Mapei prices

[poynton phil]

That does seem a little dear on the addy. I just got a price for 5kg mapei gum £26 something from TG, and at a small local tile shop it was £14 something. I cant work out why there is such a BIG BIG difference.

That a damn good price,that would have saved or put an extra £80.80 in my pocket :yikes: and thats just the adhesive.
Cheers.

Bloody right there Andrew !!! not nice that! hard enough to make a good living here on the low rates! a bit on the addy would be nice.

Copy that. TG do some very very good prices on Mapei for tilersforums members. 🙂

Do they???

I've not noticed any difference and all my adhesives, grouts, slc are Mapei supplied by TG

Have you set up an account via Tilersforums? there is added discount over and above there normal trade discount. I havent used them yet as it's a bit too far for the odd bit here and there but they did me a quote for a larger job i was pricing (not that large) and they came out very cheap

See Armatile in Armagh sells Biscem. If they do the same prices as Huttons on the Shore Road then you're talking £6 bucket of showerproof, £8 rapidset, £11 flexi rapidset, £11 white SPF, £35 rubber crumb. Bargain stuff, the white single part flexi is exactly the same as (nearly sure it's made in the same factory) £18 Technik OPF, twice the adhesive that Keraflex Maxi is. Nice stuff to work with, although the rapidset can go off fairly quickly in a warm room. Worth looking into if you want to make a few quid on materials.
