Bellegrove ceramics

[DARRELL]

Hi I use to use topps tiles for my adhesive and grout. After there price incress. I shopped around and found bellegrove ceramics in Dartford Kent.
I just cant beleve the prices of there adhesive & grouts. They use Ultra and trims from tile rite. I got a bag of fexable rapidset adhesive 20kg £10.75, grout 5kg black flexable £5.48 and trims £1.00 for a 2.4mtr lenth 6 & 9mm. I havent used there wall adhesive when I have Ill let you now..:whatchutalkingabout

if its ultra bucket gear its spot on. self priming as well

Ultra Progrip HG is nice to use. Performs well and is good and cheap.

I'm still not sure about the rapid set, though, I found it to be very dark and it goes from beig workable to rock 'ard in, what seemed like, a matter of seconds.

I like their self levellers, too.

you have to be quick with the rapid mate. great for small jobs when you need to grout fast

Trade depot are doing 3 for 2 at the moment on thier Mapei adhesive. That works out at just over £8 a bag ( 20 k ) for grey flexy. Great pot life as well

CTD are doing some great deals on Mapei products......like mapei d1 for £5 a tub...etc etc..

Hi Dave yes CTD is my local shop but dont stock Mapei. Their deals are normally Weber products which Im not fond of. Dont know if youve heard of Stonefix ( www.stpuk.com ) grey thick bed ( 20 mm ) flexy £10 a bag

I have heard of it but not tried it......

You local CTD will order Mapei down from newcastle head branch for you....

 

[groucho]

Ok didnt know that might try that ta

I used the rapid set and had now trouble. I mixed it up in a 10ltr wall adhesive bucket and yes it is quick at setting but thats a good thing if you want to get back on and grout...
