How do I stop grout from staining? |
 |
We recommend that all new grout is sealed with a sealant from our Aquamix range. If the grout is old, there are also a range of cleaners available from Aquamix that you can use and then you would seal after this. |
 |
What if I wanted to attempt my own tiling? |
 |
We are more than happy to advise clients on attempting their own tiling – we also have a range of tools available, for hire or purchase, available in store. |
 |
Can timber floors be tiled over? |
 |
We advise to overlay with tile and slate underlay in order to brace any flex in the floor. Alternatively, you can use a high flexible adhesive with grout booster. |
 |
Are tiles slippery? |
 |
Yes, some are, but by using our specialist coatings this problem can be solved, enabling you to choose from our wide range of tiles. |
 |
Why do I need waterproofing? |
 |
All critical wet areas, for example showers, need to be waterproofed to protect the substrate from leaking. It is a common myth that GIB is waterproof – it is only water resistant. We use a waterproofing membrane under our tiling that is also anti-fracture, so in the event of any movement in your substrate you will be protected. |
