Best adhesive for 200 x 500 x 8.5mm tiles - Tile Advice

[Jkb]

Hi,

First post here and a real tiling novice. I plan on putting up some 200 x 500 x 8.5mm wall tiles in my bathroom but not sure on the best adhesive, some adhesives I have found say they are suitable for max 300 x 300mm, I take it it’s limited to do with the weight of each tile? Any advice please?

You will need a cement based adhesive, I can highly recommend Tilemaster Standard Set Setaflex.


Steer clear of rapid set adhesives if you are a novice, you will throw away more than you use.

Don’t use ready mixed adhesive!

I would recommend tilemaster

If you are using light coloured grout I would use a white adhesive

Hi,
Thanks fir the replies above.
Because of my location, I am getting a £15 delivery cost on the above recommended item. Is there any similar item that b & q or Topps Tiles provide? Both have local stores.

Regards

Topps will do a white single part slow set flexible adhesive either bal or topps own brand
