Sticking Mosaic tiles with Silicone - Tile Advice

[menjee]

Help!
I am having my bathroom tiled with porceline mosaic tiles, some of which are in a shower. My bathroom fitter wants to stick them on with Silicone, is this ok or not?

Thanks

 

[kilty55]

nope,please dont let him do this

No, a flexible adhesive should be used.

 

[kilty55]

has he started tiling yer menjee,if i was you i would look for another tiler

 

[Mike]

sounds like he should stick to fitting bathrooms and not tiling

 

[johnryan]

is he a bathroom fitter or a tiler? i'd be wary of letting him carry on after suggesting that.

 

[Stewart]

Definitely not........ A quality SPF adhesive should be used.

Your 'tiler' obviously doesn't know what he's doing and he's going to be putting tiles on where there's going to be a lot of water. I think you should look for someone else.

Definitely not, unless you want serious problems, as said above, get a pro in, we're not touting for work but trying to help you to a proper installation.
