensure a solid bed and to prevent voids under the tile.
- Surplus adhesive can be removed from the surface of the tiles using a damp sponge or cloth.
- Again work in small areas at a time, and use the spirit level frequently to check that the tiles are fixed flat.
- Leave the floor to set for about 24 ours before grouting (unless using Rapid set adhesive).
- In bathrooms, special attention should be paid to sealing the gap between the wall and base, particularly where the location is on a suspended floor.
- Use an additive when fixing fully vitrified tiles such as porcelain - your Tile Market representative can advise you on this at time of purchase.
