URGENT: Pls advise on porcelain tile adhesive

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 2.57 PM

Hi, My builder has used Nicobond Ultragrip on porcelain tiles on my bathroom walls. I'm told this is not the right adhesive for porcelain tiles. Pls could you advise if this needs to be changed? Please advise me on the best adhesive or brand name to use? To be honest I'm having lots of headaches with my builder. Thanks in advance. Regards Hilda

Good Morning Hilda This is a hard one to answer. Nicobond make many adhesives so for porcelain you need the correct one, it would have to be a power format that would need mixing Nicobond do not make a ready mixed adhesive for porcelain. Personally we use this type for porcelain NICOBOND LARGE FORMAT FLOOR TILE ADHESIVE GREY 20kg A premium quality single part, fast setting, water resistant polymer modified, pourable flow bed adhesive for easier installation of large format (300x300 or bigger) ceramic, porcelain and natural stones in interior or exterior situations. Suitable for use with underfloor heating. Coverage: 2-4kg per m2 Have a quick look here and you should get all infomation you require http://www.rutlandtilegallery.co.uk/powder-adhesives.html Hope this is of some help to you and your job is carried out to your satisfaction Aldcope Building Services Ltd
