FAQs

How to remove tile adhesive?

Before re-tiling, you may need to remove any existing tile adhesive. There are a couple of methods you can try, depending on the type and condition of the adhesive. You can use a heat gun, adhesive remover or scraping tools to gently peel or scrape off the adhesive from the surface. Always ensure proper ventilation and safety precautions when using these methods. 

How much tile adhesive do I need?

That depends on the size and type of tiles, the surface area to be covered and the recommended coverage stated by the adhesive manufacturer. To calculate the quantity you’ll need, measure the surface area to be tiled and consult the packaging or manufacturer's guidelines for coverage rates. You may want to buy slightly more adhesive to account for any wastage or mistakes during installation.

How long does tile adhesive take to dry?

Drying time depends on factors like the type of adhesive, ambient room temperature, humidity layers and the thickness of the adhesive layer. Most tile adhesives will dry and set within 24 and 48 hours, but always check the manufacturer's instructions for a specific time.
