Hi fellow tillers! I’m not a DIYer, more an individual who has begun research and supply of materials to our fitter to renovate our bathroom (conventional bath tub, toilet, sink and shower tray ie no part of it is a wet room). I’m hoping you knowledgeable guys out there can assist with my...

Hi, I'm a "capable DIY-er" and have recently completed a major house extension (with help!). Now I'm tiling and fitting out an en-suite and main bathroom. I have a question about how to finish tiles against a shower tray (resin+acrylic capped). Complication is I've used "Link Removed" which...

Hi, I am resealing my old bath, and have taken off as much old sealant as I can with a sealant scraper, sealant eater, knife blade and a lot of patients. The tile surface is completely cleaned up, as is the bath surface. What I am wondering is as there is still some old sealant that wont come...

Hi has anyone used Evo-stik kitchen, shower and bath sealant before? First time I have used it (as supplied) but when I used my mist spray before removing excess I found that the water turned milky white. Checked today and seal seems okay. First time I have noticed such a white residue when...

The silicon sealant in my shower is going black with mould and we cannot clean it, so needs to be renewed I guess. I have read a few tips on this and am ready to go apart from one Q. The vertical corner silicon joints are still perfect, only the joint round the shower tray needs replacing...

I have been asked a couple of times recently if there is any sealer suitable for ceramics. The reasons were to fill in the ridges and holes to stop dirt getting trapped and also to give extra sheen to a dull porcelain floor. I know aqua mix has a high gloss sealer but it seems it is only...

Sealant - what a total nightmare. The tiling is easy but using Silicon sealant to finish off lets me down every time. I squeeze it out through the gun in an uneven blobby line, it continues to ooze out the nozzle all over everything while I am desperately trying to loosen the pressure of the...

Saw a demo today of a product I had not heard of before, Rapid-All-in-1 Stone and tile impregnator by Universeal. It is a 1 or 2 coat impregnator that works unbelievably well. I saw it used and waterproof very porous brick, kitchen roll, newspaper, slate and travertine. Once applied and...

Hi Folks, Would really appreciate some help here. I have limited knowledge but have taken some advice to date. I believe some small amounts of water is penetrating my bathroom shower grout or unglazed tiles. I know ideally I should start again and get a competent tiler to redo the job, but...

Hi, I've just got a patio laid, 600 square tumbled travertine with 10mm joints - same as indoors, looks great. Do I need to seal it to keep it looking good - in fact, as it's outdoors, is there any point? There is an outdoor table etc on it so I suppose food stains are possible... Also...

I installed a kitchen floor using Pilkington fully vitrified beige coloured tile over underfloor heated (wet pipes under concrete skim – not an electronic mat), it works and looks very well. Here’s the issue. We used Nicobond beige coloured grout with the chemical flex adder (as recommended by...

I had a walk in showed installed last year and it wasn't long before the sealant between the last tile and tile tray started to come away (I could see gaps). I refilled the sealant, but it has gone all dark and I am worried about damp. I am now noticing that there is no grout between the last...

Hi all, this is my first post I’ve been browsing the forum for advice before I do a tiling job on my ensuite. So far I have purchased a Rubi Star N 60 plus tile cutter and tile drills as recommended by forum members. OK so the ensuite is upstairs the floor is 18mm thick tongue and groove in...

I have removed a shower cabinet to replace with a new one. Any suggestions what I can use to remove the old sealant from glazed tiles?

Please could anyone advise me what sealant I might try for a marble mosaic wetroom floor (but it is the grout that is the problem). This is the story so far: I have a wet area shower with tiled walls and floor. The tanking is holding up ok, but a small amount of water is getting between...

Any ideas where I could find a very dark brown Silicon (or other) sealant. To seal and fill behind some laminate worktop in a bathroom. Not really in a wet area - so doesn't need anything special. Just something that will fill. Most importantly it needs to be as dark a brown as possible. Paul

putting down ply for kitchen floor, and just wondering everyones prefered choice of product for sealing the ply? Why and where you usually pick it up,and price range? I usually avoid getting ady or grout from b and q like the plague, but was told by a joiner that they have the best, but i...

Hi Have used a profile to Silicon between an aluminium shower screen and the tiled wall that it is attached onto to give the job a clean look. Unfortunately I managed to smear some Silicon onto the aluminium. I want to remove the excess whilst keeping the seal. Does anyone have any ideas...
