If you have been tiling that long you should know the diffrence between grout and adhesive mate tiles dont fall off due to dodgy grout.

Me too, my nearest and largest supplier only stocks granfix grout. Not had any problems at all.

Seems to be a lot of posts recently knocking granfix, who did you speak to in the tech department.

What adhesive did you use? Was it a tubbed by any chance?

This is the first post by this member and at least 3 of the replies have contained comments bordering on churlish and 1 removed by administration.
I'am sure even a regular contributor would find the tone unacceptable and wonder what's the point of posting.
If you haven't got anything constructive/helpful/amusing to add why bother.
This is my opinion of this threads content.

I've use Granfix grout many times with no issues, although it is not my favourite. Have you had a grout failure, i.e. cracking, or has the adhesive failed causing the grout to fall out or crack?
