Hi guys.
Tried not to post such basic questions but I feel I must due to a spinning head!
Bought some travertine for the kitchen floor and I would like to know:-
1) What is 'backfilling'. do I need to do it.
2) do I seal the front and back
3) what adhesive would you recommend to affix to previosly fixed tiles (I know, sorry to all the purists!). There is a small area of concrete to be covered also.
4) If I use white adhesive, would it seep through and cause problems with my proposed biege grout, ie, come all the way though the various small gaps.
5) Does the addy need to be flexible. All the tiles already laid are very secure
6) I plan to use unmixed addy if poss because of the price, name your favourites please.
7) I just read a post about grouting the whole tile and I plan to do this in case it makes any difference to your replies.
I know this is probably all very basic stuff, but I thank you all kindly in advance.
Paul
