Correct adhesive for quartz tiles

[mike1979]

Ok people today I've installed my aqua boards on a wooden floor done all the necessaries I've bought single part flexi and the customer turned up with quartz tiles!! Will single part be ok do you think

 

[cam_low]

Recommended is two part flexi if memory serves me correctly!

 

[mike1979]

Thought so looks like I need to take the sticky back then what a bugger

I've fitted quartz with Weber Spf & not had a bother.

 

[mike1979]

On the bag it basically says everything but not quartz I've got grey single part flex

 

[Stef]

I think it's meant to be an s2 adhesive you use for quartz.
I foned CTD a while back when fitting Gulf Stone Quartz & they stated that weber spf would be suitable.

I'm fed up now lol I've used every tile but never quartz I thought she was getting normal tiles I've bought 1 part flex and grey flex grout what does everyone recommend I use please

 

[dave l and l]

2 part

She has'nt got ufh going in....

No underfloor heating at all floor boards completely screwed down and i mean screwed down to the death !! Primed flex adhesive with knauf aqua boards laid on top again screw to the death all joints taped and skimmed with flex adhesive and primed I spent a lot of time on it and she said she was getting normal cheap floor tiles so I got 1 part flexible and grey flexible grout she appears today with polished marble quartz so I can take the sticky and grout back and I can stick the extra on the bill no point asking advice at the tile shop they didn't know what a cement board was ??? So what do you think 2 part flex will grey be ok and what about grout

 

[White Room]

Personally I'd go for a 2 part addy and a good flexible grout....

 

[mike1979]

Yes I will do no point with additive in the grout then I suppose I've got flexible grout it's grey so may change it to white does it make any difference if the 2 part flex is grey or white

This is what you need Mapei Granirapid Grey or white 2 Part adhesive. (Suitable for use with Quartz tiles) The only thing i would use.

Always try and establish at quote stage what type of tiles the customer is gonna go with. then you can tailor quote to go with it. Or you give them a quote for ceramics and say anything else is gonna cost you more, but lets keep in touch so there are no surprises!!
2 part for me and a good flexi grout.

 

[mike1979]

Yep I agree moment of I didn't think it's not too much of a prob to nip the sticky back and get the proper stuff I did say to her prices varies on the type of tile and she said I'm getting normal cheap porceline so I got the sticky and she changed her mind I told her it b extra and that fine so two part flexible and flexible grout it is then I don't care what make it is as long as it's suitable for the job
