    Is it essential to use sealant over grout on corners in tiled wet room?

    As I undertand it, You use one or the other. If you can see mould behind the sealant then moisture is getting behind. The reason why sealant is used is that wall can move slightly and grout would crack, so a sealant is better because it stretches with the wall. The gap in the corners need to...

    3mm tub adhesive versus cement ad

    Am I the only person that has read the instructions on these tub adhesives?.....they state a 3mm bed with a square notched trowel or use the spreader supplied. Also says open time of 20-30mins...although I know someone who used it for hours...will the whole tub really be un-useable in 20 mins?

    3mm tub adhesive versus cement ad

    What is the advantage of using tub adhesive which typically is spread at a 3mm thickness over cement adhesive which I was trained to use at a thickness of 8mm. I was told once the tub is open it starts to go off and a slow/amateur tiler would be better with cement adhesive. Discuss!!
