Tile Adhesives and Grouts

Our range of tile adhesive and grout provides the structural foundation for both indoor and outdoor tiling projects. Whether you are installing large-format porcelain, natural stone, or ceramic mosaics, choosing the correct bond ensures your tiles remain secure and crack-free. We stock high-performance formulas designed for various substrates, including concrete floors, plasterboard walls, and timber surfaces. 

Choosing the Right Tile Adhesive and Grout 

Selecting the correct product depends on your tile material and the installation environment. For wet areas like showers or outdoor patios, use water-resistant adhesives and flexible tile adhesive grout to accommodate temperature shifts and moisture. Fast-setting options are ideal for busy households, allowing for foot traffic within hours, while standard-set formulas offer a longer working time for complex layouts. 

FAQs About Tile Adhesives  

Do I need a specific adhesive for floor tiles?  

Yes, floor tiles require a stronger, often flexible adhesive to withstand weight and movement, especially when used with underfloor heating. 

Can I use the same product for both adhesive and grout?  

While some "fix and grout" products exist for small ceramic repairs, professional installations usually require separate high-quality adhesives and dedicated grouts for better durability. 

How long does tile adhesive take to dry?  

Rapid-set adhesives typically cure in 3 to 6 hours, whereas standard adhesives usually require 24 hours before you can apply grout or walk on the surface. 

How do I calculate how much adhesive I need?  

Coverage depends on your trowel notch size and the flatness of the substrate, but generally, a 20kg bag covers approximately 4 to 5 square metres.
