Be sure Darren, that the adhesive and grout supplied are suitable for porcelain. They must have porcel bond plus technology if Bal, or flexible if not.....Gaz

Needs to state flexible or suitable for porcelain large format on the bag, that should to it.

No special bits needed but a flat floor is really needed as if you have bumps the tiles because of their size can fly and cause you level problems.

A good majority of our adhesives & grouts already have polymer added to them, so they can stick to porcelain mate....Gaz

Darren are these the polished porcelain from b & q by any chance?If so they stain very easily and i contrary to what anyone else says always seal them,you will find out what i mean if it is these tiles,also do you have a cutter big enough for these tiles?What is the substrate you are tiling too?

its on a new build, all rooms downstairs except living room,concrete floor i think!
he told me the size & said its shinny but never said where he got them from!
knowing my luck its the ones you talk about!!:mad2:
 
Make sure the screed is dried through for the correct time...make sure you hoover clean each inch..yes really...dust is your enemy - and prime, and let to dry. Correct adhesive spec. as all others have said, but this is supplied by others so not yr call anyway. Remember just because they are 'big' tiles doesnt mean it all goes down quick and is therefore cheaper...doesnt work that way!
