Flexible grout

[rich hand]

I once used some flexible grout that was so flexible it was rubbery when set and never cracked on a fairly bouncy floor. I can't remember the brand. Since then i have used the Granfix Ultimate flex on a more solid floor and it has cracked 3 times.

Anyone any recommendations as to the best flexible grout, ideally the rubbery stuff?

bal non flexi grout with gt1 admix as above.....floors should be solid before tiling anyway

Wide joint with GT1 additive

would that be the Superflex Wide joint?

Standard BAL WJ + GT1 flexible additive. BAL dont recommend adding GT1 to a flexible grout. As has been said, if the floor aint solid, the grout will crack anyway.

Is Bal standard Wide Joint with GT1 better than Bal Flexible without GT1 for timber floors?

 

[Rookery]

Std WJ + GT1 is more flexible than Superflex WJ.

Std WJ + GT1 is more flexible than Superflex WJ.

In a word........YES

I should also ask what would be the best adhesive for the same timber floor. I am wondering about BAL Max Flex Fibre or BAL Standard with AD1. Any others?

bal single part fast flex, is what I use on wooden floors, but as already said the floor should be prep correctly first...

Granfix is rubbish IMHO away I think they have been going that way for a while I've had a few problems with them myself
