    Bal or tilemaster ??quartz

    Tilemaster Adhesives have been using Ultimate for around 10 years for installing quartz tiles, and to our knowledge have never had a failure. We have seen failures, be it an adhesive other than Ultimate used to stick the tiles, screeds that are still too wet to tile and poor workmanship among...

    Bal or tilemaster ??quartz

    Afternoon, The answer to your question is yes - we will guarantee that the quartz tile won't curl when using Ultimate. As you have rightly said, there are so many variations of product out there and different factors that can cause an issue with the tile, but using Tilemaster Ultimate alone...

    Bal or tilemaster ??quartz

    Hi Chris, Tilemaster Ultimate would be a suitable adhesive for your intended installation. Tilemaster Ultimate is suitable for installing quartz tiles due to it's polymer content and its low water content. As other members have mentioned previously, the S2 properties aren't needed in your...

    BAL Bal GT1 Admixture..........

    Hi Andy, I realize this may arrive too late, however using BAL GT1 with Grout 3000 would be OK. For obvious reasons we'd prefer Flexmaster to be used, but where it is needed, GT1 will be suitable. I don't believe GT1 to be a PVA, although it is a form of enhanced liquid polymer that will...

    S2 adhesive & membrane required?

    There appears to be some conflict of interest here. As a tile adhesive manufacturer, we will always advise the correct product from our range to suit the application needs. As some members here have already pointed out above, Schluter do not advise an S2 adhesive being used either to adhere, or...

    Tanking

    Afternoon All, In reality, there is no right or wrong way with regards to where in the process of building up the layers a tanking solution can be applied. We would normally advise to tank first, being that the substrates are tanked prior to a tiling installation being installed over the top...

    What grout for wetroom floors? discuss!

    Nicobond

    Spot on Lee - we recommend using our Ultimate S2 and have done for many years - it works perfectly well. Most companies do recommend using a 2 part latex based adhesive and again I have heard of no problems using this method.

    Polypipe Overlay Advice

    You are quite right in what you are saying, why can't we tile directly to the overlay system? The simple answer is that you can, but due to the fact that we have had a varied response from Polypipe's technical department in the past, we decided to put our own system together. My understanding...
